By participating in the marketing ("Promotion") of any of our products or programs ("Product") conducted by Ral West Livin' the Dream ("Promoter") you ("Affiliate") agree to the following Terms and Conditions ("Agreement'').

 

OVERVIEW

Affiliate earns a 20% commission for every payment a referred lead makes using the affiliate’s unique link for the Overcome Overwhelm: Create a Smooth Running Business with Less Stress online course training program.

 

ELIGIBILITY

Affiliates must be 18 years or older to participate in Promotion. Promoter reserves the unconditional right to accept any Affiliate wishing to engage in the Promotion of the Product. An Affiliate Application Form must be submitted for approval by Promoter prior to engaging in any Promotion. Application form is located at www.ralwest.com/affiliates

​

Affiliate agrees and understands that if its marketing, websites, emails or any other communications associated with or for this Promotion are deemed inappropriate that Affiliate will be deemed, at the sole discretion of the Promoter, ineligible to participate in the Promotions and disqualified from receiving any recognition, commissions, prizes or any other compensation or further communication from the Promoter.

 

Affiliate will be immediately removed from all Promotions and from Promoter's Affiliate Program -- resulting in a forfeiture of all commissions -- and will be in violation of this Agreement IF its marketing for this Promotion or for its own sites:

a) contains, promotes or links to sexually explicit or violent material; 

b) promotes, depicts or links to material that promotes or depicts discrimination based on race, gender, religion, national origin, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, or age;

c) contains unlawful material, including but not limited to materials that may violate another's intellectual property rights, or links to a site that contains such material; 

d) contains information regarding, promotes or links to a site that provides information or promotes illegal activity; or 

e) uses Promoter's videos, images, banners, likeness, or brand name in or on their websites, thus creating market and consumer confusion (which is illegal and generally referred to as copyright or trademark infringement). 

To be clear, you may not use our banners, images or videos, unless specifically supplied to you, as if they are your own on your own sites or any other sites, as it may cause a customer to opt-in thinking they are opting in to Promoter's communications rather than yours. Clearly, the best practice to generate sales is to establish your own brand, identity, and sites, then to authentically recommend our program, not pretend to be Promoter.

(f) uses any "bots" or automated link generating, spamming, or social media spamming techniques to perpetuate their links automatically or anonymously. You should only participate in this Promotion by sending your link directly to your email list, your social media contacts, or through ads you have placed that comply with all the rules on this page.

(g) defames, slanders, or posts rude or inappropriate comments about Promotor or any public figure or member of the expert community. Any rude communication with Promotor's staff also warrants termination of the affiliate agreement and a forfeiture of all commissions.

(h) uses any of our brands in the root of a URL link. This means you cannot use, for example, "ralwest" or “livinthedream” in your website domain before the (dot), like this: www.ralwest.com. However, this would be okay: www.YourSite.com/ralwest. So, to be clear, you cannot have any of Promoter's brand names, or any misspelling or alternative use/spelling of our brand names, before the (dot) in .com, .org, etc. Other examples:

NOT OK: www.ralwestreview.com

OK: www.YourSite.com/ralwestreview

(i) for any other reason that is deemed by us to be unsuitable by the Promoter.

 

Promoter reserves the right to disqualify Affiliates from our Affiliate program, cancel pending commissions based on inappropriate behavior or marketing by the Affiliate, and to amend this Promotion or Agreement at any time without notification to Affiliate.
 

SPAM AND UNSOLICITED EMAIL
Affiliate agrees NOT to send any unsolicited email to any party for the Promotion. Promoter has ZERO tolerance toward any Affiliate who spams any party or individual, period. If Affiliate is caught spamming by "bots" or automated or anonymous social media posting, they will be removed from the Promoter's Affiliate Program, and their commissions or pending commissions will be canceled and/or forfeited. Spam is defined as emailing or posting to anyone who has not requested information via email or any website, and also includes "spamming search engines" or social media with links. Affiliate agrees to abide by all Federal Trade Commission Guidelines and the U.S. Federal Can-SPAM Act.
 

