PPUSA will use the Links to track sales made to customers who purchase products through a Link from the Site to PPUSA’s websites.

You acknowledge that by entering into this Agreement PPUSA does not assume, and should not be exposed to, the business and operational risks associated with your business or any aspects of the operation or content of the Site.

These responsibilities include:

1. the technical operation of the Site and all related equipment;
2. the accuracy, timeliness and appropriateness of material posted on the Site (including but not limited to all product-related materials);

4. ensuring that content (other than Content that is used as permitted hereunder) posted on the Site is not libelous or otherwise illegal; and
5. notifying PPUSA of any malfunctioning Links or other problems with your participation in the Program.

PPUSA has the right, in PPUSA’s sole and absolute discretion, to monitor the Site at any time and from time to time to determine whether you are in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and you agree to provide PPUSA with unrestricted access to the Site for that purpose.

PPUSA disclaims all liability for all matters relating to the Site (other than Content).

The information provided on PPUSA’s websites and in PPUSA’s online advertisements is intended for a consumer’s general knowledge only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment for specific medical conditions. Consumers should always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified health care provider with any questions regarding medical conditions. The information on PPUSA’s websites and in PPUSA’s online advertisements has not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Consumers should never disregard medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something they have read on PPUSA’s websites or in PPUSA’s online advertisements. The Site will not represent PPUSA’s websites, PPUSA’s online advertisements or PPUSA’s products in any way that will conflict with these statements.

The Site will not copy, reproduce, display, or contain any content obtained or derived from PPUSA’s websites or any materials which are proprietary to PPUSA, except (i) with PPUSA’s prior written permission, or (ii) materials which are obtained by you via PPUSA under the provisions of this Agreement or the policies or instructions related to this material. You will not purchase or otherwise contract with a third party to exploit any of PPUSA’s proprietary materials for the purpose of causing the Site to appear as a search result or for any other reason.

5. Orders

You will earn a referral fee for orders of products placed by customers via the Links (“Orders”) according to fee schedules established by PPUSA (“Standard Commissions”). PPUSA will process all Orders under PPUSA’s policies and applicable legal requirements.

A valid Order will accrue Commissions (as defined below) if a customer does the following:

1. uses a web browser that has its cookies setting enabled on a device;
2. follows a Link from the Site to PPUSA’s websites (provided it is the last link to PPUSA’s websites that the customer uses before making the purchase).
3. allows a cookie to be placed on the device at that time, expiring in 30 days;
4. purchases a product(s) using PPUSA’s online ordering system within 30 days of the cookie being placed on the device;
5. accepts delivery of the product at the shipping destination;
6. remits full payment to PPUSA; and
7. not purchase products for resale.

Reports summarizing Order activity will be available to you through the Portal. The form, content, and frequency of the reports are limited to those reports and capabilities available through the Portal and may vary from time to time in PPUSA’s and the Portal’s reasonable discretion.

PPUSA is not responsible for any changes it may make in the format, timing, or types of reports made available to you, nor for the accuracy or completeness of such reports.

6. Offers

From time to time, PPUSA may post on the Portal special promotional campaigns (“Offers”) on specific PPUSA products (“Offer Products”) that you may participate in. Such Offers will utilize custom Links to track sales of Offer Products (“Offer Links”) and may be subject to a different referral fee (“Offer Commissions”, together with Standard Commissions, “Commissions”). Offer Commissions, if any, will be specified in the Offers, but will otherwise be computed and paid to you as specified for Commissions below.

The terms of Offers will be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. However, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of a specific Offer and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Offer will govern.

At any time prior to PPUSA providing you an Offer Link, PPUSA may, with or without notice, (a) change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of an Offer, or (b) remove, alter, or modify any graphic Offer Links provided to you pursuant to an Offer. You agree to promptly implement any request from PPUSA to remove, alter or modify any graphic or banner ad submitted on the Site that is being used in connection with an Offer.

Either party may terminate an Offer at any time by deleting its acceptance of the Offer through the Portal. Termination of a specific Offer will not be deemed to terminate any other Offers. Termination of this Agreement will also terminate any outstanding Offer.

7. Computation of Commissions

You will earn Commissions based on the Net Price of all completed, valid Orders. “Net Price” means the sale price of products listed on PPUSA’s websites less any coupon or customer discount and excludes (i) amounts collected by PPUSA for taxes, shipping, handling, insurance, rebates, gift-wrapping and similar ancillary services; (ii) amounts not collected due to credit card fraud or bad debt; and (iii) costs incurred due to invalid customer name or address information, returns, suspected or actual fraud. Commissions may be further reduced if PPUSA determines, in its sole discretion, Orders to be unacceptable.

