Rules of Participation in Affiliate Program

In order to participate in the Affiliate Program, you must be 18 years or older, and you must adhere to all applicable rules and regulations (including, without limitation, FTC guidelines) when promoting our products and services, at all times. Additionally, you must follow these rules when approved for this Affiliate Program, at all times, and the failure to do so may result in you being terminated from the Affiliate Program and the forfeiture of any outstanding Commissions. In the event that any communication you transmit in the course of a Promotion is deemed inappropriate by FOCUSED SketchUp, which shall be determined in FOCUSED SketchUp’s sole discretion, FOCUSED SketchUp reserves the right to suspend, block, or otherwise terminate your access to participating in the FOCUSED SketchUp Affiliate Program.

communications which contain sexually explicit or violent material, or which encourage violent or abusive conduct;

communications that contain defamatory conduct, or which violate a third party’s intellectual property rights or otherwise damage FOCUSED SketchUp or any other third party;

communications which constitute unsolicited contact with prospective customers (including, without limitation, any communication that violates the Do-Not-Call Implementation Act of 2003 or the Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing (“CANSPAM”) Act of 2003; or

communications that are unlawful or which encourage unlawful conduct.

Affiliate Referrals

In the event that you refer an individual (a “Potential Purchaser”) to FOCUSED SketchUp, and the Potential Purchaser ultimately makes an Eligible Purchase (as defined below) from FOCUSED SketchUp (making them a “Customer”), you will receive an affiliate referral as detailed below, exclusive of taxes and fees (the “Commission”).

For the purposes of this Agreement, an “Eligible Purchase” shall include any direct purchase made on FOCUSED SketchUp, by a customer who has accessed the FOCUSED SketchUp platform through clicking on a unique link provided to you, by FOCUSED SketchUp (as defined below).

Any revenue generated by FOCUSED SketchUp from an Eligible Purchase which has originated from a referral you have directed to FOCUSED SketchUp, shall result in the payment of a Commission to you in an amount equal to 30% of the revenue generated, for so long as the referred customer remains active without interruption.

You will only receive a Commission for Potential Purchasers whose Eligible Purchase is made using the unique link provided to you by FOCUSED SketchUp (the “Unique Link”).

The Commissions will be paid on a rolling basis each month for the revenue generated which has resulted from Eligible Purchases which took place during the previous calendar month. Within the first five days of each month, you will receive a PayPal transfer for the Commission earned, less any taxes which FOCUSED SketchUp may be required by law to withhold from the final payment to you (if applicable). In the event that a referred customer receives a refund or disputes a charge which generated a Commission, you will see a deduction for the such corresponding Commission from any payment received the following month; in the event that there is no subsequent payment due to you for that following month, you will receive an invoice for said Commission which shall be payable within sixty (60) days of your receipt of the invoice. Any and all determinations of what constitutes an Eligible Purchase and whether or not a Commission is payable, shall be made by FOCUSED SketchUp, and will be final and binding.

Any Commissions which shall become due by FOCUSED SketchUp will be made through PayPal and/or in US Dollars. As such, it is your sole responsibility to ensure proper setup and sufficient access to a PayPal account in order to receive any Commissions which may become due and owing to you. You hereby acknowledge and agree that you will comply with any and all applicable laws and regulations with respect to your use of your PayPal account in order to receive said Commissions, and you hereby agree that you shall refrain from participating in the FOCUSED SketchUp Affiliate Program in the event that you are located in a country or jurisdiction where such use of the PayPal app is banned or otherwise prohibited. You acknowledge and agree that FOCUSED SketchUp will require certain information (such as, for example, your bank account number or PayPal ID) in order to process your Commission payment. You further acknowledge and agree that FOCUSED SketchUp may require you to complete a Form W-9 and provide additional tax information before processing a Commission payment. You hereby consent and agree to comply with any and all applicable tax laws governing any payments contemplated hereunder, and you hereby acknowledge, understand, and agree that it is your sole responsibility to file and pay any taxes or fees which may come due and owing as a result of receipt of such Commissions from FOCUSED SketchUp.

You shall only be eligible to earn Commissions resulting from Eligible Purchases occurring during the term, and any Commissions earned after the date of the termination of this Agreement, will remain payable to you only in the event that such Eligible Purchases are not cancelled, charged back, or otherwise returned by the referred customer. In the event that any overpayment in Commissions is made by us, you hereby agree to promptly remit such excess payment upon notification by us. We may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount is paid.

We reserve the right to postpone the date of a payout for an individual affiliate, to the next scheduled payout, if the affiliate doesn’t have future commissions that provide enough balance to cover adjustments to commissions due to unforeseen circumstances (ex. an extraordinary refund).

You shall not be entitled to a Commission for any purchase that you make yourself, and FOCUSED SketchUp reserves the right to review any fraudulent transactions and revise the final payouts to you as deemed appropriate.
