When used throughout this Agreement, “we” and “us” refer to Pawsjawz.com, and “you” and “your” refer to the applicant. “Site” refers to a specific URL or World Wide Web site which, depending on the context used in this Agreement, may refer to a site operated by the applicant.

  1. How to enroll in the Pawsjawz.com Affiliate Program

    You apply to participate in the Program by completing our application. By completing and submitting an application, you acknowledge and agree to all the terms of this Agreement. We will evaluate your application and notify you by email if you have or have not been accepted into the Program. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to exclude any site that we feel is inappropriate. Sites which we consider inappropriate include, but are not limited to, sites that contain or promote violence or sexually explicit content or products, sites that promote illegal activities, sites that discriminate on the basis of race, sex, age, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or religion, and sites that violate intellectual property rights.

  2. Linking to Pawsjawz.com site

    You will provide a link on your site to a specific website address (the “special link” code) which we will supply to you upon your acceptance into the Program. This link must conform to all the standards set forth in this Agreement.

  3. Order Processing

    We will process all product orders placed by customers who follow the special link from your site to the Pawsjawz.com site. We reserve the right to reject orders that do not comply with any requirements that we may establish periodically. We will be responsible for all aspects of order processing and fulfillment including, but not limited to, processing payments, order cancellations, product returns, and customer service. We will track sales made to customers who purchase products using the special link from your site to our site. To ensure that you receive appropriate credit for sales that originated from your site, it is your responsibility to correctly implement the special link between your site and our site. We are not responsible for errors made on your part.

  4. Referral Fees

    We will pay you a referral fee for all sales that meet all of the following criteria:
    • The customer clicks the link from your site to the Pawsjawz.com site.
    • As we are not affiliated with the Pawz Dog Boots, referral fees are only applicable to Paws Jawz products.
    • The customer must purchase a product or products within 30 days of the date they follow the special link from your site to Pawsjawz.com and within that time the customer does not (a) click on the link of another one of our affiliates, or (b) turn off or otherwise disabled the “cookie” set when they clicked on the special link,
    • The customer must accept delivery of the product and remit full payment to us.

    Referral fees are considered earned when the order is shipped from our warehouse. If the order is shipped in more than one shipment on more than a single day, the referral fee will be paid according to the ship dates of the products.

    You will not be paid a referral fee on any item that is returned to us by the customer or if returned in a subsequent period, the original referral will be deducted from the subsequent referral commission check.

    You may purchase products during sessions initiated through the links on your site for your own use. However, you may not purchase products through your affiliate link and use another coupon code as well. One discount per customer; such purchases may result (in our sole discretion) in the withholding of referral fees or the termination of this Agreement.

    Pawsjawz.com affiliates receive payment by the 30th of every month for the commission earned between the first and the last day of the previous calendar month. Payments of commissions shall be made directly to you as per your preferred payment method elected by you as part of your application process. Should your commissions exceed $600 throughout the year, you will be required to fill out a W9 form which can be found here: IRS W9 Form

  5. Program Policies and Pricing

    Those customers who buy products through the Affiliate Program will be deemed to be customers of Pawsjawz.com. Therefore, all rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales are defined exclusively by Pawsjawz.com. We reserve the right to change our product pricing, policies, and general operating procedures at any time.

  6. Link Format Requirements

    You can use any of our approved Pawsjawz.com banners or logos we provide. When users click on this banner/logo, you must have linked to use with the code we supply you with to forward the customer to our store.
