All Links may be modified and/or expanded from time to time throughout the term of this Agreement pursuant to the mutual agreement of the parties hereto. You are not allowed to post any refunds, credits or discounts, or other content concerning Modern Photography Course, unless We have given You prior written permission in each instance. Affiliates may only use coupons and discounts that are provided exclusively through the Affiliate Program. Each Link connecting users of Your site to the pertinent area of Our site will in no way alter the look, feel, or functionality of Our site. Any violations of the terms surrounding links, coupons, refunds, credits or discounts shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and may result in Your termination from the program or withholding of Commissions.

FTC Endorsement Compliance

It is the intent of Modern Photography Course to treat Our customers fairly and to comply fully with all Federal Trade Commissions regulations related to advertising. As such, we require our affiliates to comply with these regulations. This includes, but is not limited to, Federal Trade Commission 16 CFR Part 255: Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, which requires, among other criteria, that material connections between advertisers and endorsers be disclosed. This means that directories, review/rating sites, blogs and other websites, email or collateral that purport to provide an endorsement or assessment of an advertiser (in this case Modern Photography Course) must prominently disclose the fact financial or in-kind compensation is provided from the advertiser.

Modern Photography Course reserves the right to withhold commission fees and cancel the affiliate relationship with you should we determine, at our discretion, that you are not in compliance these or other FTC regulations/guides we deem relevant.

Order Processing

We will process orders placed by Referred Customer who follow the Links from your website to ModernPhotographyCourse.com. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject orders that do not comply with certain requirements that we may establish from time to time. All aspects of order processing and fulfillment, including Modern Photography Course service, cancellation, processing, refunds and payment processing will be Our responsibility. We will track the Qualified Purchases generated by your website and will make this information available to you through our website. To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and Commission accrual, you must ensure that the Links between your website and our website are properly formatted.

Commission Determination

Under the Affiliate Program, you will be paid a Commission Fee for each Qualified Purchase by a Referred Customer that you refer to Modern Photography Course under and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Referred Customer and each Qualified Purchase must meet the following criteria (the “Criteria”):

Each Referred Customer must make a Qualified Purchase, and provide a valid payment for the purchased Modern Photography Course Products or Services. To generate a Commission Fee for you, each Referred Customer must be an active, qualified customer of Modern Photography Course and must be up-to-date in all payments at the time the Commission Fees are processed and not have been subject to a refund, credit, cancellation, suspension or chargeback.

Modern Photography Course computes and pays commissions once per month.

Each Referred Customer must sign up in a manner, which in our sole judgment, definitively establishes that the Referred Customer was referred directly from you to Modern Photography Course under this Agreement.

Commission Fees may not be paid for the Qualified Purchase if the Referred Customer has been offered or received coupons, refunds, credits or discounts from the Affiliate or if the Referred Customer has joined a business-opportunity program (as determined by Modern Photography Course in its sole discretion) that is managed or participated in by the Affiliate, unless Modern Photography Course has provided its prior written permission.

If a Referred Customer has received a popup with a discounted offer, while leaving our site during their purchase, we will NOT pay commissions on purchase.

Modern Photography Course reserves the right to withhold initial Commissions Fees for Affiliates who are new to the Affiliate program, or who have commissions that are potentially fraudulent as determined by Modern Photography Course in its sole discretion, to determine the legitimacy and cancellation rates of Referred Customers.

Modern Photography Course reserves the right to suspend payment of Commission Fees at any time and indefinitely, if it suspects fraud or other improper activity or a potential breach of any of the terms in this Agreement by the Affiliate or a Referred Customer(s). Modern Photography Course reserves the right to deduct from Affiliate’s current and future Commission Fees any and all Commission Fees corresponding to any fraudulent, questionable, and cancelled Modern Photography Course purchases. Where no subsequent Commission Fee is due and owing, Modern Photography Course will send Affiliate a bill for the balance of such refunded purchase upon termination of the program or termination of the Referred Customer.

