If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only option is to end this Agreement. Your continued participation in IFTTT’s Affiliate Program following the posting of the change notice or new Agreement on our Services will indicate your agreement to the changes.

6. Commissions and Payment

6.1. Every customer who purchases a subscription with IFTTT through this Program is deemed to be a customer of IFTTT. Accordingly, all of our rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning pricing, customer orders, customer service, and services sales will apply to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. IFTTT is not responsible for any representations made by the Affiliate that contradict our rules, policies or operating procedures.

6.2. For the sale of a subscription to be eligible to earn a commission by you, the customer must click-through a link from your site, email, or other communications to our ifttt.com website only. We will not pay commissions if someone says they signed up through you but it was not tracked by our Affiliate portal. We will not pay commissions on customers that subscribe through our mobile apps.

6.3. The affiliate commission is 20% of the first payment made to IFTTT by customers that you refer in accordance with section 6.2. The commission will be credited to your Affiliate account once the customer pays their subscription. Commissions are only earned if a customer makes a payment in full.

6.4. IFTTT uses a third party to handle all payment. The third party is PayPal.com. Kindly review the payment processors terms and conditions and User agreement.

6.4.1. Accrued commissions are paid to your PayPal account quarterly. You must have a valid PayPal account to receive commissions, as we do not offer payment via check, credit card, cash or other method.

6.4.2. Customer payments refunded or payments charged-back due to credit card fraud do not qualify for affiliate commissions. We may delay crediting of commissions subject to risk analysis considerations and Anti-Money Laundering procedures.

6.5. A summary of sign ups and statement of commissions is available to the Affiliate by logging into their Affiliate account.

6.6. The commission structure is subject to change at our discretion. We reserve the right to disqualify commissions earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly aggressive, questionable sales or marketing methods. All commissions are exclusive of all taxes, charges, levies, assessments and other fees of any kind imposed on your involvement in this Agreement and shall be the responsibility of, and payable by you. We reserve the right to check and change commissions on the basis of orders actually paid, the notification e-mail is not understood as a confirmed commission - this is only a notification, and every payment will be verified based on real transactions.

7. Access to Affiliate Account Interface

You will create a password so that you may enter IFTTT’s secure affiliate portal. From there, you will be able to receive your reports that will describe our calculation of the commissions due to you.

8. Promotion Restrictions

8.1. You are free to promote your own web sites, but naturally any promotion that mentions IFTTT could be perceived by the public or the press as a joint effort. You should know that certain forms of advertising are always prohibited by IFTTT. For example, advertising commonly referred to as "spamming" is unacceptable to us and could cause damage to our name. Other generally prohibited forms of advertising include the use of unsolicited commercial email (UCE), postings to non-commercial newsgroups and cross-posting to multiple newsgroups at once. In addition, you may not advertise in any way that effectively conceals or misrepresents your identity, your domain name, or your return email address. You may use mailings to customers to promote IFTTT so long as the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of your services or web site, and recipients have the option to remove themselves from future mailings. Also, you may post to newsgroups to promote IFTTT so long as the news group specifically welcomes commercial messages. At all times, you must clearly represent yourself and your websites as independent from IFTTT. If it comes to our attention that you are spamming, we will consider that cause for immediate termination of this Agreement and your participation in the IFTTT Affiliate Program. Any pending balances owed to you will not be paid if your account is terminated due to such unacceptable advertising or solicitation.

8.2. Affiliates are prohibited from promoting or adding additional keywords related to or referencing the products, services and functions of IFTTT through paid advertising channels, this includes but is not limited to Google Adwords, Bing, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Quora, Twitter, etc. Affiliates that among other keywords or exclusively bid in their Pay-Per-Click campaigns on keywords such as IFTTT, www.IFTTT, and/or any misspellings or similar alterations of these – be it separately or in combination with other keywords – and do not direct the traffic from such campaigns to their own website prior to re-directing it to ours, will be considered trademark violators, and will be banned from IFTTT’s Affiliate Program. We will do everything possible to contact the affiliate prior to the ban. However, we reserve the right to expel any trademark violator from our affiliate program without prior notice, and on the first occurrence of such PPC bidding behavior.

8.3. Affiliate shall not transmit any so-called “interstitials,” “Parasiteware™,” “Parasitic Marketing,” “Shopping Assistance Application,” “Toolbar Installations and/or Add-ons,” “Shopping Wallets” or “deceptive pop-ups and/or pop-unders” to consumers from the time the consumer clicks on a qualifying link until such time as the consumer has fully exited IFTTT’s site (i.e., no page from our site or any IFTTT’s content or branding is visible on the end-user’s screen). As used herein a. “Parasiteware™” and “Parasitic Marketing” shall mean an application that (a) through accidental or direct intent causes the overwriting of affiliate and non affiliate commission tracking cookies through any other means than a customer initiated click on a qualifying link on a web page or email; (b) intercepts searches to redirect traffic through an installed software, thereby causing, pop ups, commission tracking cookies to be put in place or other commission tracking cookies to be overwritten where a user would under normal circumstances have arrived at the same destination through the results given by the search (search engines being, but not limited to, Google, MSN, Yahoo, Overture, AltaVista, Hotbot and similar search or directory engines); (c) set commission tracking cookies through loading of IFTTT’s site in IFrames, hidden links and automatic pop ups that open IFTTT’s site; (d) targets text on web sites, other than those web sites 100% owned by the application owner, for the purpose of contextual marketing; (e) removes, replaces or blocks the visibility of Affiliate banners with any other banners, other than those that are on web sites 100% owned by the owner of the application.
