FOODZILLA AFFILIATE AGREEMENT
Last update: 1/11/2022

This agreement describes the terms and conditions for participation in the Foodzilla affiliate program. In this agreement, the term “Affiliate” refers to you (the applicant). In this agreement, Foodzilla refers to the product owner and publisher, Zilla Technologies.

SECTION 1 - Modification

We may modify any of the terms and conditions within this Agreement at any time and at our sole discretion. These modifications may include, but not limited to changes in the scope of available referral fees, fee schedules, payment procedures and Affiliate Program rules. If any of the modifications are UNACCEPTABLE TO YOU, your only recourse is to terminate this Agreement. If you CONTINUE PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM, it will be considered as your acceptance of the change.

SECTION 2 - Enrollment

To enroll in the affiliate program, you must submit an affiliate application and be approved. Applications are processed and notified of their acceptance status as soon as possible after their information is reviewed.

Foodzilla reserves the right to decline new applicants without needing to provide a reason.

SECTION 3 - Affiliate URL

You will be issued a special URL once you become an approved member of the Foodzilla Affiliate Program which will be unique to you and you only, and will allow you to be paid for affiliate referrals.

SECTION 4 - Commissions

Affiliates will receive 20% of the revenue as a commission from paid subscriptions purchased through properly coded Affiliate links (unless noted otherwise for a particular product). Commissions will be paid out for a maximum of 12 months or until termination of subscription by subscriber, whichever comes first. We reserve the right to waive commissions at our discretion during limited time special promotions.

Additional commission rates are available at the discretion of Foodzilla for select affiliates.

For a sale to generate a commission to an Affiliate, the customer must complete the subscription form and remit full payment for the plan purchased through the secure order system. Word of mouth referrals will not result in an affiliate commission being generated. Commissions will only be paid on sales that are made when the customer clicks through qualified, correctly structured Affiliate links. Properly coded links are the sole responsibility of the affiliate.

  • Electronic mail messages addressed to a recipient with whom the sender does not have an existing business or personal relationship or is not sent at the request of, or with the express consent of, the recipient through an opt in subscription;
  • Messages posted to Usenet, forums, Twitter, Facebook and message boards that are off-topic (unrelated to the topic of discussion), cross-posted to unrelated newsgroups, posted in excessive volume, or posted against forum/message board rules. Be conscious of forum rules! If a forum owner or moderator complains that an affiliate has spammed, the affiliate account may be permanently terminated after investigation.
  • Content posted on free blog websites for the sole purpose of keyword spamming, or comments posted to legitimate blogs that violate the comment policy of the blog owner.
  • Solicitations posted to chat rooms, or to groups or individuals via Internet Relay Chat or “Instant Messaging” system;
  • Certain off-line activities that, while not considered Spam, are similar in nature, including distributing flyers or leaflets on private property or where prohibited by applicable rules, regulations, or laws.

Account Termination: Upon the receipt of a credible complaint, the Foodzilla Affiliate Program manager may investigate the complaint, and if necessary, will then terminate the affiliate account of the individual implicated in the abuse. Termination results in the immediate closure of the member and affiliate account, the loss of all referrals, and the forfeiture of any unpaid money on account. At Foodzilla discretion, termination may not only result in being banned from the affiliate program, but also being banned from ANY other internal affiliate programs.
