security of any user names and passwords issued (including those of any

You may not use the
Program for any illegal or unauthorized purpose. You must not, in the use of
the Program, violate any laws in your jurisdiction (including but not limited
to copyright laws).
Referral Links &
Promotion
Once you have signed up
for the Program you will be provided with a URL link that must be used to
identify you when placing a link from your site, email or other communications
to the Hannah Hair Factory website. It is your responsibility to ensure each
such link is correctly formatted.
We may also provide
graphical images that can be used within the links to promote Hannah Hair
Factory. You may not modify these images in any way. We reserve the right to
change the images at any time without notice.
You will be solely
responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of your site and
for all materials that appear on your site
You may not use our name
or graphics in any bulk email whatsoever unless we have given our advanced
written consent. We may terminate the Agreement if any meaningful spam
complaints naming us or our product(s) result from your marketing activities.
You may not issue any
press release with respect to this Agreement or your participation in the
Program; such action may result in your termination from the Program. In
addition, you may not in any manner misrepresent or embellish the relationship
between us and you, say you develop our Product(s), say you are part of Hannah
Hair Factory or express or imply any relationship between us and you or any
other person or entity, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement.
Referral Fees
For the sale of a product(s)
to be eligible to earn a referral fee, the customer must click-through a link
from your site, email, or other communications to the Hannah Hair Factory
website and sign up within 90 days of the initial click-through. If they fail
to sign up within those 90 days and later return without following your link,
you will not earn a referral fee.
We will only pay referral
fees on links that are automatically tracked and reported by our systems. For
our systems to track the referral, the visitor must have cookies enabled. We
will not pay referral fees if someone says they signed up through you but it
was not tracked by our system.
The referral fee is 10%
of our revenue from customers that you refer. The referral fee will be credited
to your Affiliate account once the customer pays their product(s). Referral
fees are only earned if a customer makes a payment in full.
Payment
Accrued referral fees are
paid via bank transfer roughly once per month and only when your accrued
referral fees total R1000 or more. The Affiliate will then raise an
invoice to Hannah Hair Factory for the indicated amount. You must have a valid
bank account to receive referral fees, as we do not offer payment via
cheque/check, credit card, cash or other method.
Customer payments
refunded or payments charged-back due to credit card fraud do not qualify for
referral fees. We may delay crediting of referral fees subject to risk analysis
considerations and Anti-Money Laundering procedures.
A summary of sign ups and
statement of referral fees is available to the Affiliate by logging into their
Affiliate account.
The referral fee
structure is subject to change at our discretion.
We reserve the right to
disqualify referral fees earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly
aggressive, questionable sales or marketing methods.
All fees are exclusive of
all taxes, charges, levies, assessments and other fees of any kind imposed on
your involvement in this Agreement and shall be the responsibility of, and
payable by you.
We reserve the right to
check and change commissions on the basis of orders actually paid, the
notification e-mail is not understood as a confirmed commission - this is only
a notification, and every payment will be verified based on real transactions.
