1.1 BuyGoods is an online retailer, where customers come to buy great products they love. BuyGoods additionally provides a proprietary online platform, including without limitation the website located at https://backoffice.buygoods.com (the "Site"), the services offered on or through the Site, and any servers, computers or networks used to provide the Site (collectively, the "Services"). This Agreement applies to Advertisers and Affiliates, and is a legally binding contract. For purposes of this Agreement, "Advertiser" is defined as any person or entity that submits one or more Products for sale via the BuyGoods Site or Services, and "Affiliate" is defined as any persons and/or entities that Promote (defined below) Products made available via the Services.
1.2 This Agreement includes the BuyGoods Privacy Policy, as amended from time to time, and applies to Your use of the Services, the Site and all purchases of Products made or confirmed through the Site. You understand and agree that this Agreement is legally binding and enforceable against You, and any entity by which You are employed or affiliated and on whose behalf the Products are purchased, sold, promoted, and/or used. If You are agreeing to this Agreement on behalf of yourself and such entity, You represent that You have the authority to bind the entity to this Agreement. The terms "You" and "Your" refer to each Advertiser and Affiliate, individually, and to each such entity. You hereby represent and warrant that You have carefully read and understand this Agreement, that You are of legal age under the laws of Your country (e.g., eighteen years of age or older in the European Union and United States), and that You accept this Agreement freely, voluntarily, and with full knowledge and understanding of its terms and conditions.
2.1 You will be required to register for an account in order to sell or promote Products, and use the Services. When You provide information during the registration process, You agree to provide only true, accurate, current and complete information and to update it as necessary to maintain its truth and accuracy. If You provide any information to BuyGoods that is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or if BuyGoods has reason to believe that the information You provided is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, BuyGoods may: (a) suspend or terminate Your account; (b) use electronic self-help means to terminate Your ability to access the Products or Services, as permitted by applicable law; and/or (c) terminate this Agreement.
2.2 If You register for a BuyGoods account, You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under Your account, and You agree You will not sell, transfer or assign Your account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of Your password, user ID, and other account credentials, and you may not permit others to use Your account credentials or your account. You shall immediately notify BuyGoods of any unauthorized use of Your account credentials, or any other breach of security that is known or suspected by You.
2.3 BuyGoods reserves the right to terminate Your account or otherwise deny You access to your account, the Site, and/or the Services, in BuyGoods's sole discretion without notice and without liability.
If You register any Products for sale via the Services, you are deemed a Advertiser, and You agree, acknowledge, represent and warrant that:
3.1 All Products You register for sale via the Services must be approved by BuyGoods prior to You being able to list the Products through the Services. In certain circumstances, BuyGoods may require You to modify your Products prior to being approved or prohibit your Products from being sold via the Services, in BuyGoods's sole discretion.
3.2 All Products You register for sale via the Services, and the offering and sale thereof via the Services, comply with all of Your country's laws and all applicable U.S. federal and state laws and regulations. You are solely liable and responsible for all warnings, labeling, and regulatory compliance for the Products.
3.3 Your Products do not involve downloading software on the computer of a person or entity purchasing a Product (the "Customer") unless a purchase is completed or You provide the Customer a clear and conspicuous disclosure describing all of the software being downloaded, its functionality and You obtain express consent prior to any such downloads.
3.4 Without further conditions or limitations, You authorize BuyGoods to list any Product You register for sale via the Services in the online, searchable catalog of Products made available via the Services; and make it available for sale to Customers and/or for the Affiliates that Promote the Products made available via the Services.
3.5 You will provide valid email addresses to which Customers or BuyGoods can send inquiries and receive a reply by end of the following business day. Customers and BuyGoods must also be able to receive a non-automated response within one business day, when necessary.
3.6 You will notify BuyGoods of any regulatory or legal complaints, or threats of such complaints, that You receive in connection with or in relation to a Product within two business days of Your receipt of such complaint. You shall assist BuyGoods, at Your sole cost and expense, in taking any necessary or appropriate actions reasonably requested by BuyGoods to respond to and/or resolve such complaints.
3.7 If and to the extent You use third parties to provide and/or manufacture Products or Services, You and such third parties must be in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and terms of this Agreement, and You are responsible for all acts and omissions of such third party.