Modern Photography Course, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to withhold indefinitely any Commission Fee, and/or to reverse, deny or reject any Commission Fee, for:

Any account/sale which has not been in an approved status in good standing as an account of Modern Photography Course for a period of at least thirty (30) days.

All commissions generated for accounts that may be fraudulent, including but not limited to the use of software that generates real and fictitious information.

If we deem orders to be fraudulent or see a pattern of potentially fraudulent activity, including, without limitation, where there are multiple accounts from the same customer, or referral of accounts which do not comply with this Agreement. We review account information (including site content) to assess referrals.

Altering Our Links in any way.

Referred Customers that have been offered or received coupons, refunds, credits or discounts from the Affiliate or for Referred Customers who have joined a business opportunity program that is managed or participated in by the Affiliate, unless Modern Photography Course has provided written permission.

Customers engaging in “Domain Speculation,” which is determined by the identification of two (2) web hosting accounts with the same Referred Customer’s name, email address, or other identifying characteristic as determined by Modern Photography Course and/or the identification of two (2) or more web hosting accounts that have no content on their websites or have similar content, templates or formatting, as determined by Modern Photography Course.

Affiliates whom we believe may be artificially submitting Referred Customers, engaging in the advertisement of business-opportunity sites (as determined by Modern Photography Course in its sole discretion), using marketing practices that we deem to be unethical or likely to attract fraudulent signups and/or signups with a very low likelihood of renewal.

Modern Photography Course reserves the right to immediately cancel or withhold for later review any Commission Fee based on the foregoing or that otherwise fails to meet the Criteria. It is the responsibility of the Affiliate to monitor the payment, denial and withholding of Commission Fees; Modern Photography Course is not obligated to actively notify Affiliates of the status of Commission Fees. If an Affiliate has a question about a Commission Fee that has been cancelled or withheld, that Affiliate has 30 days from the day the payment was due to contact Modern Photography Course to discuss or reclaim the Commission Fee. Any changes to decisions about cancelled or withheld Commission Fees are strictly at Modern Photography Course’s discretion.

Commissions for any Referred Customer who is associated with any Modern Photography Course reseller, referral or other program may be removed from your payment. In other words, You may not receive double commissions or compensation.

In the event that the Referred Customers that are referred to Modern Photography Course by a specific Affiliate are determined to have an excessive cancellation rate (as determined by Modern Photography Course in its sole discretion), Modern Photography Course reserves the right to withhold or decline pending and future Commission Fees for the Affiliate.

Any attempt by an Affiliate to manipulate, falsify or inflate Referred Customers, Qualifying Purchases or Commission Fees to intentionally defraud Modern Photography Course or violation of any of the terms of this Agreement constitutes immediate grounds for Modern Photography Course to terminate this Agreement and will result in forfeiture of any Commission Fees due to you.

Commission Fee Accrual and Payments

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, we will pay a Commission Fee equal to 25 percent (25%) of the product purchase price excluding discounts, taxes, shipping and other fees.

Commission Fees will be processed approximately 15 to 30 days after the end of the month in which they accrued as set forth below.

To avoid chargebacks on Affiliate Commission Fees due to Our 30-day, money-back guarantee, Modern Photography Course pays Commission only on Qualified Purchases that were made at least 30-days in the past and are active at the time the Commission is calculated.

Commissions will accrue and only become payable once you (i) provide all relevant tax and address documentation pursuant to Section 8 below and (ii) reach a commission level of $50 (the “Commission Threshold”), all as applied only to Qualified Purchases which occurred within three (3) months of the end of the calendar month in which the Qualified Purchases occurred. For example, if you provide sign-ups which result in Qualified Purchases that meet the Commission Threshold on January 10th, you must provide all relevant tax and address documentation by April 30th of the same year in order for Commission Fees to accrue and become payable. All Qualified Purchases eligible to result in Commissions under this Section 6 must remain active and in good standing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in order to remain eligible for accrual. Once a Commission has accrued under this Section 6, the amount of such Commission shall be due and payable to you under the terms of Section 7. Modern Photography Course reserves the right to change the Commission Threshold by amending this Agreement and will notify you for any such amendment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Payment Forms/Types

Commission Fees shall be paid based on the current information in Your Affiliate profile. Please notify us promptly of any change in your address by updating your profile information in the Affiliate console.

