Its decision shall be final and binding. We may change the length of our cookie period from time to time.

No commissions will be paid to you until you have accrued affiliate payments of at least $25.00. Any money held in your account will not collect interest.

If a product that generated commissions is returned by the customer, we will deduct the corresponding commission from your next commission payment. If there is no subsequent affiliate payment to you, we will send you a bill for the commission. Affiliate accounts that are “abandoned” will be removed from the Program if their balance is less than $25. An abandoned account is any account that has not been logged into for a period of one (1) year without any transactions having been posted to that account.