Please note, PPUSA is unable to track Orders from web browsers that do not have their cookies setting enabled, as such you will not earn to Commissions on such Orders. Additionally, you will not earn Commissions on:

1. any orders using promotional codes exclusive to PPUSA’s other marketing channels, such as e-mail or print promotions;
2. any orders requiring Customer service invoice adjustments;
3. any orders that are reorders;
4. any orders you directly or indirectly place or cause to be placed exceeding (i) $500 in value or (ii) 50 or more units of the same SKU; or
5. any orders you directly or indirectly place that PPUSA considers products purchased for resale, including but not limited to you placing 10 or more Orders within a one-month period.

8. Commission Payment

You will be paid accrued Commissions on a monthly basis through the Portal according to the payment procedure stated on the Portal. You are solely responsible for any and all tax obligations due to all taxing authorities arising from or in connection with your participation in the Program, including but not limited to taxes resulting from payment of Commissions to you.

PPUSA reserves the right to withhold payment of Commissions for orders or referrals that were obtained fraudulently or through misrepresentation pending an investigation of suspected fraud or misrepresentation by PPUSA or the relevant legal authorities. PPUSA is obligated by U.S. federal law to obtain tax information from you if you are a U.S. citizen, U.S. resident, or U.S. corporation or if you are not a U.S. citizen or resident but your business is taxable in the U.S. If PPUSA believes it is obligated to obtain tax information from you and you do not provide this information to PPUSA after PPUSA has requested it, PPUSA may withhold Commissions until you provide this information or otherwise satisfy PPUSA that you are not a person from whom PPUSA are required to obtain tax information.

9. Policies and Pricing

Customers who buy products through the Program will be deemed to be PPUSA’s customers, without affecting their status as your customer. Accordingly, only PPUSA’s rules, policies and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service and sales will apply to those customers. PPUSA may change PPUSA’s policies and operating procedures at any time in PPUSA’s sole discretion. For example, PPUSA will determine the prices to be charged for products sold under the Program in accordance with PPUSA’s own pricing policies. Product prices and availability may vary from time to time. PPUSA will use commercially reasonable efforts to present accurate information, but PPUSA cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular product or the error-free or uninterrupted operation of PPUSA’s websites.

10. Term of this Agreement

The term of this Agreement will begin upon your acceptance into the Program and will end when terminated by either party. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party prior written notice of termination. In addition, PPUSA reserve the right to terminate this Agreement immediately and without prior notice if you breach any provision of this Agreement, or if PPUSA determine, in PPUSA’s sole discretion, that the Site is unsuitable for the Program.

Upon termination of this Agreement, you will immediately cease use of, and remove from the Site, all links to PPUSA’s websites and all Licensed Materials (as defined below) and related content.

You are only eligible to earn Commissions on Orders occurring during the term of this Agreement, and Commissions earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the Orders are not canceled or returned by a customer. In addition, PPUSA may invoice you for Commissions that were paid to you before termination if those Commissions relate to Qualifying Products that are subsequently canceled or returned by a customer and only during the period of cookie placement as stated in section 7 of this document. If any other overpayment is made by PPUSA, you agree to promptly remit such excess payment upon notification by PPUSA. PPUSA may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount is paid.

All rights or remedies arising out of a breach of any terms of this Agreement will survive any such termination of this Agreement.

10a. Inactivity

If your Affiliate account is inactive for a period of 12 consecutive months, it will be deemed “inactive”. Inactive accounts will be deleted from PPUSA’s system. As a result, any earned, unpaid commissions will be forfeited.

11. Publicity

You will not create, publish, distribute, or permit any written material (e.g., press releases, marketing material or screen shots) that makes reference to PPUSA without first submitting such material to PPUSA and receiving PPUSA’s prior written consent, which PPUSA may withheld, delayed or conditioned in PPUSA’s sole discretion.

21. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

This Agreement and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of, or relate to these Terms; the negotiation, execution, or performance of these Terms (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with these Terms or as an inducement to enter into these Terms); or to any products or services sold or distributed by PPUSA or through pacificnatures.com or pharma-america.com (a “Dispute”), is governed by the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any conflict of law rules or regulations.

You irrevocably agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in San Bernardino County, California to resolve any Disputes and you shall not to raise any objection or defense based upon inconvenience of forum or similar concerns.

YOU AND PPUSA EACH WAIVE 1) THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND 2) THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

The prevailing party in any dispute will be entitled to recover from the losing party its costs (including but not limited to reasonable costs of collection, attorneys’ fees and investigative fees).

21. Equitable Relief

Any breach of either of the party’s obligations regarding trademarks, service marks, trade names, confidentiality, links or the removal of links or user data may result in irreparable injury for which there may be no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of a party’s obligations regarding trademarks, service marks, trade names, confidentiality, links or the removal of links, or user data, the aggrieved party will be entitled to seek equitable relief in addition to its other available legal remedies in a court of competent jurisdiction.

22. Assignment

25. Waiver PPUSA’s failure to enforce your strict performance of any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of PPUSA’s right to subsequently enforce such provision or any other provision of this Agreement.

26. Force Majeure
