3. SELLERLEGEND LIMITED’S RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS

3.1. We have the right to monitor your site at any time to determine if you are following the terms and conditions of this Agreement. We may notify you of any changes to your site that we feel should be made, or to make sure that your links to our web site are appropriate and to notify further you of any changes that we feel should be made. If you do not make the changes to your site that we feel are necessary, we reserve the right to terminate your participation in the SellerLegend Limited Affiliate Program.

3.2. SellerLegend Limited reserves the right to terminate this Agreement and your participation in the SellerLegend Limited Affiliate Program immediately and for any reason, at our sole discretion. Termination of the agreement need not be related to your behavior or practices. In case of such termination, we will only accept liability for the affiliate commissions due to you before the termination date. No compensation will be provided for loss of future income due to the program’s termination.

Should you fraudulently abuse this affiliate program in any way, SellerLegend Limited shall not be liable to you for any commissions for such fraudulent sales. Fraudulent abuse of the system will result in the immediate revocation of your membership in the program.

3.3. This Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your Affiliate application, and will continue unless terminated hereunder.

4. TERMINATION

Either you or we may end this Agreement AT ANY TIME, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice. Written notice can be in the form of mail, email, or blog post. In addition, this Agreement will terminate immediately upon any breach of this Agreement by you.

5. MODIFICATION

We may modify any of the terms and conditions in this Agreement at any time at our sole discretion. In such an event, you will be notified by email. Modifications may include but are not limited to, changes in the payment procedures and SellerLegend Limited’s Affiliate Program rules. If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only option is to end this Agreement. Your continued participation in SellerLegendLimited’s Affiliate Program following the posting of the change notice or new Agreement on our site will indicate your agreement to the changes.

6. COMMISSION PAYMENTS

SellerLegend Limited uses a homegrown system to handle all of the tracking and payment. We reserve the right to change the functionality and the affiliate commission rules at our sole discretion. Affiliate commission payment will be either by PayPal and/or, if you have a paying SellerLegend account, by a reduction of your monthly subscription equivalent to the commission due to you.

The payment rules are as follows:

1. Commissions are paid for new joiners only. If a referral of yours has already used SellerLegend ever before, no commission is payable.
2. Commissions will only be paid on the base subscription amount excluding taxes. Overages relating to an excess number of orders do not accrue commissions.
   So, at the time of this writing of these affiliate terms and conditions, commissions are calculated as a percentage of one of the following base subscription amounts: $49.99, $59.99, $69.99, and 99.99.
   For example, an Enterprise subscriber charged $99.99 with 60,000 orders a month would pay a $99.99 base subscription, plus $0.002 per additional order above 50,000
3. The standard affiliate commission percentage is 15% of the base subscription.
   The percentage can be split between you and your referral. You determine the extent of the split, which can range between 0% (all the commission accrues to you) and 100% (all the commission goes to your referral). Any percentage between those extremes is acceptable.
   For example, if you elect to share one-quarter of your commission with your referral, you need to specify 25% in the coupon set up.
4. Commissions are confirmed 30 days after the end of the user trial. Commissions are payable at the end of the month of confirmation.
   For example, a user that joins on the 5th of June through one of your links will end his trial 21 days later, on the 26th of June.
   The commission is confirmed 30 days later, on the 26th of July, and payable at month-end on the 31st of July.
   The 30-day delay is due to our 30-day refund policy, which says that you can request a refund up to 30 days after the subscription charge is incurred. If a refund is requested by the referral, then the commission is no longer payable.
   This does NOT mean you lose the first month’s commission. It just gets deferred by 30 days. If a referral pays us 10 months of subscription, you will get 10 months of commission. The last commission will be 30 days after the end of the subscription.
5. An affiliate can only get 1 year of commissions from a single subscriber.

7. ACCESS TO AFFILIATE ACCOUNT INTERFACE

You will create a password so that you may enter the SellerLegend Limited secure affiliate account interface. From this site, you will be able to receive the reports that will describe our calculation of the commissions due to you.

8. PROMOTION RESTRICTIONS

8.1. You are free to promote your own websites, but naturally, any promotion that mentions SellerLegend Limited could be perceived by the public or the press as a joint effort. You should know that certain forms of advertising are always prohibited by SellerLegend Limited.

For example, advertising commonly referred to as “spamming” is unacceptable to us and could cause damage to our name.

Other generally prohibited forms of advertising include the use of unsolicited commercial email (UCE), postings to non-commercial newsgroups, and cross-posting to multiple newsgroups at once.

In addition, you may not advertise in any way that effectively conceals or misrepresents your identity, your domain name, or your return email address.

You may use mailings to customers to promote SellerLegend Limited so long as the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of your services or web site, and recipients have the option to remove themselves from future mailings.

Also, you may post to newsgroups to promote SellerLegend Limited so long as the newsgroup specifically welcomes commercial messages.

At all times, you must clearly represent yourself and your web sites as independent from SellerLegend Limited. If it comes to our attention that you are spamming, we will consider that cause for immediate termination of this Agreement and your participation in the SellerLegend Limited Affiliate Program. Any pending balances owed to you will not be paid if your account is terminated due to such unacceptable advertising or solicitation.

8.2. Affiliates that among other keywords or exclusively bid in their Pay-Per-Click campaigns on keywords such as SellerLegend Limited, SellerLegend, www.SellerLegend.com, and/or any misspellings or similar alterations of these – be it separately or in combination with other keywords – and do not direct the traffic from such campaigns to their own website prior to re-directing it to ours, will be considered trademark violators and will be banned from our Affiliate Program. We will do everything possible to contact the affiliate prior to the ban. However, we reserve the right to expel any trademark violator from our affiliate program without prior notice, and on the first occurrence of such PPC bidding behavior.

8.3. Affiliates are not prohibited from keying in prospect’s information into the lead form as long as the prospects’ information is real and true, and these are valid leads (i.e. sincerely interested in SellerLegend’s service).

8.4. Affiliate shall not transmit any so-called “interstitials,” “Parasiteware™,” “Parasitic Marketing,” “Shopping Assistance Application,” “Toolbar Installations and/or Add-ons,” “Shopping Wallets” or “deceptive pop-ups and/or pop-unders” to consumers from the time the consumer clicks on a qualifying link until such time as the consumer has fully exited SellerLegend’s site (i.e., no page from our site or any SellerLegend.com’s content or branding is visible on the end-user’s screen).

As used herein a. “Parasiteware™” and “Parasitic Marketing” shall mean an application that

1. Through accidental or direct intent, causes the overwriting of affiliate and non-affiliate commission tracking cookies through any other means than a customer initiated click on a qualifying link on a web page or email;
2. Intercepts searches to redirect traffic through an installed software, thereby causing, pop-ups, commission tracking cookies to be put in place, or other commission tracking cookies to be overwritten where a user would under normal circumstances have arrived at the same destination through the results given by the search (search engines being, but not limited to, Google, MSN, Yahoo, and similar search or directory engines);
3. Sets commission tracking cookies through loading of Merchant site in IFrames, hidden links, and automatic pop-ups that open SellerLegend.com’s site;
4. Targets text on web sites, other than those web sites 100% owned by the application owner, for the purpose of contextual marketing;
5. Removes, replaces, or blocks the visibility of Affiliate banners with any other banners, other than those that are on web sites 100% owned by the owner of the application.

9. GRANT OF LICENSES

9.1. We grant to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to

1. Access our site through HTML links solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and
