Agreement contains the complete terms and conditions that
apply to an individual's or entity's participation in the

used in this Agreement, "we" means Homeopathykits.com, "you"
means the applicant, and "product" means any item offered
for sale on the HomeopathyWorld.com site. "Site"
means a World Wide Web site and, depending on the context,
refers either to the HomeopathyWorld.com site or to the site
that you will link to our site.
1.
Enrollment in the Program
To begin the enrollment process, you will submit a complete
Program application via e-mail. We will evaluate your application
in good faith and will notify you of your acceptance or rejection.
We may reject your application if we determine (in our sole
discretion) that your site is unsuitable for the Program.

religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or

rights or violate any local, state, federal , national or
other law or regulation contain any libelous, defamatory or
disparaging materials contain little or no original content.
If we reject your application, you are welcome to reapply
to the Program at any time providing you make change .
2.
Promotion of our Affiliate Relationship
As an affiliate site, we will make available to you a variety
of graphic and textual links (each of these links sometimes
being referred to herein as “Links” or, individually,
as a “Link”) which, subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, you may display as often and in as many areas on your
site as you desire. The Links will serve to identify your
site as a member of the Affiliate Program and will establish
a link from your site to ours. The Links must connect to the
shop page of our site. Once you have been notified that your
site has been accepted into the program we will provide you
with a specific URL e-mail that will give you instructions
on how to set up special links between your site and ours.
You may provide on your site one or more of our logos, text
links and banners which you select from our HomeopathyWorld.com
Affiliate library. You may not alter banners, logos, or other
content available without written permission from HomeopathyWorld.com.
Additional brands and pricing issues may be added from time
to time. Additionally, new standards will be on our web site
from time to time. It is your responsibility to ensure that
all such changes are appropriately adhered to.
3.
Order Processing
We will process product orders placed by customers who follow
Links from your site. We reserve the right to reject orders
that do not comply with any requirements that we periodically
may establish. We will be responsible for all aspects of order
processing and fulfillment. We will track sales made to customers
who purchase products using authorized Links from your site
to our site and will provide you reports summarizing this
sales activity. If our home page changes and you have Links
that direct visitors to these pages, we will redirect your
visitors to an appropriate page automatically.
4.
Fee schedule and payment
We will pay you 12% on the sales from our line of products.
Sales are defined as product sales not including any sales
tax, VAT, or shipping charges. At present we do not charge
shipping and your commission will be based on the gross sales
price. The only exception will be orders liable to VAT in
the EU in which case commission will be based on net sales.
If the customer returns a Product that generated a referral
fee, we will deduct the corresponding referral fee from your
next payment. We will pay you quarterly. All checks will be
mailed by last business day of the month following the quarter
in which the fees were generated. Payments will be made in
U.S. Dollars, Euros, or UK Pounds as chosen by upi on your
application form. All we ask is that our HomeopathyWorld.com
affiliates only need to reach a minimum level of $25 (or equivalant)
in commission before they are paid out. We want to reward
you for your efforts and appreciate your commitment to the
program. All sales are cumulative so all sales are carried
to the next quarter until you reach $25 in commissions. You
should have no problem maximizing your payout!
You may purchase products of your choice by following the
link from your site to our shop page. You may not: (a) directly
or indirectly offer any person or entity any consideration
or incentive (including, without limitation, payment of money
(including any rebate), or granting of any discount or other
benefit) for using Special Links on your site to access our
site (e.g., by implementing any "rewards" program
for persons or entities who use Special Links on your site
to access our site); or (b) post any Special Links on any
Web site or other platform that is accessible through any
Internet Access Appliance. If we determine, in our sole discretion,
that you have offered any person or entity any such consideration
or incentive, or posted Special Links on any such Web site
or platform, we may (without limiting any other rights or
remedies available to us) withhold any referral fees otherwise
payable to you under this Agreement and/or terminate this
Agreement.
5.
Policies and Pricing
Customers who buy products through this Program will be deemed
to be customers of HomeopathyWorld.com Accordingly, all HomeopathyWorld.com
rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer
orders, customer service, marketing, promotions, and product
sales will apply to those customers. We may change our policies
and operating procedures at any time. For example, we will
determine the prices to be charged for products sold under
this Program in accordance with our own pricing policies.
Product prices and availability may vary from time to time.
Because price changes may affect products that you already
have listed on your site, you should not include price information
in your product descriptions. We will use commercially reasonable
efforts to present accurate information, but we cannot guarantee
the availability or price of any particular product.
6.
Identifying Yourself as an Associate
We will make available to you a small graphic image that identifies
your site as a Program participant. You must display this

press release with respect to this Agreement or your participation

be given or withheld in our sole discretion. In addition,
you may not in any manner misrepresent or embellish the relationship
between us and you, or express or imply any relationship or
affiliation between us and you or any other person or entity
except as expressly permitted by this Agreement (including
by expressing or implying that HomeopathyWorld.com supports,
sponsors, endorses or contributes money to any charity or
other cause).
