8. Unique links; Referrals; Reporting

In accordance with this Agreement, you can earn Commissions when other users of the Website download files that you upload to the Website with your Affiliate Program Account. Upon joining the Affiliate Program your Account will be designated as an Affiliate Program Account and you must use this Account to upload files for us to be able to credit a download and any Commissions to your Account. We are under no obligation to credit you for downloads that occur for files not uploaded to your Account. The Website will use commercially accepted methods and practices to track downloads of the files you upload with your Account. These methods will be designed to determine whether a download in a Commission occurs. In order for a download to be credited to you, a user must actually download a file that you uploaded with your Account. In addition to other restrictions indicated on the Program Portal, each download must be unique - i.e., we will not credit you for multiple downloads by the same user. We will also not credit you for any download if we are unable to determine that a user actually downloaded your file. This includes situations such as when a user obfuscates their information by IP spoofing or using a proxy, or when a user's browser setting prohibits our tracking. You will also not be credit Commissions for files which are in violation of this Agreement or our general Terms of Use. We will take commercially reasonable steps to provide you with online access to reports that track and review referrals credited to your Account. Such reports will be available on the Program Portal. Such reports will be updated on a regular basis but updates will not be “real-time” and are subject to final recalculations, which may take into account non-completed transactions, adjustments for fraud and other potential changes. The form, content and frequency of updates of such reports are subject to change at our discretion. Your Commissions will be calculated in accordance with the rules listed through the Program Portal, including any “Rates” and “FAQ” sections made available on the Website from time to time (the “Program Rules”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference, and which may be amended in our sole discretion, and your Account. If the Program Rules conflict with this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall be binding. The amount of your Commission pursuant to the Program Rules will be determined by the number of “pay per downloads” associated with your Account through your use of your Unique Links, and other relevant factors. We reserve the right to amend the Program Rules at any time by posting such amendments. No other notification will be made to you about any amendments. You acknowledge that your continued participation in the Affiliate Program following such amendments will constitute your acceptance of such amendments, regardless of whether you have actually read them.

9. Payment of Commissions

Commissions for credits earned and owing to your Account will be calculated and totaled on a monthly basis. Commissions for each month will be paid out within approximately 14 days following the ending of that period, except as otherwise limited by this Agreement. All Commissions are paid in U.S. Dollars. If the total Commission from all your referrals in a payment period is less than the minimum amount established by us, or selected by you should we in our discretion allow you to select (the “Payment Floor”), we may hold such total Commission until the payment period after the total amount accrued is at least equal to the Payment Floor. The Payment Floor is subject to change at any time and from time to time in our sole discretion. If you have not earned or accrued referral fees in at least the amount of the Payment Floor in six (6) months prior to any given payment period, or if your Account is suspended or terminated, we may, in our sole discretion, without any notice to you and without waiver by us, charge you a maintenance fee in an amount up to the Payment Floor per six (6) month period. This maintenance fee may be deducted and offset against any unpaid Commissions. We may charge service fees on certain payment methods, including wire payments. We may put a payment hold on any part or all of your Commission for any reason, including if we have a reasonable suspicion or belief that referrals credited to your account are fraudulent. We may also deduct from your Account Commissions earned through fraudulent means. You may dispute a payment hold or deduction by notifying us, though we hold the ultimate discretion on determining the fraudulent nature of any Commissions. If a Commission is paid or owed and a subsequent deduction occurs, we may set-off the amount of the deduction and any related fees from any subsequent payments owing to you. If there is no subsequent payment owed, we will send you an invoice for the set-off amount, and you shall pay such invoice no later than thirty (30) days following receipt.

10. Taxes

Upon enrollment and completion of your Account, you may be required to complete certain tax documents. We may withhold all Commissions owing to you until such time as you submit these documents. Between the time you create your Account and the time you submit the documents, you may still be provided with a Unique Link and may begin accruing Commissions. However, if you fail to return the documents within sixty (60) days of enrollment in the Affiliate Program, we may suspend your Account until such time as you submit the documents; alternatively, we may terminate your participation in the Affiliate Program and any Commissions you have accrued will be forfeited. We may choose to deduct taxes, including social security, unemployment, and workers’ compensation insurance premiums, from you in accordance with applicable law. In any case, you are ultimately solely responsible for all taxes on Commissions and other amounts paid to you by us.
