The Pleasure Chest Affiliate Terms and Conditions

This Agreement (the "Agreement") is made by and between The Pleasure Chest, Ltd (“PC”), 156 7 th Avenue South , New York , NY 10014 and you, ("Affiliate") as a user of The Pleasure Chest Affiliate Program (“Program”).

To be an authorized affiliate of PC, Affiliate agrees to abide by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. Please read this Agreement carefully before registering and using the Program. By clicking on the " I AGREE" link at the bottom of the signup page and using the Program, Affiliate indicates Affiliate's acceptance of this Agreement and its terms and conditions.

Authorized Affiliate

To request enrollment, Affiliate will submit a complete Program application via PC's web site. PC will evaluate Affiliate's application and respond promptly with notification of Affiliate's acceptance or rejection to the Program. PC reserves the right, at PC's sole discretion, to reject an applicant due to applicant's web site scope, content or incompatibility with PC's business mission. PC operates the Program which allows web sites to run and/or participate in the Program. Affiliate wishes to become an authorized affiliate and utilize the Program. As an authorized affiliate, Affiliate will be establishing Revenue Sharing arrangements with PC.

Links

PC will provide Affiliate with guidelines in linking to PC's web site. To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and referral fee accrual, PC will provide Affiliate with special "tagged" link formats to be used in all links between Affiliate's site and PC's site. Affiliate must ensure that each of the links between Affiliate's site and PC's site properly utilizes such special link formats. Links to PC's site placed on Affiliate's site pursuant to this Agreement and which properly utilize such special link formats are referred to as "Qualifying links." Affiliate will only earn Revenue Sharing with respect to purchases from PC's site occurring directly through Qualifying links. PC will not be liable to Affiliate with respect to any failure by Affiliate to use Qualifying links, including to the extent that such failure may result in any reduction of amounts, which would otherwise be paid to Affiliate pursuant to this Agreement.

Affiliate shall not provide, promote, distribute, place or otherwise publish any link on a web site that includes content, which is libelous, defamatory, obscene, pornographic, abusive, fraudulent or violates any law. As PC may not review all information provided by Affiliate, Affiliate shall remain solely responsible for Affiliate's content and web site. Links may not be placed in newsgroups, unsolicited e-mail, banner networks, counters, chatrooms or guestbooks. Any link placed must be done in such a way that it is not misleading to any visitor and done with the intention of delivering valid sales to the related PC for that link.

Revenue Sharing

PC will share revenue with Affiliate on certain Product sales to third parties. For a Product sale to be eligible to be shared revenue, the customer must follow a Qualifying link from Affiliate's site to PC's site, select and purchase the Product using PC's automated ordering system, accept delivery of the Product at the shipping destination, and remit full payment to PC.

PC shall have the sole right and responsibility for processing all orders made by customers. Affiliate acknowledges that all agreements shall be between PC and the Customer.

Affiliate Payment

Affiliate will receive revenues for sending PC authorized sales via Affiliate's links. Affiliate is responsible for determining if the Payout for a purchase Affiliate has provided has changed or been discontinued. Affiliate receives the shared revenue from PC. Payments are made automatically on a quarterly schedule. The payments are made on the following schedule:

Commission accrued between January 1st and March 31st will be paid on April 15th.

Commission accrued between April 1st and June 30st will be paid on July 15th.

Commission accrued between July 1st and September 30st will be paid on October 15th.

Commission accrued between October 1st and December 31st will be paid on January 15th of the following year.

Fees amounting to less than $50 are carried over into the following quarter.

Money credited to Your Account does not accrue interest.

In the event of a Chargeback, PC may recover from Affiliate the corresponding Commission previously credited to Affiliate's account. The Chargeback shared revenue will be immediately deducted from Affiliate's account balance. In the event that Affiliate account balance is less than the Chargeback shared revenue, the Chargeback shared revenue will be deducted against Affiliate's future earnings.

Policies and Pricing

Customers who buy products through this Program will be deemed to be customers of PC. Accordingly, all PC policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales will apply to those customers.
