You agree as follows:

 

8.1      For each month or portion thereof in which you participate in the Program, SourceKnowledge will make a payment to you based upon the Net Revenue received by SourceKnowledge from valid users’ clicks on links containing the SourceKnowledge Shopping Ads on your Site in such period, as determined by SourceKnowledge’s standard tracking method (“Payment“). Notwithstanding the foregoing, you understand and agree that your ability to earn Payments under this Program are expressly conditioned upon your satisfaction and continued compliance with the Eligibility Requirements set forth above, including providing and maintaining accurate payment information. If at any time during the Term (as defined in Section 16 below), you fail to satisfy the Eligibility Requirements, any amounts otherwise payable to you during the period of such failure will be deemed unearned and will not accrue to your Account due to your ineligibility for participation in this Program.  We will grant you access to an online reporting tool to view traffic activity and estimated Payments generated by SourceKnowledge Shopping Ads from your Site during the Term. You understand and agree that SourceKnowledge shall have the right in its sole discretion to credit, adjust or discount charges to Merchants based on its determination of quality of traffic or source (e.g., non-US) generated via the SourceKnowledge Shopping Ads and to offset future Payments to you based on such credits or adjustments to Merchants for traffic generated by your Site. You further agree that SourceKnowledge shall have no obligation to issue any Payment(s) to you if SourceKnowledge has not received remittance from the relevant Merchant(s) of all monies due to SourceKnowledge. In the event of such non-payments or bad debts, SourceKnowledge reserves the right to offset future Payments to you or invoice you for such amount owed in its sole discretion. Your recourse for any such adjustment due to non-payment shall be to make a claim against the relevant Merchant(s), and SourceKnowledge disclaims any and all liability for such Payments.

 

8.2      Subject to these Terms, including, without limitation, your satisfaction of and continued compliance with all Eligibility Requirements, SourceKnowledge will issue the Payment for the previous month’s activity thirty (30) days after the last day of that month, subject to a minimum Payment of fifty dollars ($50.00), or such other minimum payment as SourceKnowledge may establish (“Minimum Payment”). Account balances of less than the minimum Payment will remain in your Account until a balance of the minimum Payment is met. SourceKnowledge will make one or more methods, by which to receive Payments, available to you, in our sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any Payment(s) that is less than a certain monetary threshold as determined by SourceKnowledge, in its sole discretion, SourceKnowledge reserves the right (but has no obligation) to issue such Payment(s) to you via PayPal to the email address on file or by cheque in your Account.  All Payments under these Terms will be made in U.S. Dollars. We reserve the right to assess a charge on your Account of ten dollars ($10.00) for each attempted issuance of a Payment to you which is returned or undeliverable.

 

8.3      We reserve the right to suspend, withhold or adjust any Payment to you in the event of any suspected or actual violation of these Terms or part thereof, or other policy or guideline established by SourceKnowledge in connection with the Program (including, but not limited to reviews of merchant credit requests), and in particular we reserve the right to suspend, withhold or adjust any Payment based on any amounts which result from clicks generated by any person, robot, automated program or similar device in violation of the Terms, as reasonably determined by SourceKnowledge, including without limitation any valid clicks co-mingled with invalid clicks. You agree to forfeit and/or have offset any payments made which are determined by SourceKnowledge (in our sole absolute discretion) to have been generated by you or from your Site in violation of these Terms or other policy or guideline established by SourceKnowledge in connection with the Program.

 

8.4      You agree to pay all applicable taxes, including any applicable value added tax (VAT) or other similar taxes, imposed by any government entity in connection with your participation in the Program. You are solely responsible for providing and maintaining accurate contact and payment information in connection with your participation in the Program. U.S. taxpayers must provide, among other information, a valid U.S. tax identification number and a fully-completed Form W-9. Non-U.S. taxpayers must provide either a fully-completed Form W-8 or other form, which may require a valid U.S. tax identification number, and signed certification that the taxpayer does not have U.S. activities as required by the U.S. tax authorities.

 

8.5      Any questions or claims by you regarding any charges or payments must be raised with us in writing within sixty (60) days after the date such charges are accrued or payments issued, or else the charges or payments will be deemed final and will not be subject to any further claims or disputes. No refunds, credits or other billing adjustments will be made if a question or dispute is not asserted by you in writing within sixty (60) days of the date on which the applicable charges are accrued or payments issued. Payment shall be calculated solely based on records maintained by SourceKnowledge.
