3. GlobalPatron’s Rights

As a member of our Affiliate Program, you understand and agree that GlobalPatron has all of the following rights as concern you, among the other rights set forth elsewhere in these Terms:

(a) We Can Monitor your Site: You hereby give us the right to monitor your website to make sure that you are complying with these Affiliate Terms and to notify you of any changes we believe you should make to your website to remain in compliance. We reserve the right to terminate your participation in the Program if you fail or refuse to make such changes after we have so notified you.

(b) We Determine the Terms Applicable to Referred Customers: Persons who become Subscribers of our Service through referrals made in the Affiliate Program will be bound by our  terms of use, rules, and policies, which are subject to change from time to time. We reserve the right to not accept anyone as a Subscriber, and to terminate any Subscriber’s account and/or access to the Service if that party defaults on their subscription fee payment obligations, and/or if in our sole discretion they violate any of our terms, rules, or policies, even if such a termination affects your right to a Commission or the amount of a Commission under the Program.

4. Affiliate Commissions

(a) Eligibility: Except in jurisdictions in which payment of Commissions is not permitted, and/or where we have not accepted your Application to be an Affiliate, and/or where you have violated these Affiliate Terms, you will be eligible to earn Commissions as set forth in this Section 4.

(b) How Commissions Are Earned: A Commission is earned when a third party (not you or GlobalPatron or any of our respective owners, directors, agents, or employees) does all of the following: (i) The party clicks on a Referral Link, (ii) Once at the GlobalPatron web page to which that Referral Link points, the party logs into the GlobalPatron platform, and (iii) The party selects a paid plan and pays the applicable subscription fees. The party that completes these three steps (i)-(iii) herein shall be referred to herein as a “Referred Party”. Commissions are earned for as long as the Referred Party remains a paid Subscriber AND the Affiliates participation in the program has not been terminated.

(c) Commissions Are Not Earned When Any or All of the Following Is the Case: The referring party is not an Affiliate, the Affiliate has violated any provision of these Affiliate Terms, one or more of the steps set forth in 4(b)(i)-(iii) is not present or met, or the party does not log into the GlobalPatron platform within sixty (60) days after initially clicking on the Referral Link.

(d) Amount of Commissions: Where a Commission is due to the Affiliate hereunder, the Affiliate shall receive thirty-percent (30%) of all Subscription fees received by GlobalPatron from the Referred Party, for the duration of the period that the Referred Party maintains a paid Subscription. You acknowledge and agree that GlobalPatron in its sole discretion shall determine the price of any and all Subscriptions, and that discounts and promotions offered or given by GlobalPatron to the Referred Party may impact their Subscription fees, and by extension, the amount of your Commission. Note that other things (for example, those discussed in Sections 4(g) and (h) below, among others) can affect whether you are entitled to a Commission, or the amount of a Commission.

(e) Non-Enterprise Subscriptions Only: Commissions will not be paid on Subscription fees paid by a Referred Party who obtains a Subscription to GlobalPatron Enterprise. (See the definitions section above for more information.) This shall be the case even if the Referred Party converts from a non-enterprise Subscription to an enterprise Subscription during the first 12 months after they first sign up for a Subscription. For example, if the Referred Party initially signs up for a non-enterprise Subscription and they maintain that Subscription for six months but they then convert (upgrade) to a Subscription to GlobalPatron Enterprise, the Affiliate will receive a Commission for the first six months only (the time period during which the party was a non-enterprise Subscriber).

(f) Payment of Commissions: Commissions earned will be calculated on a monthly basis, and will in any case be paid to the Affiliate within sixty (60) days of GlobalPatron’s receipt of payment from the Subscriber. At or before the time such payment is made, GlobalPatron will make information available to the Affiliate (in the Affiliate’s account) showing the total amount of Subscription fees received from each Referred Party during the month at issue and the Commissions earned. GlobalPatron reserves the right to pay after the 60 days in the event of a disagreement with the Affiliate or other confusion over the amount of the Commission. All payments will be made by electronic transfer. Affiliate agrees to keep updated the information and means by which it has informed GlobalPatron it wishes to be paid through an electronic transfer, and further agrees that any failure to do so may result in a delay or inability on the part of GlobalPatron to transmit payments to Affiliate. The only payment method that GlobalPatron can make a commission payment is Stripe.

(g) Other Things That Impact Commissions: You agree that (i) we will not pay you a Commission where the Referred Party signs up for the Subscription using a false or fraudulent means of payment, such as but not limited to using a stolen credit card, and (ii) where the Referred Party signs up for the Subscription but later receives a refund pursuant to GlobalPatron policy. In each of these cases (i) and (ii), you will not receive a Commission at all, or if you have already received a Commission by the time GlobalPatron learns that the party is done one of the things mentioned in (i) or (ii), we will deduct the amount of the Commission we paid you applicable to that payment from any future payments to you as an Affiliate.

(h) Effect of Legal Prohibitions: If we determine that payment of a Commission is not permitted under any applicable laws, or the Referred Party violated any law in signing up for a Subscription, of your violation of these Terms or applicable law resulted in the Referred Party signing up for a Subscription, we reserve the right to not pay the Commission.

(i) Taxes and Third-Party Fees: Affiliates are solely responsible for any and all government- imposed taxes and levies, and any and all fees charged by the Affiliate’s bank or other financial institution, in connection with or because of the Affiliate’s receipt of Commission payments.

5. Licenses

(a) You hereby grant Us a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use your personal and company names, titles, and logos in the advertising, marketing, promoting, and publicizing of the Program.

(b) We both agree not to use the other’s Names or other proprietary materials in any manner that portrays the other in a negative light. Other than the rights explicitly granted to you in these Affiliate Terms, we each retain all right, title, and interest in and to our respective rights, and no right, title, or interest in anything or any form or type of property not stated in these Affiliate Terms is hereby transferred to the other.

7. Limitations of Liability

FURTHER, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THESE AFFILIATE TERMS, IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE AFFILIATE TERMS, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, TORT, OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, EXCEED THE TOTAL COMMISSIONS PAID OR PAYABLE TO YOU UNDER THESE AFFILIATE TERMS.

8. Indemnification

You agree to defend, at your expense, GlobalPatron and its related entities and each of their employees, directors, officers, representatives, agents, and contractors (collectively, the “GlobalPatron Parties”), against any and all claims, suits, actions, or other proceedings brought against them by a third party based on or arising from any claim resulting from your breach of these Affiliate Terms (“Claim”). You further agree to indemnify the GlobalPatron Parties against any damages, attorneys fees, and costs awarded by the court or arbitrator in favor of the party or parties who have brought the Claim. 

9. Term and Termination

The term of the agreement formed by your acceptance of these terms shall continue for as long as you are an Affiliate. Either party hereto may terminate Affiliate’s participation in the Program for any reason, on sixty (60) days written notice. Such notice to GlobalPatron shall be sent by email to [email protected].

10. Modification

From time to time, we may make changes to these Affiliate Terms. You agree to review these terms from time to time and that you will be bound by such changed terms unless you choose to terminate your participation in the Program. Such a termination shall be your sole mode of recourse if you object to such changes. You also agree that GlobalPatron has the right to shut down or otherwise stop offering the Program at any time. If we do shut it down or stop it, we will still pay you all Commissions you have earned prior to that time.
