Hypnotic I Media Affiliate Program Agreement

This Agreement contains the complete terms and conditions that apply to an individual's or entity's participation in the Hypnotic I Media LLC Affiliate Program ("Program"). As used in this Agreement, "we", "us", or "our" means Hypnotic I Media LLC and "you" means the applicant.

1. Enrollment in the Program

To begin the enrollment process, you will submit a complete Program application via the HypnoticIMedia.com Site. We will evaluate your application in good faith and will notify you of its acceptance or rejection. We may reject your application if we determine in our sole discretion that your site is unsuitable for the Program. Unsuitable sites include, but are not limited to, those that:

By participating in the Program you agree that you will not engage in any such activities. If we reject your application, you are welcome to reapply to the Program at any time. You should also note that if we accept your application and your site is thereafter determined (in our sole discretion) to be unsuitable for the Program, we may terminate this Agreement. Participation in the Program is limited to parties that lawfully can enter into and form contracts under applicable law. For example, minors are not allowed to participate in the Program.

2. Links on Your Site

Once you have been notified that your site has been accepted into the Program, we grant you a revocable, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license for the duration of the term of this Agreement, solely for purposes of facilitating referrals from your site to the HypnoticIMedia.com Site, to provide links to one or more Products on your site. Products eligible for Affiliate Program commissions are listed in the Affiliate Center. Not all products are eligible for commissions.

It is your responsibility to ensure that the links on your web site properly utilize special link formats. You will earn commission fees only with respect to activity on the HypnoticIMedia.com Site occurring directly through these specially formatted links. We will not be liable to you with respect to any failure by you to use the links provided to you, including to the extent that such failure may result in any reduction of amounts that would otherwise be paid to you pursuant to this Agreement.

You acknowledge that, by participating in the Hypnotic I Media LLC Affiliate Program and placing any of the above links within your site, we may receive information from or about visitors to your site or communications between your site and those visitors. Your participation in the Program constitutes your specific and unconditional consent to and authorization for our access to, receipt, storage, use, and disclosure of any and all such information.

Except for the license granted under this Section 2, you do not obtain any rights under this Agreement in any intellectual property, including, without limitation, any intellectual property with respect to the Special Links, link formats, technical specifications, guidelines or graphical artwork referenced above, or with respect to the HypnoticIMedia.com domain name.

You also acknowledge that we may monitor your site for the purpose of ensuring the quality and reliability of Special Links on your site as well for adherence to this agreement. Therefore, you agree that we may take such actions and that you will not seek to block or otherwise interfere with such monitoring. We may use technical means to overcome any methods used on your site to block or interfere with monitoring.

You also acknowledge that as a participant in the Program, we may from time to time send you email updates about the Program. By participating in the Program, you consent to our sending you these email updates.

Further, you acknowledge and agree that you will: (a) use any data, images, text, or other information obtained by you from us or the HypnoticIMedia.com Site in connection with this Agreement ("Content") only in a lawful manner and only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (b) not use any Content relating to any excluded products; (c) not modify or alter any Content that consists of a graphic image, other than to resize it; (d) not edit any Content that consists of text, other than to shorten its length; (e) not sell, redistribute, sublicense or transfer any Content; (f) not use any Content in a manner intended to send sales to any site other than the HypnoticIMedia.com Site; and (g) promptly delete any Content that is no longer displayed on the HypnoticIMedia.com Site or that we notify you is no longer available for your use.

3. Order Processing

We will process Product orders placed by customers who follow Special Links from your site to the HypnoticIMedia.com Site. We reserve the right to reject orders that do not comply with any requirements that we periodically may establish. We will be responsible for all aspects of order processing and fulfillment. Among other things, we will prepare order forms, process payments, cancellations, and returns, and handle customer service. We will track sales made to customers who purchase Products by using Special Links from your site to the HypnoticIMedia.com Site and will make available to you reports summarizing this sales activity. The form, content, and frequency of the reports may vary from time to time in our discretion.

4. Commission Fees

We will pay you commission fees on certain Product sales to third parties only. For a Product sale to be eligible to earn a commission fee, the customer must click-through a Special Link from your site to the HypnoticIMedia.com Site, and add the Product to his/her shopping cart during a session. The session ends upon one of the following events: (a) 24 hours elapses from the customer's initial click-through, (b) the customer orders the Product, or (c) the customer follows a third party's Special Link. We will only pay commission fees on eligible Products after order, payment and shipping have occurred.

To permit accurate tracking, reporting and fee accrual, you must ensure that the Special Links between your site and the HypnoticIMedia.com Site are properly formatted. We will not be liable for paying commission fees on purchases that are not correctly tracked and reported because the links between your site and the HypnoticIMedia.com Site are not properly formatted.

