b. THE COMPANY may, in its sole discretion, decline any application to become a Brand Ambassador for any reason or no reason at all, in which case YOU shall not be deemed to be a Brand Ambassador or to participate in the Program, nor shall YOU be entitled to any compensation or other benefits thereunder.

b. Upon YOU becoming a Brand Ambassador, THE COMPANY will assign to YOU a unique identifier code (your “Code”). YOU may from time to time publish, distribute, or use the Code in communications with customers or potential customers of THE COMPANY. If, but only if, a customer of THE COMPANY purchases a product or product directly from THE COMPANY through THE COMPANY’S website and duly, validly, timely, and accurately enters your Code at the time of such purchase, then YOU will be credited with such purchase by THE COMPANY.
c. WE will periodically communicate with YOU in a manner consistent with the ordinary course of the Program.
d. THE COMPANY may, in its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason at all, terminate YOUR participation in the Program or your status as a Brand Ambassador, or modify or amend the terms (including without limitation compensation) of, or terminate, the Program. Any such termination of YOUR participation in the Program or of YOUR status as a Brand Ambassador shall be effective upon US giving YOU notice thereof using the contact information YOU provided to US upon application to the Program. Any such modification or amendment of the terms of, or termination of, the Program shall be effective upon us publishing the modified or amended terms of, or the termination of the Program on OUR website, whether or not YOU have been sent or received notice thereof in any other manner.
III. Compensation
a. If, but only if, you are credited with a customer purchase by THE COMPANY as provided in paragraph IIb above, then YOU will be entitled to the payment by US of a specified percentage of the amount of such purchase, excluding taxes, tariffs, and shipping costs; provided, however, that YOU will not be credited (or if YOU have previously been credited, such credit will be reversed in whole) in the case of purchases of products that are subsequently returned, disputed, or charged back.
b. The specified percentage is currently 20.00%, unless YOU are a party to an agreement or understanding with an agent, manager, or other representative under which YOU have agreed to a lesser percentage, in which case the specified percentage payable to YOU in accordance with the foregoing will be the percentage set forth in such agreement or understanding, as the same may be amended or modified from time to time.
c. THE COMPANY shall generally remit payments to YOU weekly. However, THE COMPANY may elect to make payments less frequently at its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason at all, and such election may be made with respect to certain Brand Ambassador’s payments but not to other Brand Ambassador’s payments. The frequency with which THE COMPANY makes any particular payment to YOU shall not obligate US to make any other payment with the same frequency.
d. WE will make all payments to the account with a financial institution located in the United States that YOU last provided to us, in US Dollars, by wire transfer, ACH, PayPal, Venmo, or any other means selected by us in our discretion. WE are not responsible for payments that are misdirected, lost, or otherwise not received by YOU or not credited to your account, for any reason.
e. YOU shall be fully responsible for all federal, state, and local tax filings, payments, and other obligations arising out of or relating to the payments paid to YOU. YOU shall also duly complete and return to US any form or filing reasonably requested by US to comply with any federal, state, local, or foreign tax, governmental, or regulatory requirement, and YOU authorize US to provide information about YOU and YOUR participation in the Program to any federal, state, local, or foreign tax, regulatory, or governmental authority.
f. The amounts credited to and paid to YOU from time to time shall be determined by THE COMPANY based on its records. Such records shall be conclusively deemed to be accurate, absent manifest error. If YOU dispute the amount of any payment, YOU must submit written notification to THE COMPANY that a dispute exists and specify in detail the nature of the dispute no later than 60 days after the receipt of the payment to which such dispute relates. If YOU fail to submit the required written notification within the prescribed time period, the dispute will be deemed to no longer exist and YOU will be deemed to have unconditionally accepted the payment for all services rendered during the time period to which such payment relates.
g. YOU acknowledge and agree that THE COMPANY can deduct from, offset against, and recoup from any payment the amount of any cost, claim, refund, chargeback, loss, or expense arising out of or relating to any purchase giving rise to a previous payment, arising out of or relating to any act or omission by or on behalf of YOU, constituting an overpayment to YOU at any prior time and for any reason, and/or constituting an Indemnified Cost within the meaning of paragraph VIa hereof (each, a “Covered Loss”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that THE COMPANY shall have full recourse against YOU for any Covered Loss or other refund, chargeback, cost, claim, loss or expense incurred by US for any reason attributable to YOU, or attributable to purchases using YOUR Code. YOU expressly grant THE COMPANY a Right to Deduction, Setoff and/or Recoupment described herein for the purpose of recovering any Covered Losses suffered or incurred by US. In the event that WE assert any such Right of Deduction, Setoff and/or Recoupment, WE shall provide YOU with notice thereof, provided that failure to give such notice shall not limit or affect OUR right or ability to exercise such Right of Deduction, Setoff and/or Recoupment.
IV. Term and Termination
Either YOU or WE can terminate your participation in the Program, effective immediately upon notice. No such termination shall affect the rights or remedies of YOU or US arising or accrued prior to the effective date of such termination.