3.8 You will establish an appropriate return, replacement and/or cancellation policy for Your Products ("Return Policy"). Your Return Policy must fall within the range of "no refunds" to allowing refunds or replacements up to sixty (60) days after the date of purchase (i.e., a 30-day refund policy or a 45-day refund policy would each be acceptable, if appropriate).
3.9 You will ensure that the Return Policy is clearly and conspicuously posted for Customers to review prior to purchasing Your Products.
4.1 When Orders are placed on your website, you shall provide delivery dates (whether provided on the Site, in an Order confirmation, or elsewhere). These dates are estimates only and not a guarantee that the Products will be delivered by a given date.
4.2 You shall deliver tangible Products to the street address, and electronic Products to the customer's email address, provided when Customers place their orders through your Site.
4.3 All risk of loss for the Products shall pass from You to Customers upon delivery of the Products to the location or email address specified in Customers’ orders. For the avoidance of doubt, the delivery of downloaded Products occurs when the Products are downloaded. If a Customer refuses or fails to take delivery of the Products, all risk of loss for the Products will pass to Customer, and Customer shall be responsible for all costs incurred based on refusal or failure to take delivery.
If Your Products are provided with an option to automatically renew the Product license or subscription, and a Customer elects automatic renewal, each renewal term for the Products will be equal in duration to the initial term for such Products. At any time during a renewal term, the Customer may elect to not renew the Product license or subscription for the forthcoming renewal term, in which case You shall not provide such non-renewed Products after expiration of the then-current renewal term.
If You promote, market or otherwise advertise ("Promote" or a "Promotion") any Products which are registered for sale via the Services, either by You or by another BuyGoods Advertiser, whether via the Services or via any other online or offline channel or medium for the purpose of earning a percentage of the sale price of any Product sold as a result of such Promotion ("Commissions"), You agree, acknowledge, represent and warrant that:

6.9 All communications and/or representations made by You in connection with any Promotions and/or in relation to any Product will be accurate and contain all disclosures, warnings, labeling, regulatory labeling, and disclaimers necessary to prevent such Promotions from being false or deceptive. Such disclosures and disclaimers must be made in a clear and conspicuous manner, and will otherwise comply with Your country's laws and all U.S. federal and state laws, including U.S. Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") regulations, policies and guidelines governing advertising, disclosure and consumer protection, including the FTC's Endorsement Guidelines.
6.10 BuyGoods reserves the right but is not obligated to review Your Promotions. You agree that BuyGoods, in its sole discretion and at any time, may require changes to Product Promotion and delivery pages, Customer support or other items related to the content of Your Promotions.

You acknowledge and understand that BuyGoods does not verify statements, claims, incentives or Promotions made by Advertisers via the Services.
7.1 If You send, or cause to be sent any emails in connection with the direct or indirect Promotion or sale of any Product, then You agree, acknowledge, represent and warrant that all emails shall be in compliance with all laws and regulations regarding the use of electronic messages, including without limitation the Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act ("CAN-SPAM Act"), California Business & Professions Code § 17529.5, and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"). Information on the CAN-SPAM Act and COPPA can be found at https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/resources/can-spam-act-compliance-guide-business and https://www.ftc.gov/privacy/privacyinitiatives/childrens.html). You acknowledge that relevant laws include requirements that you maintain an effective “opt-out” program, accurately identify the sender of emails and be free of any deceptive or fraudulent headers, subject lines or content.
7.2 You shall not directly or indirectly exploit documented or undocumented security holes on any client or server machine, or obtain email addresses via automated means or send any email to any address which was obtained via automated means or the use of spyware, viruses, or other means of bypassing system security or invading consumer privacy.

Providing BuyGoods with Feedback is optional.

9.1.3 AS BETWEEN YOU AND BUYGOODS, THE SERVICES ARE DELIVERED "AS IS" AND YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES ARE AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE SITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. BuyGoods DOES NOT MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BuyGoods HEREBY DISCLAIMS, AND YOU HEREBY WAIVE, ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ANY WARRANTY THAT MAY ARISE BY USAGE OF TRADE, COURSE OF DEALING OR COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT. NEITHER BuyGoods NOR ITS RELATED COMPANIES ENDORSE OR ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCURACY OR RELIABILITY OF ANY INFORMATION, FACT OR OPINION PROVIDED ON OR THROUGH THE PRODUCTS AND/OR SERVICES.

