After receiving your application, we will review your website and notify you of your acceptance or rejection into our Program. Please allow up one week for your application to be reviewed. We reserve the right to reject any application, however we encourage you to contact us if you feel we have made an incorrect decision. Including all of the websites that you use in your profile will help us make a better decision.

Your participating website(s) may not: 

1. Infringe on our or any anyone else's intellectual property, publicity, privacy or other rights. 
2. Violate any law, rule or regulation. 
3. Contain any content that is threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, harmful to minors, or contains nudity, pornography or sexually explicit materials. 
4. Contain any viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots, or other computer programming routines that are intended to damage, interfere with, surreptitiously intercept or expropriate any system, data, or personal information. 
5. Contain software or use technology that attempts to intercept, divert or redirect Internet traffic to or from any other website, or that potentially enables the diversion of affiliate commissions from another website.

Upon acceptance into the Program, links will be made available to you through the affiliate interface. Your acceptance in our program means you agree to and abide by the following. 

1. You will only use linking code obtained from the affiliate interface without manipulation. 
2. All domains that use your affiliate link must be listed in your affiliate profile. 
3. Your Website will not in any way copy, resemble, or mirror the look and feel of our Website. You will also not use any means to create the impression that your Website is our Website or any part of our Website including, without limitation, framing of our Website in any manner. 
4. You may not engage in cookie stuffing or include pop-ups, false or misleading links on your website. In addition, wherever possible, you will not attempt to mask the referring URL information (i.e. the page from where the click is originating). 
5. Using redirects to bounce a click off of a domain from which the click did not originate in order to give the appearance that it came from that domain is prohibited. 

If you are found redirecting links to hide or manipulate their original source, your current and past commissions will be voided or your commission level will be set to 0%. This does not include using "out" redirects from the same domain where the affiliate link is placed.

If you are enrolled in our Program and your Website promotes coupon codes, you must adhere to our Coupon Guidelines as follows: 

1. You may ONLY advertise coupon codes that are provided to you through the affiliate program or network or that are displayed on our website(s). 
2. Posting any information about how to work around the requirements of a coupon/promotion (ie first time customers only) will result in removal from the program. 
3. Coupons must be displayed in their entirety with the full offer, valid expiration date and code. 
4. You may NOT use any technology that covers up the coupon code and generates the affiliate click by revealing the code(s). 
5. You may NOT advertise coupon codes obtained from our non-affiliate advertising, customer e-mails, paid search, or any other campaign. 
6. You may NOT give the appearance that any ongoing offer requires clicking from your website in order to redeem. For example, if all items on the site have free shipping over $100, you may not turn this into an offer that infers that the customer must click from your site to get this deal.

You shall not create, publish, distribute, or print any written material that makes reference to our Program without submitting that material to us. If you intend to promote our Program via e-mail campaigns, you must adhere to the following: 

1. Abide by the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (Public Law No. 108-187) with respect to our Program. 
2. E-mail must be sent on your behalf and must not imply that the e-mail is being sent on behalf of ShoeShoe. 
3. E-mails must first be submitted to us for approval prior to being sent or we must be sent a copy of the e-mail.

Promotion on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms is permitted following these general guidelines: 

1. You ARE allowed to promote offers to your own lists; more specifically, you're welcome to use your affiliate links on your own Facebook, Twitter, etc. pages. For example: You may post, "25% off sale at ShoeShoe through Wednesday with code ShoeShoe25." 
2. You ARE PROHIBITED from posting your affiliate links on ShoeShoe's Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc. company pages in an attempt to turn those links into affiliate sales.

We value open communication with our affiliates. However, we reserve the right to reverse orders due to order cancellations, duplicate tracking, returns, disputed charges, and program violations as outlined in these terms and conditions. Additionally, if we ask you for clarification or more information on any orders or clicks that we suspect may be in violation of our terms and conditions, we expect that you will respond in a timely and honest manner. Below are violations of our communications policy. 

1. You are not forthcoming, intentionally vague or are found to be lying. 
2. You are not responsive within a reasonable time period and after multiple attempts to contact with information listed in your network profile. 
3. You cannot substantiate or validate the source of your traffic to our program with clear and demonstrable proof. 

If any of the above apply, then we reserve the absolute right to reverse orders, set your commission to 0% or suspend you from the program for the period or orders in question. We know that many violations are a result of automated processes; however it is incumbent upon each affiliate to ensure that it has the appropriate checks and balances in place to pro-actively address these issues and adhere to our program rules.

You shall include a disclosure statement within any and all pages/posts where affiliate links for our affiliate program are posted as an endorsement or review, and where it is not clear that the link is a paid advertisement. This disclosure statement should be clear and concise, stating that we are compensating you for your review or endorsement. If you received the product for free from us or from the affiliate management team for review, this also must be clearly stated in your disclosure.

We may revise and update these Terms & Conditions from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them. You agree that it is your responsibility to monitor changes to our site.
