What does affiliate mean?

Affiliate marketing is based on the basic idea of a partnership with performance-related compensation. Every partner has the chance to extend and shape his own web-offer with participating in an affiliate program (= partner program). For example by successfully presenting eBlocker on your website.

Who can participate and how does it work?

You can participate in our eBlocker affiliate program if you are an entrepreneur with a valid VAT number, who is living in Europe or as a local resident outside of Europe. You need to have your own website or a customer base where you can send emails to. You can also participate even if you’re not a customer of eBlocker. The participation is very easy:

You apply for the affiliate program, place one of the offered eBlocker advertisements (e.g. banner or text link) on your website and thus establish a connection to our eBlocker website. After one click on the advert, the visitor will be directed from your website to our eBlocker website. Through the personal identification of the advert, we register exactly from where the customer has been send from, if the visitor orders an eBlocker product (hardware and/or software). We also offer a consideration time of 30 days which means: even if the customer doesn’t decide immediately to buy a product – but decides to order later, you still have the right to your premium – provided that the customer has visited your website first and then was redirected to our website.

How much can I earn?

We will reward you for the sales you provide in a calendar month. Generally we pay 10% of the net-shopping cart revenue as commission.

How does eBlocker know that the new customer has been send from my website?

It’s very simple: a personal identification is integrated in every advert that you place, for example, in a banner. Every customer that clicks on the banner, automatically saves the ID of this advert on his computer. Now when he visits our website, we register this ID and know from which websites he has been redirected from. This ID will be saved for 30 days by setting a cookie on the customer’s computer. Please note that purchases can only be registered properly, if the cookie-setting is activated on the purchaser’s computer.

What is a 30-day-cookie-period?

Cookies are small text files that are transferred to the visitor’s computer after e.g. clicking on a banner from a web browser. User-specific information – here personal identification – is saved in cookies (provided that the visitor has activated his cookies). If the customer orders a product in the following 30 days, the purchase will be shown in our affiliate system and the related commission is paid off after our confirmation.

How and when will I get paid?

All confirmed commissions are credited and monthly transferred to you starting from $50. Unless otherwise agreed, the settlement and payment of the remuneration shall be made within 45 days from starting from the end of the according calendar month. Payments are made within 45 days starting from the according on the first working day of the month. Separate payments in a calendar month are summed up. You have access to your personal user data, sales statistics and credit analysis with your personal password, at any time.

Which advertising materials are available?

We provide a variety of adverts and linking possibilities:

Banner – in various sizes

HTML-banner

Text links for email recommendations and newsletter

Our tip: If you have your own customer base, we would recommend using newsletters with integrated text links.

The Affiliate undertakes not to register or use any domains, apps or trademarks with the component “eBlocker” or with a similar designation and undertakes to delete any domains/trademarks registered in violation of the aforementioned regulations at our first request. Our further claims remain unaffected. 6. Keywords 6.1. If keywords and/or keywords are used in the context of the Affiliate’s performance, the following applies: We are entitled to provide the Affiliate with a positive list and/or a negative list of words. The Affiliate is obliged to use words from the positive list and to refrain from using words from the negative list. Unless agreed with us, no names or trademarks of our competitors may be used as keywords or keywords. We are entitled to communicate changes in positive or negative lists within the scope of our activities, which the affiliate must immediately implement and confirm the implementation to us. We take the legitimate interests of the affiliate into consideration and only communicate such changes if there is a factual, legal or advertising need. Furthermore, we are entitled to formulate positive lists in such a way that the use of deviating terms must be omitted. 6.2. We are liable to the Affiliate for terms on the positive list as long as they are used before the respective service is revoked. The Affiliate is liable to us for not taking any action using words from the negative list. 7. Remuneration 7.1. The Affiliate shall receive a commission of 10% of the net shopping basket turnover for the advertising and successful brokerage of transactions (e.g. orders), which is based on his brokerage. Net shopping cart turnover is the turnover generated by customers referred by the affiliate in our online shop (especially at www.eblocker.com). Revenue is deemed to have been generated when it has finally been credited to our accounts. Customers are mediated by the affiliate if they have reached our shop directly via the advertising measures carried out by the affiliate in accordance with the contract. The respective turnover always applies when viewed in isolation. No commission is owed for subsequent sales. 7.2. The commission is allocated to the affiliate whose measure last brought about the success (visit to our site). The assignment of visitors/revenues takes place via an ID in accordance with our technical specifications, which are provided to the affiliate. The affiliate is responsible for ensuring that this ID is correctly implemented by him or her and is not changed or impaired by the proper integration of our advertising media. If an assignment cannot be made or cannot be made with certainty due to inadequate technical implementation, no commission claim exists. 7.3.