We will not, however, pay commission fees on any Products that are added to a customer's Shopping Cart after the customer has reentered the HypnoticIMedia.com Site from a method other than through a Special Link from your site, as determined by us, even if the customer previously followed a link from your site to the HypnoticIMedia.com Site.

You may not purchase products during sessions initiated through the links on your site for your own use, for resale or commercial use of any kind. This includes orders for customers or on behalf of customers or orders for products to be used by you or your friends, relatives, or associates in any manner. Such purchases may result (in our sole discretion) in the withholding of commission fees and/or the termination of this Agreement. Products that are eligible to earn commission fees under the rules set forth above are referred to as "Qualifying Products."

In addition, you may not: (a) directly or indirectly offer any person or entity any consideration or incentive (including, without limitation, payment of money (including any rebate), or granting of any discount or other benefit) for using HypnoticIMedia.com links on your site to access the HypnoticIMedia.com Site (e.g., by implementing any "rewards" program for persons or entities who use Special Links on your site to access the HypnoticIMedia.com Site); (b) read, intercept, record, redirect, interpret, or fill in the contents of any electronic form or other materials submitted to us by any person or entity; (c) in any way modify, redirect, suppress, or substitute the operation of any button, link, or other interactive feature of the HypnoticIMedia.com Site; (d) make any orders or engage in other transactions of any kind on the HypnoticIMedia.com Site on behalf of any third party, or authorize, assist, or encourage any other person or entity to do so; (e) take any action that could reasonably cause any customer confusion as to our relationship with you, or as to the site on which any functions or transactions (e.g., search, order, browse, and so on) are occurring; (f) other than providing Special Links on your site in accordance with this Agreement, post or serve any advertisements or promotional content promoting the HypnoticIMedia.com Site or otherwise around or in conjunction with the display of the HypnoticIMedia.com Site (e.g., through any "framing" technique or technology or pop-up or pop-under windows), or assist, authorize, or encourage any third party to take any such action; (g) attempt to circumvent the commission fee schedule or artificially increase your commission fees (e.g. by intentionally featuring, purchasing or requesting or encouraging any third party to purchase low-price items offered on the HypnoticIMedia.com Site (as determined by us) for the purpose of exceeding any commission fee threshold or by causing any page of the HypnoticIMedia.com Site to open in a customer's browser other than as a result of the customer clicking on a Special Link on your site); (h) attempt to intercept or re-direct (including, without limitation, via user-installed software) traffic from or on, or divert commission fees from, any web site that participates in the Program; or (i) seek to purchase or register any keywords, search terms or other identifiers that include the words "hypnotic i media," "subliminal manifestation" or variations thereof (for example "hipnotic", "hyppnotic", subbliminal, etc.) ("Proprietary Terms") for use in any search engine, portal, sponsored advertising service or other search or referral service. From time to time, we may request that you cause any applicable Web search provider to exclude Proprietary Terms from keywords used to display your advertising content in association with search results, assuming the provider of such Web search engine offers such exclusion capabilities. If we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have engaged in any of the foregoing activities or, as the case may be, refused promptly to comply with a request from us to exclude Proprietary Terms from any keyword as mentioned above, we may (without limiting any other rights or remedies available to us) withhold any commission fees otherwise payable to you under this Agreement and/or terminate this Agreement.

5. Commission Fee Schedule

During each calendar month, for Qualifying Products sold during sessions initiated through Special Links on your site, you will earn (subject to the other terms of this Agreement) commission fees based on our commission structure.

Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, you will earn the percentage of Qualifying Revenues set forth in the table below. Qualifying products will be set by our own discretion.

The total number of Qualifying Products shipped in a calendar month will be used to determine your "Tier" level in the table above. Once a higher commission fee is achieved within the calendar month, the higher commission fee rate will apply to all Qualifying Revenues earned from Qualifying Product units sold by us during sessions initiated through Special Links on your site during that calendar month, including units sold before the new tier was reached.

6. Commission Fee Payment

We will pay you commission fees on a monthly basis for Qualifying Products shipped in the applicable month. Approximately 60 days following the end of each calendar month, we will send you a check for the commission fees earned. We will accrue and withhold commission fees until the total amount due is at least $100.00. We are obligated by U.S. federal law to obtain tax information from Program participants who are U.S. citizens, U.S. residents or U.S. corporations and from Program participants who are not U.S. citizens or residents but whose businesses are taxable in the U.S. If we believe you are a Program participant 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 commission 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.

7. Policies and Pricing

Customers who buy products through this Program will be deemed to be our customers. Accordingly, all of our rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales will apply to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. For example, we will determine the prices to be charged for products sold under this Program in accordance with our own pricing policies. You may not otherwise include price information in your Product descriptions. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to present accurate information, but we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular product.

