1. TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT

The term of this Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your Affiliate application and will end when terminated by either party. Either the Affiliate or Depositit may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice of termination. You are only eligible to earn referral fees on sales occurring during the term. Depositit reserves the right to deny any Affiliate application.

2. MODIFICATION

We may modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, at any time and in our sole discretion, by posting a change notice or a new agreement on this site. Modifications may include, for example, changes in the scope of available referral fees, fee schedules, payment procedures and Program rules. IF ANY MODIFICATION IS UNACCEPTABLE TO YOU, YOUR ONLY RECOURSE IS TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT. YOUR CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM FOLLOWING OUR POSTING OF A CHANGE NOTICE OR NEW AGREEMENT ON OUR SITE WILL CONSTITUTE BINDING ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGE.

3. RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES

Depositit and the Affiliate acknowledge that the relationship arising from this Agreement is not an agency, joint venture, partnership, employment relationship or franchise. Nothing in this Agreement shall cause employees or agents of either party to be deemed employees or agents of the other. Each party retains full responsibility for the supervision and control of its own employees and/or agents.

4. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY

Each party's liability is limited to the commission paid by Depositit to the Affiliate. Each party shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other Party and its directors, officers, employees, agents, successors, assigns and their respective heirs and legal representatives from any and all claims or demands whatsoever that may be made.

5. SOFTWARE

All users wishing to use the Service must install the proprietary Depositit Backup Software ("the Software"). There is no licence fee charged on using the Software, which can be distributed freely by the Affiliate solely for the purposes of this Agreement via the Depositit website or CD Rom. The affiliate shall not without Depositit's prior written consent (other than for the purposes of this Agreement or to the strict extent that such act cannot be restricted by law) modify, merge or combine the whole or any part of the Software with any other software, assign, transfer, distribute, sell, lease, rent, sub-licence, charge or otherwise deal or encumber the Software, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the whole or any party of the software.

*Commission awarded against customers paying monthly will be paid out at the end of the year, once the full annual amount has been collected.

9. COMMISSION ELIGIBILITY

Referrers are not eligible to earn commission until they have referred at least two (2) or more customers. In addition the minimum commission payment that will be paid by Depositit is £100 excluding vat. If your commissions are less than this amount we will carry it over to the next payment period for a maximum of 6 payment periods (12 months). If the minimum requirements have still not been met after 12 months it will be cancelled.

If a customer cancels their account within the 30-day warranty period, no commissions will be paid.

If a customer cancels their account at the end of year 1, this same customer cannot be 'referred' again the following year. Referrers or customers of referrers found to be terminating their Depositit accounts at the end of year one and then re-subscribing for a new account (within 1 year) will not be eligible for any commission. Any referrers recognised to be doing this will have their agreement immediately terminated.

Please note that Depositit will not tolerate any referrers that send traffic directly from search engines to our website using any keywords directly related to Depositit (i.e Depositit, Depositit online backup, Depositit offsite backup, Depositit automatic backup etc). Any referrers found doing this will be immediately removed from our systems and no commission will be payable against any sales.

10. PAYMENT

Commissions will be paid every 2 months, in February, April, June, August, October and December.

Payments will be made as close to the beginning of the month as possible using the PayPal service.

UK referrers who are V.A.T registered will be required to provide a VAT invoice prior to receiving payment.

If a customer receives a refund for a product after the commission was credited and/or paid, Depositit reserves the right to subtract the commission amount from the referrers commission that month or in future months or if no further sales are being made to request the commission amount is paid back within 30 days.

11. REPORTING

In the event of several Affiliates reporting the same User in the same month, Depositit shall select the Affiliate to receive the commission on the basis of the information available to it. Depositit's decision is final.

Responsibility for your website

You have sole responsibility for the development, operation, and maintenance of your site and for all materials that appear on your site. Depositit does not assume any liability for these matters. Furthermore, you will indemnify and hold us harmless from all claims, damages and expenses (including without limitation, attorney's fees) relating to the development, operation, maintenance and contents of your site.

12. GENERAL

Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately by notice in writing if the other party becomes or is deemed insolvent, ceases to trade or has a liquidator, receiver, manager, administrator or administrative receiver or similar office appointed in respect of the whole or part of its business or enters into any arrangement or composition with its creditors or is wound up otherwise than for the purpose of a solvent amalgamation or reconstruction where the resulting entity assumed all of its obligations, or is unable to pay its debts as they fall due within the meaning of Section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986, or is made bankrupt, or undergoes a similar or analogous event in any jurisdiction.

Neither party shall be liable for any breach of this Agreement directly or indirectly caused by circumstances beyond the reasonable control of that party and which prevent that party from performing its obligations to the other.

The Affiliate shall not assign, transfer, charge or otherwise deal in its rights or obligations under this Agreement (or purport to do so) without Depositit's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as creating a right which is enforceable by any person who is not a party to this Agreement.

This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement between the parties in relation to its subject matter and supersedes all previous contracts or arrangements for any kind between the parties relating to its subject matter.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England. The English Courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction to determine any disputes which may arise out of, under or in connection with this Agreement.
