TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AFFILIATE PROGRAM

WE ARE HAPPY TO WELCOME YOU INTO OUR AFFILIATE PROGRAM THAT ALLOWS YOU TO GENERATE AUTOMATIC INCOMES BY ADVERTISING OUR PRODUCTS

This program allows you to make our products are known to your website users and lets you earn a commission corresponding to the agreed percentage of the price of every purchase made by the website user. The sum of money owed to you will be immediately credited to your own Signature Custom Designs account.

This text has to be held as an additional part of SCD General Terms and Conditions and everything defined in there has to be held as valid. In the case of inconsistencies between the two, SCD Affiliate Terms and Conditions prevail.

Below in the text you will find explained details concerning how “Becoming an Affiliate” works, payments and further details concerning the Affiliate Program.

BECOMING A SIGNATURE CUSTOM DESIGNS AFFILIATE

Here you will find how SCD Affiliate Program works.

For each website user coming to our online store by means of a link or a banner that you have advertised you can earn a provision equal to the agreed percentage on the purchase price for each order made by that website user.

From your personal page on SCD you will receive an affiliate link (or referral link) that will be automatically generated from your username. You can paste it on your website or use banners with that link and advertise it on your website.

Any of your website users coming to our store by means of that link and purchasing any product in our store, will grant you a commission on the purchase.

COOKIES
An important section of Terms and Conditions has to be devoted to cookies.

We use cookies to track website users that reach our store by means of your affiliate link (or referral link). If your website users do not allow or clear cookies, we will not be able to track your affiliate link and therefore we will not be able to pay you the provision.

You should also remember that cookies are available for three months time. If your website users visit our online store, but they make a purchase only after this term, you cannot be entitled to the provision anymore.

PAYMENTS
In this section, you will find how payments of the provisions will be made.

MINIMUM THRESHOLD
Each provision you earn will be credited to your SCD account, so you allow us to pay provisions to you and credit them to your account. You can require the payment of the credit in your SCD account as soon as you reach the minimum amount of €50. Contrary to it, if you prefer to use the income coming from your provisions (or part of it) for purchases in our marketplace, you can do it at any moment, regardless of the minimum threshold. You must only be sure that provisions in your account are enough to purchase the product you are interested in.

PAYMENT METHODS
SCD keeps your earnings safe until you require payment. Unless we decide to pay your earnings before, they will be kept safe for you until we get a request for payment from you.

The moment we get the request for payment, you will receive the payment by the 15th of the following month. If the 15th happens to be a holiday, you will receive the payment the first following working day available. The moment you send the request, we will ask you to enter your correct data. Payments will be done through PayPal and any possible expense for payment will be charged to you.

PROTECTION OF THE USERS
– You cannot do any act that could be confusing, misleading, or deceptive for users, inter alias, confuse them about the fact that your website is managed or authorized by SCD (e.g. by emulating graphic elements from our website).
– Our trademarks or domains or intellectual properties are property of SCD and you cannot use them, except for explicitly authorized banners and creativities made available here by SCD to our affiliates.
– You cannot purchase a domain name, search engine keywords nor pay-per-click advertisements that use our trademarks or any possible variation of them, nor use texts that describe our products unless you receive our official consent.
– You cannot act against users in any form that is a law violation, including spam, privacy, intellectual property violations, fraud, confusing actions for new users, or links purposely made to deceive customers.
– You cannot act in any way that is direct or indirect contravention of SCD Terms and Conditions, nor behaving in any way that does not conform to our standards.

AFFILIATE PERCENTAGE
The affiliate percentage for our products is set as 10% of the purchase price. So, for example, if a website user reaches us through your link and places an order that costs €100, your provision is €10 (that is, 10% of the product purchase price).

VALIDITY OF RIGHT TO PROVISION
In order to be entitled to the provision, website users that reach our website shall not have an SCD account.

F.A.Q.
“What happens if the buyer has come to SCD by following two different affiliate links, my affiliate link and another person’s one?”

If website users come to our online store through more than one affiliate link, the first one they access is to be held as the only one deserving the provision. For example, if one of your website users reaches our online store through your link first, then once again through the affiliate link of another person, and only then purchases, you will be the one entitled to the provision for that purchase.

KEEPING YOUR EARNINGS
If for any reason we cannot pay your earnings, we will keep them safe, including the circumstances in which we do not have the correct payment data or we are not able to contact you using the contact data you gave us. We will keep your earnings safe also if you ask us to make the payment to a person or an institution and it cannot be done for any reason, whether for legal or banking restrictions.

CURRENCY CONVERSION
Any time we make a payment as an affiliate, we are not responsible for currency conversion of your earnings from € Euros into your favorite currency, nor are we responsible for possible conversion costs that your financial institution might apply.

REFUND
If any of the purchases related to your affiliate earnings is subject to refund or chargeback, we can at our discretion withdraw also the concerned commission from your Affiliate earnings.

FAIRNESS POLICY
We reserve the right to decide whether or not your use of the Affiliate Program complies with SCD Affiliate Program Terms or with SCD Terms and Conditions. If we decide that your participation in the Affiliate Program does not comply, after official communication, we can withdraw your earnings and may disable your account.

SCD Affiliate Program is subject to a fairness and integrity policy that has to be respected, and that entitles SCD to consider revising for each unfair affiliate.