8. Identifying Yourself as an Associate

You may not issue any press release with respect to this Agreement or your participation in the Program; such action may result in your termination from the Program. We will make available to you a small graphic image that identifies your site as a Program participant. You must display this logo or the phrase "In association with Hypnotic I Media" somewhere on your site. We may modify the text or graphic image of this notice from time to time. In addition, you may not in any manner misrepresent or embellish the relationship between us and you, or express or imply any relationship or affiliation between us and you or any other person or entity except as expressly permitted by this Agreement (including by expressing or implying that we support, sponsor, endorse, or contribute money to any charity or other cause).

9. Limited License

We grant you a nonexclusive, revocable right to use the graphic image and text described in Section 8 and such other text or images for which we grant express permission, solely for the purpose of identifying your site as a Program participant and to assist in generating Product sales. You may not use such image or text in an offline promotion or other offline manner (e.g., in any printed material, mailing or other document). You may not modify the graphic image or text, or any other of our images, in any way. We reserve all of our rights in the graphic image and text, any other images, our trade names and trademarks, and all other intellectual property rights. You agree to follow our Trademark Guidelines, as those guidelines may change from time to time. We may revoke your license at any time by giving you written notice.

10. Responsibility for 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. For example, you will be solely responsible for:

We disclaim all liability for these matters. Further, you will indemnify and hold us harmless from all claims, damages, and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) relating to the development, operation, maintenance, and contents of your site.

11. Compliance with Laws

As a condition to your participation in the Program, you agree that while you are a Program participant you will 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 a Program participant. Without limiting the foregoing obligation, you agree that as a condition of your participation in the Program you will comply with all applicable laws (federal, state or otherwise) that govern marketing email, including without limitation, the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 and all other anti-spam laws.

12. Term of the Agreement

The term of this Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your Program application and will end when terminated by either party. Either you or we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice of termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, you will immediately cease use of, and remove from your site, all links to the HypnoticIMedia.com Site, and all of our trademarks, trade dress, and logos, and all other materials provided by or on behalf of us to you pursuant hereto or in connection with the Program. You are eligible to earn commission fees only on sales of Qualifying Products that occur during the term, and commission fees earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the related orders are not canceled or returned. We may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount is paid.

13. Modification

We may modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, at any time and in our sole discretion, by posting a change notice or a new agreement on the HypnoticIMedia.com Site. Modifications may include, for example, changes in the scope of available commission fees, commission fee schedules, payment procedures, and Program rules. IF ANY MODIFICATION IS UNACCEPTABLE TO YOU, YOUR ONLY RECOURSE IS TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT. YOUR CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM FOLLOWING OUR POSTING OF A CHANGE NOTICE OR NEW AGREEMENT ON THE HypnoticIMedia.com SITE WILL CONSTITUTE BINDING ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGE.

14. Relationship of Parties

You and we are independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement will create any partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, sales representative, or employment relationship between the parties. You will have no authority to make or accept any offers or representations on our behalf. You will not make any statement, whether on your site or otherwise, that reasonably would contradict anything in this Section.

15. Limitation of Liability

We will not be liable for indirect, special, or consequential damages (or any loss of revenue, profits, or data) arising in connection with this Agreement or the Program, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Further, our aggregate liability arising with respect to this Agreement and the Program will not exceed the total commission fees paid or payable to you under this Agreement.

16. Disclaimers

We make no express or implied warranties or representations with respect to the Program or any products sold through the Program (including, without limitation, warranties of fitness, merchantability, noninfringement, or any implied warranties arising out of a course of performance, dealing, or trade usage). In addition, we make no representation that the operation of the HypnoticIMedia.com Site will be uninterrupted or error-free, and we will not be liable for the consequences of any interruptions or errors.

17. Independent Investigation

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE TO ALL ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WE MAY AT ANY TIME (DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY) SOLICIT CUSTOMER REFERRALS ON TERMS THAT MAY DIFFER FROM THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR OPERATE WEB SITES THAT ARE SIMILAR TO OR COMPETE WITH YOUR WEB SITE. YOU HAVE INDEPENDENTLY EVALUATED THE DESIRABILITY OF PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM AND ARE NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION, GUARANTEE, OR STATEMENT OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.

18. Arbitration

Any dispute relating in any way to this Agreement (including any actual or alleged breach hereof), any transactions or activities under this Agreement or your relationship with us or any of our affiliates shall be submitted to confidential arbitration in Las Vegas, Nevada, except that, to the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate our intellectual property rights, we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the state of Nevada (and you consent to non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts) or any other court of competent jurisdiction. Arbitration under this agreement shall be conducted under the rules then prevailing of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator's award shall be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. 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.

19. Miscellaneous

This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the United States and the state of Nevada, without reference to rules governing choice of laws. You may not assign this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. 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.
