Terms and Conditions

As an authorized affiliate (Affiliate) of MODELPALOOZA, you agree to abide by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement (Agreement). Please read the entire Agreement carefully before registering and promoting MODELPALOOZA as an Affiliate.

Your participation in the Program is solely to legally advertise our website to receive a commission on memberships and products purchased by individuals referred to MODELPALOOZA by your own website or personal referrals.

Commissions will be paid once a month. For an Affiliate to receive a commission, the referred account must remain active for a minimum of 30 days.

You cannot refer yourself, and you will not receive a commission on your own accounts. There is also a limit of one commission per referral. If someone clicks the link on your site and orders multiple accounts, then you will receive a commission on the first order only.

Payments will only be sent for transactions that have been successfully completed. Transactions that result in chargebacks or refunds will not be paid out.

You may use the graphics and text provided by us, or you may create your own as long as they are deemed appropriate according to the conditions and not in violation as outlined in Condition 3.

5. Coupon and Deal Sites

MODELPALOOZA occasionally offers coupon to select affiliates and to our newsletter subscribers. If you’re not pre-approved / assigned a branded coupon, then you’re not allowed to promote the coupon. Below are the terms that apply for any affiliate who is considering the promotion of our products in relation to a deal or coupon:

– Affiliates may not use misleading text on affiliate links, buttons or images to imply that anything besides currently authorized deals to the specific affiliate.

– Affiliates may not bid on MODELPALOOZA Coupons, MODELPALOOZA Discounts or other phrases implying coupons are available.

– Affiliates may not generate pop-ups, pop-unders, iframes, frames, or any other seen or unseen actions that set affiliate cookies unless the user has expressed a clear and explicit interest in activating a specific savings by clicking on a clearly marked link, button or image for that particular coupon or deal. Your link must send the visitor to the merchant site.

– User must be able to see coupon/deal/savings information and details before an affiliate cookie is set (i.e. “click here to see coupons and open a window to merchant site” is NOT allowed).

– Affiliate sites may not have “Click for (or to see) Deal/Coupon” or any variation, when there are no coupons or deals available, and the click opens the merchant site or sets a cookie. Affiliates with such text on the merchant landing page will be removed from the program immediately.

6. Pay Per Click (PPC) Policy

PPC bidding is NOT allowed without prior written permission.

7. Liability

MODELPALOOZA will not be liable for indirect or accidental damages (loss of revenue, commissions) due to affiliate tracking failures, loss of database files, or any results of intents of harm to the Program and/or to our website(s).

The terms and conditions of this agreement may be modified by us at any time.

MODELPALOOZA Affiliate Program Policies Allowed and super cool promotional methods How you promote MODELPALOOZA is reflected in the commission you earn! We encourage the use of promotional methods that add value to MODELPALOOZA and bring us legitimate, loyal customers. We love it when our team of affiliates blog about affiliate marketing and mention MODELPALOOZA. Here are a few examples of awesome promotional methods to earn more commission: Tell clients, customers or friends about MODELPALOOZA, and give them your affiliate referral link Write a review or a blog post about affiliate marketing or MODELPALOOZA and link to our site with your referral link Reach out to a broad audience with your social network accounts. Tweet about us on Twitter with your affiliate referral link, post about us on Facebook with your affiliate link, or communicate to your Linkedin followers about affiliate marketing with your affiliate link. Spam-free promotion is a great way to get more referrals! Provide value to others by answering related questions on other sites with helpful responses, and using your referral link in your replies. Prohibited and super uncool promotional methods We love and back our product 100%, and we are very careful with how it’s promoted, so we want affiliates who are 100% behind us too! The prohibited promotional methods listed below aren’t meant to scare you off – they’re here to protect you, and us, and our customers from any freaky or fraudulent activity, which is something we take pretty seriously. We know you’ll understand. But here they are in writing just in case you’re not totally sure what is and what isn’t allowed. MODELPALOOZA may not be promoted on coupon sites Customers who are searching for a coupon are already in the market for MODELPALOOZA so this method adds no value to MODELPALOOZA. Paid advertising using your affiliate link is prohibited Buying ads through services like Google AdWords, social ads, or retargeting ads and using our brand keywords and your affiliate link will result in affiliate account deactivation. Any type of spam is prohibited Links, ads, emails, comments… any type of spam. Please respect the posting rules of any 3rd-party websites you use to promote MODELPALOOZA P.S. This is not an exhaustive list of spam methods; if we decide that your activity is spam, it’s spam. Any illegal activity or activity deemed offensive by us is prohibited This may result in referrals being rejected and/or your affiliate account being deactivated. See above for allowed and super cool promotional methods! We’re flattered, but please don’t pretend to be professionally associated with MODELPALOOZA Affiliates aren’t employees of MODELPALOOZA or The SOCIETY or PLATOON and have no employee rights. Pretending to actually be MODELPALOOZA is prohibited Cloning our site, copying our site, using our copyrighted site assets, and pretending that a site created by you is an official MODELPALOOZA site is unethical and prohibited (this includes using services that automatically clone websites, or place them into iframes). Again, false promotion to customers that you are endorsed or operated by MODELPALOOZA is prohibited (and super uncool). If you’re unsure or concerned that some activity you’re about to proceed with may be considered prohibited, please ask us. Consequences of not-cool promotional methods If your promotional methods step outside of these terms, your referrals may be rejected and we may disable your affiliate account. We reserve the right to do this and may or may not notify you in the instance that this occurs. Please use allowed promotional methods, and help us to help you succeed as an affiliate! Inappropriate websites The following types of sites are not permitted to become an affiliate: adult sites, sites that display adult material or banners, sites that promote violence, hatred or bigotry, sites that promote or engage in illegal activity, including (but not limited to), hacking, cracking, nulled, and warez sites. Affiliate applications for inappropriate websites will be rejected, and we reserve the right to choose whether or not to provide a rejection reason. The important stuff By accepting these terms and conditions you are providing your nonlegal agreement to abide by them. By registering and being approved as an affiliate in our affiliate program you agree that your commissions are subject to approval before they are accepted and subsequently paid. The affiliate relationship does not represent a professional or formal agreement, and as an affiliate you are not an employee of MODELPALOOZA or The SOCIETY or PLATOON. You agree that this is not a legally binding relationship and as a result may not take legal action against MODELPALOOZA and The SOCIETY and PLATOON. These affiliate terms and conditions are subject to change without notice. Phew! Sound good? Great! Thanks for taking the time to read through these T’s and C’s and for agreeing to them. We can’t wait to have you on board!
