We are a small team of people who are doing our best to make a difference on the planet. At the same time, we realize that structure has to be in place to make a company like ours succeed.

Your participation in the Program grants us your consent to use, access, store, receipt, and disclose any and all such information, consistent with LifeLeap's policies and procedures.

AFFILIATE ACCOUNT ENROLLMENT

To create an Affiliate Account, you agree to submit a completed Affiliate Program application, which is located on our website. Your account will automatically be approved. We may evaluate your application and if at some point we determine (in our sole discretion) that you are unsuitable as an Affiliate, we will notify you of your rejection. Unsuitable Affiliates likely include those that promote violence, sexually explicit materials, discrimination, illegal activities, and/or violate intellectual property rights or trademarks. By participating in our Program, you agree that you will not engage in any such activities.

AFFILIATE RESPONSIBILITIES

It is understood that the Affiliate will introduce Company products and services to their current and prospective customers and will comply with all laws, including those that govern email marketing and anti-spam laws. The Affiliate will be fully responsible for any costs related to maintaining or marketing the Affiliate Program, including but not limited to costs associated with creation, hosting, modification, or improvements to the Affiliate's website; cost of internet marketing; offline marketing costs; postage; and all other costs and expenses. The Company reserves the right to accept or reject any prospective customers.

We reserve the right to reject affiliate commissions for any reason.

These emails will be sent to affiliates only, on an ad-hoc basis, and may include important information regarding the LifeLeap Institute affiliate program. These emails will also provide you with relevant news and updates to help you effectively promote LifeLeap Institute. As an affiliate you may be privy to embargoed or time-sensitive information in these emails (this information may only be promoted after an embargo is lifted).

CHANGES

We reserve the right to change, add, modify, or remove sections of this agreement at any time, and change or discontinue any aspect of its Program at any time. Modifications may include, for example, changes in the scope of available referral fees, referral fee schedules, payment procedures, product prices, and Program rules.

We may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount is paid.

In addition, we make no representation that the operation of LifeLeap, our affiliate tracking system, or our site will be uninterrupted or error-free and in no event will we be liable to the affiliate or any third party for any damages, including loss of profits, lost savings or other special, consequential, or incidental damages arising out of the operation of or the inability to operate the site, affiliate tracking system, or ordering system, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no arbitration under this agreement shall be joined to an arbitration involving any other party subject to this agreement, whether through class arbitration proceedings or otherwise.

MISCELLANEOUS

This agreement will be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Florida, without reference to rules governing choice of laws.

Subject to that restriction, this agreement will be binding on, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable against the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Our failure to enforce your strict performance of any provision of this agreement will not constitute a waiver of our right to subsequently enforce such provision or any other provision of this agreement. You may not issue any press release with respect to this agreement or your participation in the Program without first submitting the material to LifeLeap and receiving its consent in writing; such action may result in your termination from the Program.

TRACKING

We supply you with all of your Affiliate Links in your private, password-protected Affiliate Control Panel. An Affiliate Link is copied from your Affiliate Control Panel and then pasted on your site, newsletters or e-mails. All of the links we give you have a special code unique to you that serves to track all of your commissions. These links may either be attached to text or to a banner. When a visitor clicks on these links and comes into our site, your Affiliate information is tracked. The tracking day will start from the time a customer clicks on the affiliate's link. Within the cookie time, every order made by this customer at merchant website will automatically result in commissions to the affiliate. Even if a customer signs up to our website and does not make a purchase, this customer is assigned to corresponding affiliate and commission will be granted for any future purchases. We also have a sophisticated tracking system so if a customer calls, we are able to assign this customer's sales to an affiliate when applicable. If during that visit to our website, the visitor makes a purchase, the commission will be given to you based upon the other sections of this agreement. You must ensure that each of the links between your site and LifeLeap's site properly utilizes the link tracking system. Any change you make to your Affiliate link may cause the tracking to no longer function properly. If this link is altered in any way after copying from our webpage, we take no responsibility for any missed sales. We have the right to monitor the content on your Web Site in a commercially reasonable manner as we believe necessary to monitor use of the links and for compliance with the terms of this agreement. We have the right to notify you of any reasonable changes that you need to make to comply with our guidelines for the use of the Links and to otherwise comply with the terms of this agreement; and you agree to promptly make such changes. You agree that LifeLeap will be allowed to place an identifying code in each Link that will identify the origin of a user that arrives directly at our Site by clicking on the Link. Though we believe our tracking system is accurate, we make no representation regarding the ability of the system to track any specific customer for any specific length of time. You agree not to dispute or challenge the tracking performed by our Affiliate Management Software that administers this program.

