3. Acceptable Advertising Methods
   As an affiliate, you earn commission by generating sales of our products or services. You generate the sales by encouraging web users to visit our sites. After you have been accepted into the program you may display Affiliate Links on your site. “Affiliate Links” are links to our site that properly utilize the special link formats we provide (including the Affiliate ID you received). Affiliate Links permit accurate tracking, reporting, and accrual of advertising fees. Affiliate links may be created by you or made available to you by us. You are solely responsible for the placement, content, and style of each link that you place on your site or use in promoting our products and services, and for ensuring that affiliate links include the appropriate formatting necessary for us to properly track referrals of customers from your site. For example, you must include your Affiliate ID (appearing as ‘ref=XXXXXX’ where ‘XXXXXX’ is your unique affiliate identifier, or such other format as we may designate) as a parameter in the URL of each link you place on your site to our sites. Any affiliate 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 or clicks to our site. Incentivized commissions and offering any form of incentive to obtain a sale is forbidden, unless prior approval is given by us.
   You may advertise our products or services via:
   – Text links, widgets, graphical banners, or other affiliate linking tools on your site;
   – Text links, graphical banners, or other affiliate linking tools in solicited messages via electronic messaging systems or other media;
   – Ready-made affiliate stores (shops) built around our affiliate data feed.
4. Order Processing
   We will process orders placed by customers who follow affiliate links from your site to our site. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject orders that do not comply with certain requirements that we may establish from time to time. All aspects of order processing and fulfillment, cancellation, processing, refunds, and payment processing will be our responsibility. We will track the orders generated by your site and will make this information available to you through our site. To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and commission accrual, you must ensure that the affiliate links between your site and our site are properly formatted. It is our sole decision to collect orders and to have a list of available payment methods for the customers. We keep the right to either add or remove a payment method without any prior notice. You are not allowed to add any payment method other than that offered by Template-help.com, an authorized agent of Lawyers123.org.

Any violations of the terms surrounding order processing shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and may result in your termination from the program and withholding any unpaid commissions.
5. Referral Fees Schedule
   For a product and/or service sale to be eligible to earn a referral fee (commission), the customer must click-through an affiliate link to our site and purchase our product and/or service within 365 days following the customer’s initial click-through. You will earn referral fees according to referral fee schedules established by us and shown below.
   Tier 1 referral fees are payable to you in the case you generate products and/or services sales derived from customers referred directly by you.

Project/Site Referral Fee (tier 1)
Lawyers123.org.com 30%
Tier 2 referral fees are payable to you in the case you generate products and/or services sales derived from customers referred by your referred affiliates (sub-affiliates). A referred affiliate (sub-affiliate) is an individual, a company or any legal entity that enrolls in the program after being referred to it by another affiliate (supervisor).

Project/Site Referral Fee (tier 2)

You are not allowed to apply for the program and register yourself as a sub-affiliate. If such an action is attempted then we have the right to terminate your affiliate membership, terminate all associated affiliate accounts, and withhold any unpaid commissions. The same applies to being a supervisor of an affiliate account owned by an individual or an entity you have or may have some sort of control. The referral fee value set in Referral Fees Schedules will be decreased by the discount value if any discount was applied to the order. No referral fee will be credited to your account for orders made with discount over referral fee value from full cost. Commission structure is subject to change at our discretion. Commissions earned under the previous structure will be paid under the previous structure. Commissions under the new structure will be paid under the new structure. We reserve the right to disqualify commissions earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly aggressive, questionable sales or marketing methods. We reserve the right to withhold commissions and terminate affiliate accounts for affiliates that repeatedly refer customers that ask for refunds.

6. Referral Fees Payment
   Affiliates are paid a commission, based on values set in Referral Fees Schedule. Commissions will be paid within 5 business days after your request if the sum of commissions exceeds the minimum transfer amount of 100 USD for payments via Paypal. Commissions will be paid within 5 business days after your request if the sum of commissions exceeds the minimum transfer amount of 800 USD for payments via Wire Transfer. We also give you an option to use your commissions as a credit for purchasing products provided by our company with a 20% discount (the option is available for purchasing products from Lawyers123.org.com that have the download count above zero). If you have not earned any Tier 1 referral fees (as set in Referral Fees Schedule) or haven’t logged into your affiliate account within 12 months period prior to any given month, then on the first day of that month we may close your account, terminate this Agreement and withhold any unpaid commissions.
7. Term of Agreement
   The term of this Agreement will begin upon our approval of your Program application and will end when terminated by either you or us. Either you or we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice of termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement, you will immediately cease use of, and remove from your site, all affiliate links to our site and any other promotional materials that we provided to you as to an affiliate. “Cause” means any of the following: you are in material breach of this Agreement; we believe that we may face potential claims or liability in connection with your participation in the program; we believe that our brand or reputation may be tarnished by you or in connection with your participation in the program; we have terminated the program as we generally make it available to participants. Any violation of Section 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. You are eligible to earn referral fees only for orders that occur during the term of Agreement. Referral fees earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the related orders are not cancelled or returned. We may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount is paid (e.g., to account for any order cancellations or returns). If the sum of unpaid commissions exceeds the minimum transfer amount of 100 USD you are eligible to receive the final payment via Paypal or Wire Transfer as set in Section 6 (Referral Fees Payment), otherwise you are given an option to use your commission as a credit for purchasing products provided by our company (as set in Section 6).