EARNING DISCLAIMER

We've taken every effort to ensure we accurately represent our Promotion and it's potential to help you earn commissions, as described below. However, there is no guarantee that you will get any results or earn any money whatsoever during this Promotion, and we do not purport this as a "get rich scheme." Nothing on our Sites or in this Promotion is a promise or guarantee of earnings. Your level of success in attaining results is dependent upon a number of factors including your skill, knowledge, ability, dedication, business savvy, network, list, and financial situation. Because these factors differ according to individuals, we cannot guarantee your success, income level, or ability to earn revenue. You alone are responsible for your actions and results in life and business. Any forward-looking statements outlined on our sites or in our Promotions are simply our expectations or forecasts for future potential, and thus are not guarantees or promises for actual performance. These statements are simply our opinion. As stipulated by FTC law, we make no guarantees that you will achieve any results from our ideas or Promotion and we offer no professional legal or financial advice.
 

COMMISSIONS

Affiliates will receive the posted dollar amount of commissions for every sale they refer during the Promotion Period only that is directly referred by the Affiliate to the Promoter's Site through the Affiliate's unique link or cookie. This ONLY includes sales that are driven from the Affiliate to the Promoter's sales sites and as tracked through the Affiliate's unique link provided by the Promoter or the cookie resulting from that link. This also ONLY includes sales for the Overcome Overwhelm: Create a Smooth Running Business with Less Stress online course training program and does not include payments for any other program offered by Ral West Livin' the Dream. 

 

Commissions are not paid on, and will not include, a single sale to the Affiliate themselves, meaning Affiliate cannot purchase the Product for their own use through their link and receive a commission on that sale. Affiliate commissions are counted and final numbers are deemed final at the sole discretion and decision of the Promoter.

Commission payments will be sent to Affiliate by the Promoter via Paypal once every 90 days. This allows time for accounting after Promoter's 30-day satisfaction guarantee policies. If a sale is canceled or refunded for any reason, any paid commission will be deducted from the amount owed to the Affiliate and any subsequent payment. Affiliate commissions will not be paid based on any sales or amounts that are attributed to spam, credit card fraud, or returned Product. Promoter reserves the right to change the dates of the commission payout.
 

Affiliates must complete a W-9 and any tax information sent by the Promoter before receiving any commission payments.

 

Commissions are paid ONLY as a percentage of the price of the plan chosen by the subscriber and can include special pricing different than the normal price offered.  The Promoter does not pay commissions on any future products offered to the subscriber/customer.

 

Promoter is NOT responsible for Affiliate using or maintaining their affiliate links and only sales tracked through the Promoter's system will count towards the Affiliates commissions. All sales and commission numbers are tallied by the Promoter and credit due to the Affiliate and all the final sales and commission numbers are at the sole discretion of the Promoter. Promoter makes every reasonable effort to accurately track and pay commissions for all sales that come from Affiliates, but is not responsible nor under any circumstances will be held liable for any technical difficulties, outside events, actions by other affiliates, or other uncontrollable events that may disrupt or interfere with Promoter's ability to do track sales or pay commissions. Under no circumstances will Promoter be held liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages or any loss of revenue or profits that result from Affiliate's participation in this Promotion.

 

Commissions are solely available for this Promotion under this Agreement.
 

LINKS

Promoter will provide Affiliate with Links to this Promotion as well as any related banners, graphics, or text ads necessary to promote and offer the Product to the Affiliate's customers via the Affiliate's Sites or emails. Affiliate may ONLY utilize their unique link provided by the Promoter on the Affiliate's own websites or emails. Affiliate may NOT post their Link on other websites that are not owned or maintained by the Affiliate or the Affiliate's brand, with the exception of ads or to their social media connections. Spamming the internet with automated or anonymous links outside of Affiliate's direct email list, websites or social media pages will be considered a violation of this Agreement and result in a denial of all Affiliate benefits, prizes and commissions. Affiliates may not use unsolicited commercial email, spam, search engine spam, or other illegal or unethical means by which to generate referral commissions. Affiliates may also not purchase the Product through their link for personal use and receive a commission on that sale. Links are intended to drive new customers to the Promotion. All customer information collected during the Promotion shall be owned by the Promoter and it is at the sole discretion of the Promoter whether or not the customer information will be shared with the Affiliate. All information collected before, during and after the Promotion will be managed under the Privacy Policy of the Promoter as listed on its home page.