LifeLeap grants a non-exclusive, revocable, limited right to the Affiliate to use our Affiliate Program resources available only in the Affiliate Section of our site, including but not limited to banners, articles, and affiliate links. All images, programs, HTML code, and content provided by LifeLeap shall remain the sole property of LifeLeap, and no part shall be deemed assigned or licensed to the Affiliate except as explicitly provided for in this document.

You may not create Content (banner, text, etc.) representing LifeLeap, our Site, or our products, qualified or otherwise, without written consent from LifeLeap, unless otherwise stated.

SERVICE/PRODUCT PROCESSING AND AFFILIATE COMPENSATION

LifeLeap will process requests for products placed by customers who contact us via internet, phone, postal mail, or in-person. We reserve the right to reject requests that do not comply with requirements established by LifeLeap. We will be responsible for all aspects of product processing and fulfillment, clerical and administrative, including but not limited to preparation of service forms and processing of payments and cancellations. Additionally, LifeLeap will handle all customer service and sales functions, including but not limited to tracking of sales made to customers by LifeLeap and customer disputes.

QUALIFYING SERVICES

Products that are eligible to earn referral fees under the rules set forth in this agreement are referred to as "Qualifying Products." LifeLeap will only give Affiliate payments for the specific products that are outlined and available in the Affiliate Program. You acknowledge that, by participating in the Affiliate Program and giving referrals of potential LifeLeap customers, you give consent to LifeLeap to access, receive, store, use, and disclose any and all such information, consistent with LifeLeap's policies and procedures, even if the customer(s) purchase products that are not outlined/available as "Qualifying Products." Product prices and availability may vary from time to time. Although we use reasonable efforts to present accurate information, we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular product.

OPERATIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES

You agree to be solely responsible for any personal resources you use as an Affiliate. For example, you will be solely responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of any website, e-mail newsletter, or forum and the appropriateness of anything included in that resource. We disclaim all liability for these matters. Further, you will indemnify and hold us harmless from all damages, claims, and expenses relating to the development, operation, maintenance of such resources. As a condition to your participation in the Affiliate Program, you agree to comply with all laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, licenses, permits, judgments, decisions or other requirements of any governmental authority that has jurisdiction over you, whether those laws, etc. are now in effect or later come into effect during the time you are an Affiliate.

PROMOTIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES

LifeLeap in no way participates in mass unsolicited e-mailing (i.e. spamming), and all Affiliates are expected to abide by this policy as well. Violation of this policy will result in the termination of this agreement and immediate dismissal from LifeLeap's affiliate program, with no refunds. Mailings are generally acceptable, as long as the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of your products, and recipients have the option to remove themselves from future mailings. You agree to make no such promotions that suggest or imply any false or misleading information regarding your identity. For example, promotional e-mail message headers must be authentic and valid, with accurate From, Subject, and Removal, Unsubscribe or Opt-Out information. You agree to make no such promotions that use mousetraps, such as windows that spawn new windows or otherwise resist being closed. You agree that all such promotions will be fully compliant with US laws, including US federal and state laws regarding network abuse, unsolicited messaging, and FTC Advertising Rules and Disclosure Rules.

PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS

We will only pay referral fees on products and products after product requests and payments from visitors have occurred. There may be an authorization period, usually up to one week, between when the payment is made by the customer and when we payout commissions to Affiliates. You may not purchase products for your own use and receive Affiliate fees. If you are an Affiliate and you would like purchase one of our products, it is your responsibility to delete all tracking cooking in your computer before purchase is made. You may not directly or indirectly offer any person or entity any consideration or incentive for purchasing any of LifeLeap's products. This includes without limitation, payment of money (including any rebate), or granting of any unofficial discount. You may not make any product requests, or engage in other transactions of any kind on behalf of any third party, or authorize, assist, or encourage any other person or entity to do so. You may not attempt to circumvent the referral fee schedule or artificially increase your referral fees. You may not attempt to intercept traffic from, or divert referral fees from, any web site that participates in the Program. If we determine, at the sole discretion of LifeLeap, that you have engaged in any such activities that contradict this agreement, we may (without limiting any other rights or remedies available to us) withhold any Affiliate fees otherwise payable to you under this agreement and/or terminate this agreement. You understand that the Company may temporarily hold any portion of the funds in your Affiliate account if we determine such action is needed to secure the payment and performance of all liabilities, obligations, and indebtedness you may incur with the Company.

PAYMENT METHOD

Payments will be made via PayPal or check on the 1st day of every month if your accumulated commission totals $50 USD or more. Checks over $1000 are sent at our expense by US Priority Mail (US) or Global Priority Mail (Europe, Canada, Australia, etc) wherever possible. Because no postal service is 100% reliable, if your check is significantly delayed, you may request that we send you a new check. To issue a new check we have to pay a service fee to the bank network to recall (void) the first check. A $20 cancellation fee applies. To request that a check be reissued, please Contact Us.

VOIDED PAYCHECKS

LifeLeap paychecks are VOID after 90 days from the date of issue. We can issue a new check if the stale check is in our possession. Please write "VOID" across the check and send it to the following address. After we receive the check, a new one will be issued on the next payout date:

LifeLeap Institute
attn: Paycheck Department
1563 Capital Circle SE, Suite 56
Tallahassee, Florida, 32301

STOLEN PAYCHECKS

In some countries mail theft is not uncommon. If a paycheck is fraudulently endorsed (deposited by someone other than you) you will need to open a fraud case with our bank. If the bank determines that fraud did occur, they will reimburse us the funds so that we may issue you another check. We cannot reissue a check prior to the funds being returned to us or prior to the completion of the investigation by the bank.

REFUNDED SALES

If a customer dispute cannot be resolved we may be forced to refund the sale. When a sale is refunded the customer receives a 100% refund, and payouts from that sale are debited back out of the corresponding Affiliate accounts.

PAYMENT RATE

The commission payout is currently 10% for every sale you generate.

PAY-PER-SALE

We only give affiliate commissions for sales. We do not give commissions for website visits when no purchase is made, calls that don't result in a sale, etc. Our Affiliate Program pays the Affiliate only when a sale results from a visitor who arrives on our site through an Affiliate Link on the Affiliate's website. If the sale does not occur during the visitation session or at a later time, no commission payout will be made.

CHARGEBACK

If the purchaser enters through a Non-Affiliate link, makes an unauthorized payment, makes a duplicate entry, does a payment reversal at any time, does not make full payment, refuses to pay for a product, the payment made to the Affiliate for that purchase shall be rescinded. Calculation of referral fees will include deduction of sales revoked or “charged back” by the customer. Such referral fees will be recovered to the Affiliate if LifeLeap is able to successfully dispute the revocation or chargeback.

TAXES

We are obligated by U.S. federal law to obtain tax information from Affiliates who are U.S. citizens, U.S. residents or U.S. corporations and from Affiliates who are not U.S. citizens or residents but whose businesses are taxable in the U.S. If we believe you are a Affiliate from whom we are obligated to obtain tax information and you do not provide this information to us after we have requested it, we may withhold your referral fee payments until you provide this information or otherwise satisfy us that you are not a person from whom we are required to obtain tax information. You agree that you are responsible to pay all applicable taxes, and to obtain all relevant licenses and permits associated with the legal operation of your enterprise. LifeLeap agrees to issue IRS Tax Form 1099 to Affiliates if their calendar year payments exceed the maximum payout allowed without a 1099 under Federal tax law (currently $600).