You are responsible for informing Modern Photography Course of Your desired Payment form/type:

You may choose to receive Commission Fees in the form of check made out in U.S. currency if you do not live in:

any of the countries listed in our Acceptable Use Policy prohibited by regulations of the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Controls (“OFAC”),
or if you live in any of the following countries: China, Nigeria, Vietnam, India, Egypt, Ghana, Indonesia, Lebanon, Macedonia, Morocco, Pakistan, Romania, Somalia, Ukraine, Russia, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Israel, Turkey or Yugoslavia. This list of countries is subject to change by Modern Photography Course at any time.

When available, You may choose to receive Commission Fees in the form of a PayPal payment. Please refer to PayPal’s policy to ensure you are eligible to receive payment if you reside outside of the United States. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-approved-signup-countries-outside
Modern Photography Course is not responsible for any third-party fees charged by PayPal, bank or other financial institute used to receive Affiliate Commission Fees.

Check payments will only be reissued within 120 days of original issue date in the case of a lost check or stop-payment request. After 120 days, the payment will be voided. Check cancellation fees may be applied.

PayPal payments will only be reissued within 120 days of original issue date in the case of incorrect paypal address or refusal from paypal to accept payment.

You can update or change desired payment form at any time by informing Modern Photography Course in writing. Changes to desired payment form may take up to two payout cycles to take effect.

Modern Photography Course, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to modify the terms of this Commission payment method or schedule at any time. Such changes shall take effect when posted.

Disputes: Affiliate has access to Modern Photography Course’s real-time Affiliate Program statistics and activity and specifically agrees to file any tracking or commission disputes as well as any other disputes and discrepancies within 45 days after the end of the month in which the sale or event that is disputed occurred. Disputes filed after 45 days of the date on which the Qualified Purchase occurred will not be accepted by Modern Photography Course and Affiliate forfeits forever any rights to a potential claim.

Taxes/Address Changes

It is Your responsibility to provide Modern Photography Course with accurate tax and payment information that is necessary to issue a Commission Fee to You. If Modern Photography Course does not receive the necessary tax or payment information within 90 days of a Qualified Purchase which would otherwise trigger Commission Fees, the applicable commissions shall not accrue and no Commission Fees will be owed with respect to such Qualified Purchase.

Each Affiliate is required to submit a W8/W9 tax form.

You are responsible for the payment of all taxes related to the commissions you receive under this Agreement. In compliance with U.S. tax laws, Modern Photography Course will issue a Form 1099 to Affiliates whose earnings meet or exceed the applicable threshold.

You are responsible for informing Modern Photography Course about changes to postal and e-mail addresses, as well as any changes to your name, email address, contact information, tax identification number, or other personal information that will impact Modern Photography Course’s ability to issue a valid Commission payment.

Any address changes must be made in writing at least 15 business days prior to the end of the calendar month in order for Commission Fees for that month to be sent to the revised address.

Reports of Qualified Purchases

You may log into your Affiliate Area to review Your click through and potential Qualified Purchases statistics on a daily basis. The potential Qualified Purchases shown in this report have not been reviewed to confirm they meet all criteria for Qualified Purchases. As such, Commission Fees may not be issued on all Referred Customers that appear in the Affiliate Area.

Obligations Regarding Your Site

You will be solely responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of Your site and for all materials that appear on Your site. Such responsibilities include, but are not limited to, the technical operation of Your site and all related equipment; creating and posting product reviews, descriptions, and references on Your site and linking those descriptions to Our website; the accuracy and propriety of materials posted on Your site (including, but not limited to, all materials related to Modern Photography Course Products and Services); ensuring that materials posted on Your site do not violate or infringe upon the rights of any third party and are not libelous or otherwise illegal.
