4. Disclosures
We will always try to notify of changes to these terms when they happen. However, the terms of this agreement are subject to change from time to time without prior notice.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has endorsement rules in place for affiliate marketing. In short, they want you to disclose that you have a business relationship with us when you promote and post your link. You can read the full FTC rules about affiliate marketing here. For other jurisdictions throughout the world, you'll need to check with how this applies to you. CarbonOS Inc. cannot take responsibility for this in terms of tax implications and other financial related declarations you made need to make.
When posting or sharing your link, you should make it known to your readers and followers that you will receive compensation (and that they'll receive their side of the affiliate program as well) if they buy a product via your link. This declaration should be clear and conspicuous (and reiterated as needed). Again, you can read the FTC rules (and their quick FAQ) here.
5. Terminations
We can end this relationship at anytime, and so can you. We reserve the right to reverse affiliate payouts due to order cancellations, duplicate tracking, refunds, disputed charges, and program violations as outlined in these terms and conditions.
Hopefully we have demonstrated our obligations for you to become a highly prosperous tree planting affiliate.