Unless otherwise agreed, invoicing and payment of the remuneration shall take place within 45 days of the end of the respective calendar month to be invoiced. Payment shall be made if the total amount of commissions exceeds Euro 50.00. Total commissions lower than the above value will not be paid out and carried forward to the next settlement period. The affiliate receives a statement of commission-relevant sales. The affiliate has no right of access to personal data of the customers. 7.5. In the case of performance-related payments, which depend on eBlocker income or sales, a claim to compensation only arises when the payment on which the commission is based has finally been credited to the account of eBlocker. In the event of subsequent refunds of payments subject to commission, the commission attributable to the reimbursed amount is to be repaid. eBlocker is entitled to offset commissions to be reimbursed against current commission claims. 7.6. The accounting of performance-related remuneration is considered correct if the Affiliate does not object within one month from receipt of the accounting with factual reasons. 7.7. If circumstances arise which give rise to the factual suspicion that claims for remuneration due to misuse (including third parties where applicable), fraud (including third parties), solely serve to generate claims for remuneration measures (including third parties) without relevance to eBlocker’s success, such as automated click procedures, traffic allocation of irrelevant sources such as e.g. misleading landing pages or “Type-domains,” misleading or illegal measures like, e.g. Bots, Trojaner, etc. were caused, or not seriously meant purchase procedures; we are entitled to withhold the remuneration up to the final clarification of the circumstances. If it turns out that the facts of the case are incorrect, we are obliged to pay them out immediately. If it turns out that the suspicion applies, there is no right to compensation. In this case, the Affiliate undertakes to reimburse us for the costs of the check if the abusive measure is the Affiliate’s responsibility. 7.8. The Affiliate shall bear the costs incurred on its sites, such as the costs of integrating the advertising measures into its Internet pages, access to the Internet or for the transmission of data and any necessary licensing costs for the software itself. We are not obliged to reimburse costs or make available materials in excess of the remuneration agreed in each case. 7.9. The Affiliate is only entitled to set-off if his counterclaims are acknowledged by eBlocker or have become res judicata or if the claim originates from the same contractual relationship. The Affiliate is only entitled to exercise a right of retention insofar as his counterclaim is based on the same contractual relationship. 8. Term and termination 8.1. Unless otherwise agreed, the contract with the Affiliate is concluded for an indefinite period and can be duly terminated by both parties subject to a notice period of 2 weeks in each case. 8.2. This shall not affect the right of both parties to terminate the contract for cause. eBlocker is entitled to such a right of termination, especially in the event of serious or repeated violations of essential provisions of this contract by the Affiliate. 8.3. Commission and remuneration claims always end with the end of the contract. eBlocker does not owe any commission or remuneration for circumstances occurring after the end of the contract. Commission credits existing at the end of the contract are paid out to the affiliate, any negative balances are to be settled. 8.4. At the end of the contract, the Affiliate shall cease all advertising measures, remove the advertising measures from its Internet pages and return or delete any other content provided by eBlocker (e.g. banners). 9. Liability 9.1. We are liable for damages caused by us, our legal representatives or vicarious agents through gross negligence or with intent and for the violation of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations). Liability for slight and simple negligence is excluded, for whatever legal reason. 9.2.

In the case of a non-grossly negligent breach of a cardinal obligation, we shall furthermore only be liable up to the amount of the typically foreseeable damage at the time the contract was concluded, at most, however, on the average performance-related remuneration of the Affiliate for one calendar month. 9.4. The above limitations of liability shall not affect liability for damage to body, life or health, any guarantees assumed and liability under the Product Liability Act. 9.5. Insofar as our liability is limited or excluded; this shall also apply in favor of our legal representatives, executive bodies and employees and accordingly also for claims for reimbursement of expenses. 10. Final clauses 10.1. All legal relationships between us and the Affiliate in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. This also applies if the contractual service is provided outside Germany. 10.2. The Affiliate may transfer rights and obligations arising from or in connection with the Agreement to third parties only with our consent. 10.3. Any invalidity of individual provisions of these terms and conditions shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. 10.4. If the Affiliate is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, or if the Affiliate has no general place of jurisdiction within the Federal Republic of Germany, the place of performance and jurisdiction shall be Hamburg. 11. Binding German version The interpretation of this Affiliate Terms of Use and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be based on the German version of this Affiliate Terms of Use.
