Affiliate Program Terms & Conditions
By filling out the signup form, you acknowledge that you have read the terms and conditions, understand, and agree with them.

Joining the Program
By filling out the signup form, you will become an affiliate and are bound by the terms of this agreement. Your participation in the program is solely for this purpose: to legally advertise our website to receive a commission on products purchased by your referred individuals. 

Affiliate Responsibilities
It is understood that you will introduce alphaShipper software and services to prospective customers and will comply with all laws as well those that govern email marketing and anti-spam laws. Shadow Bay Software reserves the right to accept or reject any prospective customers.

Affiliate Commission
When a referred user installs alphaShipper, you are credited with referring the user.  If the user ever makes a one-time purchase, you will receive 20% of the purchase cost. Any payment after the initial one-time purchase does not result in a commission being paid. Commissions are paid monthly through PayPal.  A PayPal account is required to receive payouts.  Affiliates may not refer themselves and will not be awarded commission for self-referrals.  Attempting to refer yourself is grounds for termination from the alphaShipper affiliate program and a permanent ban from using the alphaShipper software.  

Either you or Shadow Bay Software may terminate the Affiliate relationship at any time. You are only eligible to earn Affiliate payments during your time as an approved Affiliate provided that you have not violated any terms of this agreement. Shadow Bay Software may change the program or service policies and operating procedures at any time.

Affiliate Relationship
This Affiliate relationship is one of independent contractors. Shadow Bay Software will not be liable for indirect, special or consequential damages arising in connection with this program and our aggregate liability arising with respect to this program will not exceed the total referral fees paid or payable to you. Shadow Bay Software makes no express or implied warranties or representations with respect to the program. In addition, Shadow Bay Software makes no representation that the operation of the service will be uninterrupted or error-free, and Shadow Bay Software will not be liable for the consequences of any interruptions or errors.

Revocation of Affiliate Status
Your affiliate application and status in the program may be suspended or terminated for any of the following reasons: 

Inappropriate advertisements (false claims, misleading hyperlinks) 
Illegal spamming (mass email, mass newsgroup posting, etc.)
Advertising on sites containing/promoting illegal activities
Violation of intellectual property rights
Referring or attempting to refer yourself

Affiliate Links
You may use graphic and text links both on your website and in emails. The site may also be advertised "offline" in classified ads, magazines, and newspapers. You may use the graphics and text provided to you by us, or you may create your own as long as they are deemed appropriate according to the conditions above.

Affiliate Tracking
When a web surfer clicks through your affiliate link, a cookie is set in their browser that contains your affiliate username. Also, their IP address is tracked in the database along with your affiliate name. When this person decides to buy a product, the script will look for this cookie and/or try to match their IP address to identify the affiliate who will be awarded the commission. Visitors sent through your affiliate link may download the software and start a trial subscription.  At this point, you are credited with referring the new subscriber.  If at any time, they upgrade to a paid subscription, the commission will still be awarded provided that they stay subscribed for a period of 2 months.

Terms of the agreement
These terms will begin upon your signup with the affiliate program and will end when your affiliate account is terminated. The terms of this agreement may be modified by Shadow Bay Software at any time. If any modification to the terms is unacceptable to you, your only choice is to terminate your affiliate account. Your continuing participation in the program will constitute your acceptance of any change. 

Liability
We will not be liable for indirect or accidental damages (loss of revenue, commissions) due to affiliate tracking failures, loss of database files, and any results of "intents of harm" to the program or our website. We do not make any expressed or implied warranties with respect to the affiliate program and/or products sold at this site. We make no claim that the operation of the affiliate program and our website will be error-free and we will not be liable for any interruptions or errors.
