I. General

By signing up to be an affiliate in the Larvato Affiliate Program (“Program”) you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (“Terms”). Please ensure that you read them carefully before signing up. These Terms are a legal agreement (“Agreement”) between Larvato Pty Ltd. with postal address at PO Box 174 Earlville, QLD 4870 Australia (“Larvato”, “we”, “us”) and You (“Affiliate”, “you”).

The term Affiliate does not imply any formal association with Larvato. By this Agreement, the Affiliate is granted a non-exclusive, revocable right to market and advertise Larvato (“Service”) and the Program.

We will reward Affiliates for expanding our customer base and acquiring for us new customers through Affiliates’ own marketing efforts. We will pay to Affiliates commissions on sales of the Service to customers who were referred to us directly by Affiliates pursuant to the terms and conditions of this document(“Commission”).

II. Participation in Program

1. To enroll in the Program, the Affiliate must fill out the registration form with current, complete, and accurate information and personal data. . If the form is filled out correctly and approved after review, an account within the Affiliate Panel is created for the Affiliate and Affiliate becomes a participant of the Program. Providing false information in the registration form will result in immediate termination from the Program and forfeiture of all outstanding Commissions.

4. The sale of the Service that forms the basis for Commission calculation is tracked through the use of cookies or the assignment of a unique promo code. In some cases, it will not be possible to track traffic from the Affiliate’s website to the Larvato website, because the visitor is using cookie-blocking software.

V. Affiliate Commissions

1. The Affiliate will receive a Commission for each complete purchase of the Service made in the Agreement term by the customer referred by the Affiliate. This means that the Affiliate will receive the Commission upon accepted payment if the customer was referred through the Affiliate’s referral link and/or assigned unique promo code and the customer’s software allowed Larvato to save such a referral cookie. The Affiliate is not entitled to the Commission for the purchases of the Service through their own referral link – this means that the Affiliate will not receive the Commission for the purchase of the Service made by the Affiliate himself/herself, their corporation, employer or the like or any other entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, the Affiliate. This includes also any purchases made not under Affiliate’s name but with the use of Affiliate’s payment medium (e.g. credit card, check, bank account, PayPal account).
2. The above applies to all the Commission for purchases made during the term of Affiliate’s employment contract (or any other contract being the basis of employment), if any, and within 3 months after its expiration or termination, concluded with Larvato or any other entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Larvato, or during the term when Affiliate is an officer, director or representative, if relevant, of Larvato or any other entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with Larvato and within 3 months after this term.
3. Where the customer referred by the Affiliate has paid for the Service in other currency than the one used for settlement purposes with the Affiliate, we will convert and credit the associated Commission in the relevant currency using the index of European Central Bank from the time of payment.
4. A summary of purchases of the Service and statement of referral Commission is available to the Affiliate by logging into their Affiliate account.
5. Larvato reserves the right to grant discount for the Service to chosen customers. Commissions reflect a percentage, not a particular amount, therefore it is possible that the Commission on the sale of the same Service may be different every month.
6. Commissions are calculated on the last day of each month and are paid out only when the accrued Commissions exceed USD 100 (depending on the Affiliate’s domicile/residence). If on the last day of the month the balance owing in the account is less than the aforesaid limit, the Commission will be accumulated in the account. The Commission are credited to your Affiliate account once the customer pays for the Service. Commissions are only earned if a customer makes a payment in full.
7. Accrued Commissions are paid in the form of PayPal account, ACH, Eurotransfer or via other payment method if agreed individually with Larvato. 
8. Based on internal risk analysis, Larvato reserves the right to withhold first time payments and any other payments originating from an account where there is suspected fraud activity – for a period of up to 3 months and in cases the Affiliate violates any of the provisions of these Terms – all Commissions accrued and not paid out for as long as the Affiliate is in breach. Larvato reserves also the right to disqualify Commissions earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly aggressive, questionable sales or marketing methods.
9. To ensure proper Commission payment, the Affiliate is solely responsible for providing and maintaining accurate contact details including address, as well as payment information associated with the Affiliate’s account. If you are a US taxpayer, you should include without limitation a valid tax identification number and Form W-9. If you are a non-US taxpayer, you should provide Larvato without limitation with either a signed certification that you do not have US Activities, or a completed Form W-8 or other form, which may require a valid US tax identification number, as required by the US tax authorities. No Commission payment shall be made unless the Affiliate provides Larvato with accurate and complete contact and tax details.
10. The Affiliate acknowledges and agrees that all the sums of Commissions payable under the Program are calculated jointly for the purpose of fulfillment of tax obligations.
11. Larvato reserves the right to change the Commission rate and Service prices at any time. Any Commissions accrued after such a change will be at the new rate.

VI. Refunds/Chargebacks/Fraud

1. Any customer refunds, reversals or credit card chargebacks owed by Larvato to the referred customer will result in the appropriate Commission amount being deducted from the Affiliate’s account balance (“Deducted Commission”). If the Commission from that sale has already been paid to the Affiliate, the amount will be deducted from future payments of the Commissions. If the Commission owed to the Affiliate in the next month is not sufficient to satisfy the Deducted Commission, Larvato may invoice the Affiliate for the payment of the remaining debt immediately and the Affiliate is obligated to pay it within the payment date provided in the invoice.
2. Larvato reserves the right to terminate the Agreement with immediate effect in the event of not receiving the remaining debt within the payment date provided in the invoice referred to in s. 1 above.
3. Any fraudulent activity that can be traced directly to the Affiliate’s actions will cause immediate termination and forfeiture of any Commission earned.
4. If an account of customer referred by Affiliate is terminated due to practices or actions that Larvato considers to be abusive, prohibited or that violate Larvato Terms of Service in other ways, Larvato reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to withhold or forfeit one or all Commissions earned (regardless of whether paid or outstanding) for referring the terminated customer. If the number of terminated customer accounts referred by Affiliate is abnormal or Larvato may reasonably suspect that it is a part of fraudulent activity, Larvato shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to forfeit not only Commissions earned for referring terminated customers, but all Commissions earned (regardless of whether paid or outstanding) by Affiliate during the term of Agreement. As regards settlement rules section 1 and 2 above shall apply accordingly, i.e. Larvato is entitled in particular to deduct relevant amounts of forfeited Commissions from future payments due to Affiliate and if the Commission owed in the next month is not sufficient, Larvato may invoice the Affiliate for payment of remaining debt.

VII. Limitation of liability

1. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Larvato, its employees, directors, officers or representatives shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, special or consequential damage or loss (even if Larvato has been advised of the possibility of such damage), howsoever caused and irrespective of the nature of the cause of action, demand or claim by the Affiliate. Larvato’s entire liability, regardless of the form and cause of action, in any event is limited to the aggregate amount paid by Larvato to the Affiliate in one month immediately preceding the date the Affiliate notifies Larvato of such a claim, or in the aggregate, in respect of all claims under or related to the Program.

4. Larvato shall not be responsible if a referred sale goes unregistered for any reason.
5. Larvato shall not be responsible for any intermediary charges, transaction fees and other costs or expenses accrued by the Affiliate in connection with the Program.
6.

We reserve the right to refuse to undertake additional actions regarding payment, in particular to refuse for example to issue another check, or using another PayPal account, if you submit a relevant request after 12 months as of making payment, or if you failed to inform us about problems with payment within the above period, or if we have reasonable grounds to suspect a fraudulent activity.
