AuctionInc Affiliate Agreement
The AuctionInc Affiliate Program is only open to individuals with United States (or US Territories) mailing addresses and Web Sites, and is offered by AuctionInc.com, a brand of Paid, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: PAYD).

This Agreement contains the terms and conditions that apply to a participant in the AuctionInc Affiliate Program. As used in this agreement, "we"/"our"/"us" means Paid, Inc. or any of its associated companies, partners, or employees, "you"/"your" means the "affiliate/applicant", "Program" means the AuctionInc Affiliate Program, and "site" refers to a World Wide Web site.

To begin the enrollment process, you will submit a completed Affiliate Application form. We will evaluate your application in good faith and will notify you of your acceptance or rejection, usually within 24 hours. If rejected, you can re-apply at any time; however, unless you have made substantial changes in your site it will likely be rejected again. We may reject your application if we determine, in our sole discretion, that your site is unsuitable for the Program. Unsuitable sites include, for example, sites that:

promote sexually explicit materials
promote violence
promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or age
promote illegal activities or violate intellectual property rights
or from applicants whom we prefer not to be associated with

We grant you a non-exclusive, revocable right to use our present banners (and other such images you design and for which we grant express permission) for the purpose of identifying your site as a program participant and linking to our site. You may not modify our banners or images in any way without our express permission.

We reserve all of our rights to our trade names and trademarks and all other intellectual property rights.

SPAM (unsolicited email)

We will not tolerate the sending of unsolicited bulk emails which promote or make reference to AuctionInc, or any of its associated companies, partners, or employees. Other prohibited forms of advertising include postings to non-commercial newsgroups and cross-posting to multiple newsgroups at once. In addition, Affiliates may not advertise in any way that effectively conceals or misrepresents their identity, their domain name or their return email address.

Any Affiliate suspected of breeching this rule will have their Affiliate status cancelled immediately and any and all outstanding commissions WILL BE FORFEITED.

Stay Safe, Don't SPAM.

We will NOT revoke affiliate status to avoid payment of owed or future commissions.