10.2 NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF BuyGoods (INCLUDING ITS AFFILIATES) WITH RESPECT TO ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY REASON AND UPON ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF ACTIONS OR NUMBER OF LICENSED COPIES OF THE PRODUCTS (AND WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) SHALL NOT EXCEED, IN THE AGGREGATE, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00 USD). NO CAUSE OF ACTION WHICH ACCRUED MORE THAN ONE (1) YEAR PRIOR TO THE FILING OF A SUIT ALLEGING SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION MAY BE ASSERTED AGAINST BuyGoods OR ITS RELATED COMPANIES. THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY HEREIN IS A FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN AND REFLECTS A FAIR ALLOCATION OF RISK. THE SERVICES, OR INFORMATION OFFERED THROUGH THE SERVICES, WOULD NOT BE PROVIDED WITHOUT SUCH LIMITATIONS AND YOU AGREE THAT THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND DISCLAIMERS SPECIFIED HEREIN WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY EVEN IF FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN CATEGORIES OF DAMAGES, IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, YOU AGREE THAT THE LIABILITY OF BuyGoods SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY SUCH JURISDICTION.
10.3 You shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless BuyGoods and its related companies, and each of their officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives, licensees and employees (each, an "Indemnified Party"), from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, actions, lawsuits and other proceedings, judgments and awards, and costs and expenses (including, without limitation, costs of investigation, defense, court costs and reasonable attorneys' and consultancy fees), arising directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, out of: (a) any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by You; (b) Your use of the Services; (c) Your Products or Promotions (as defined below); and/or (d) Your negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct (each, a "Claim").
10.4 Upon receiving notice of a Claim for which BuyGoods is entitled to indemnification by You, BuyGoods shall provide You with written notification and the opportunity to assume sole control over the defense or settlement of the Claim and reasonable assistance to settle and/or defend the Claim at Your sole expense; provided, however, that (i) any settlement which would impose a non-monetary obligation on and/or admission or finding of liability or wrongdoing by BuyGoods will require BuyGoods' prior written consent; (ii) the failure to provide timely notice, control, or assistance shall not relieve You of Your indemnification obligations; and (iii) BuyGoods may have its own counsel present at and participating in all proceedings or negotiations relating to a Claim, at BuyGoods's own expense, unless You fail or refuse to secure legal counsel to defend any Claim in a timely manner, in which case You shall pay all expenses related to BuyGoods's use of such counsel.
10.5 In the event that BuyGoods incurs costs, attorneys' fees or other expenses responding to any complaint other than a Claim, in connection with or in relation to Your Products or Promotions, including copyright infringement complaints, BuyGoods reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to recover such costs and expenses by deducting a reasonable, commensurate amount from any monies owed to You by BuyGoods up to a maximum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per event. In the event that BuyGoods incurs any losses relating to Your violation of BuyGoods's Email/Text Message/Telemarketing policy, as set forth in Section 7, BuyGoods reserves the right, in its sole discretion, first to recover such losses by deducting a reasonable, commensurate amount from any monies owed to You by BuyGoods up to a maximum of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) per event. You understand and agree that the remedies set forth above are not exhaustive and that BuyGoods retains all rights to indemnification described herein. You authorize BuyGoods to make, and release BuyGoods from any liability in connection with, any such deductions.
11.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and BuyGoods's policies and procedures, BuyGoods shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Services in a manner that will not disrupt Your business. You acknowledge and agree that from time-to-time the Services may be inaccessible or inoperable for reasons including, without limitation: (i) equipment malfunctions; (ii) periodic maintenance procedures or repairs that BuyGoods may undertake from time to time; or (iii) causes beyond the reasonable control of BuyGoods or that are reasonably unforeseeable by BuyGoods, including, without limitation, interruption or failure of telecommunication or digital transmission links, hostile network attacks, network congestion or other failures. You acknowledge and agree that BuyGoods is not liable for these periodic interruptions in availability of the Services, whether the fault of BuyGoods or some third-party, and further acknowledge that BuyGoods does not guarantee access to the Services on a continuous and uninterrupted basis.
11.2 BuyGoods may decline, delist or halt Promotion of any Product from the Site, suspend funds, adjust Commissions based on performance, close an account, and/or suspend or terminate the Services at any time, in its sole discretion, without cause or notice to You or any penalty or liability for doing so.
11.3 BuyGoods, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate Your account(s), or retain any or all funds in Your BuyGoods account, if BuyGoods suspects or has reason to believe and/or if a person otherwise claims that You have violated the law or breached any term of this Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, and all other rights and remedies available to BuyGoods at law or in equity and notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, in the event You breach any term of this Agreement, or Your account becomes dormant as defined in our Payment Policy and/or has a negative balance, BuyGoods will have the right to immediately suspend or terminate Your Account and Your rights to access, use and/or otherwise participate in the Services, and to exhaust all rights and remedies available to it in order to recoup any amounts due and owing to BuyGoods. Upon such termination, You agree to immediately cease all use of the Services and BuyGoods intellectual property. Without limiting the foregoing, BuyGoods shall have the right to immediately terminate Your access and use of the Services, or any portion thereof, in the event of any conduct which BuyGoods, in its sole discretion, considers to be unacceptable.
11.4 BuyGoods, in its sole discretion, may keep an ongoing allowance reserve for your account. An allowance is a small portion of your earnings that will be held in reserve to cover any refunds that occur after you have received your portion of the sale price. The allowance amount is determined by the average refund rate of the offer you promote and is typically 10%, but could be as much as 100%. If you are promoting an offer with a higher refund rate, the allowance may increase to ensure that your account does not reach a negative balance. Allowances are held for 60 days, to cover the refund window offered by most product owners. The allowance amount will be released every 60 days, and will be included in your next payment cycle following the release date. In the event your account balance is negative, or the system detected significant fluctuation in your volume, the allowance may be held for a longer period of time, but never longer than 6 months. Please see our Payment Policy , which is incorporated by reference into this Agreement, for more information on payments, allowance reserves, and other issues related to payment.
11.5 Following suspension or termination of an account or retaining of funds pursuant to this Section 11, BuyGoods will review Your account in a manner determined by BuyGoods in its sole discretion. You agree to cooperate with this review if asked. If the review concludes that there is a reasonable basis to believe misconduct has occurred, You agree that BuyGoods may retain funds in Your BuyGoods account as liquidated damages and/or for the benefit of BuyGoods or third parties affected by the misconduct. You acknowledge and agree that such liquidated damages: (a) are not a penalty, and (b) are reasonable and not disproportionate to such presumed damages to BuyGoods.
11.6 BuyGoods may temporarily withhold any portion of the funds in Your BuyGoods account if BuyGoods, in its sole discretion, determines such action is necessary to secure payment for, performance of, and/or assurances regarding any liabilities, obligations, or indebtedness You may have incurred with BuyGoods or any other person.
11.7 This Clause 11.6 and the following provisions will survive any termination of the Agreement: Sections 1 (Scope), 8 (Feedback), 9 (Representations and Warranties; Disclaimer), 10 (Limitation of Liability; Indemnification), 15 (Notices), 16 (Governing Law), and 22 (General). In addition, any provisions which by their nature contemplate effectiveness beyond the termination of this Agreement shall survive any such termination. BuyGoods's remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive and are in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity.
11.8 Affiliates – The initial Payment
BuyGoods will withhold payment of any balance (regardless of the indicated Threshold) until the first commission for a client is more than 30 days old.
This requirement is in place to protect BuyGoods Affiliate program from fraudulent activity.
Your account will then generate payments automatically, in accordance with our Payment terms, beginning with the next scheduled pay period.
All refund and exchange requests for Your Products are managed by you. You agree to provide your customers with a 60 day refund policy.

Therefore, in addition to any other remedies that may be available at law, in equity, or otherwise, BuyGoods shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, specific performance, and/or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach or anticipated breach without the necessity of posting a bond or other security, even if otherwise normally required.
