REGENERATION BIOLOGY AFFILIATE PROGRAM AGREEMENT




REGENERATION BIOLOGY AFFILIATE PROGRAM AGREEMENT

This Regeneration Biology Affiliate Program Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Regeneration Biology, LLC hereinafter referred to as “Regeneration Biology,” “we” or “our” and you as the applicant. As used in this Agreement, the applicant (whether an individual or an entity) will be referenced as “Affiliate,” “you,” or “your.” The term “site” or “website” applies to a World Wide Web site whether accessible to the public in general or some smaller group via an intranet.

This Agreement contains the complete terms and conditions that apply to your participation in the Regeneration Biology Affiliate Program (the “Program”)

Your participation in the Program may also require your consent to additional terms that are specific to the Third-Party Affiliate Platform (defined below) you are joining. These additional terms are available for your review on your applicable third-party network’s website and will be referred to in this Agreement as “Third Party Affiliate Platform Terms.”

Enrollment in the Program

If Affiliate does not have a current account with an affiliate network, to begin the enrollment process Affiliate must submit a completed Affiliate Application with up-to-date and accurate contact information. Regeneration Biology will evaluate Affiliate’s application in good faith and will notify Affiliate of Regeneration Biology’s approval or rejection. Affiliate’s application may be rejected if Regeneration Biology determines (in its sole discretion) that Affiliate’s site is unsuitable for the Program. Unsuitable websites include, but are not limited to, those that:

Participation in the Program

If Affiliate’s application is approved by Regeneration Biology, Affiliate agrees to provide Regeneration Biology with additional and updated information as it pertains to this Agreement. Additional and updated information shall include, without limitation, contact information, a change in Affiliate site ownership, a change in URL address, or a change in Affiliate Website Type (as defined in the Third-Party Affiliate Platform Terms). Affiliate agrees to continue to provide Regeneration Biology with updated information so that all such information remains current.  Subject to approval by Regeneration Biology, Affiliate may employ additional URLs under this Agreement. If it is discovered that Affiliate has employed additional URLs without Regeneration Biology’s prior approval, Affiliate may be subject to penalties, including but not limited to, account suspension or termination from the Regeneration Biology Program.

Order Tracking and Processing

Your affiliate platform (“Third Party Affiliate Platform”) will track all transactions made by customers who follow special links from Affiliate’s site to Regeneration Biology’s site. Reports summarizing transactions will be available through your Third-Party Affiliate Platform.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, browser transactions (meaning transactions that are completed after a browser tracking cookie is dropped) will not be tracked, and Affiliate will not receive adjustments to compensate for such untracked browser transactions.

To enable accurate tracking, reporting, and commission accrual, you must ensure that the special links between your site and the Regeneration Biology site are properly formatted. When customers come to Regeneration Biology’s site via Affiliate links, the affiliate network web server sends a client-side text string (cookie) containing your unique affiliate code to their computers. The network’s system then uses those strings to identify your site at the point of purchase or sale.

Regeneration Biology is not responsible for Third Party Affiliate Platform providers, Regeneration Biology or Regeneration Biology’s inability to track certain transactions due to privacy related browser and consumer device technology updates.  

Regeneration Biology is responsible for all aspects of order processing. Along with providing customer service, Regeneration Biology will handle all transaction logistics including payments, cancellations, and shipping. Regeneration Biology reserves the right to cancel orders that do not comply with any requirements Regeneration Biology establishes. Regeneration Biology may modify its order requirements at any time.

Qualifying Sales

For a sale to qualify for a commission, the customer must do the following: follow a link (in the format available through the Third-Party Affiliate Platform and specified by Regeneration Biology) from Affiliate’s site to Regeneration Biology’s site; purchase products from Regeneration Biology ’s site; accept delivery of the products at the shipping destination; and remit full payment to the applicable merchant. A sale that involves completion of all these steps shall be known as a “valid sale.” Regeneration Biology follows the last click model, meaning the last affiliate link the customer visits before completing their purchase shall receive credit for the valid sale. Transactions made by existing Regeneration Biology customers are subject to review and may not constitute a valid sale. Purchases of gift cards, or their equivalent, do not qualify as a valid sale. Regeneration Biology reserves the right to reject any sale that does not comply with these or other requirements that Regeneration Biology periodically establishes. Affiliate’s site will be credited for every valid sale including repeat purchases or sales that occur from your site within the action referral period stated in the Third-Party Affiliate Platform Terms. Affiliate will not be paid a commission for sales that, for any reason, are not completed due to cancellations or chargebacks, subsequently determined to be fraud, or refunded to customers, or that cannot be fulfilled for any other reason such sales will be known as “invalid sales”.

Prohibition against Spyware and other Parasites

Regeneration Biology prohibits Affiliate traffic generation methods which rely on software, toolbars, or browser helper objects also known as BHOs to initiate a forced click or automatic/stuffed cookie drop. Affiliate may not use spyware or parasitic software nor have or maintain a relationship, formal or informal, with any provider of spyware or parasitic software (as judged by any interference with the operation by design of Regeneration Biology and/or partner websites in Regeneration Biology’s sole discretion). Regeneration Biology encourages all Affiliates to report suspicions of such relationships to Regeneration Biology.


Coupon Policy and Prohibitions

Affiliate may only publish official Regeneration Biology discount codes on Affiliate’s site that Regeneration Biology may send as part of the Affiliate Program. Affiliate may not publish misleading or false information about Regeneration Biology.com discount codes or promotional offers. Affiliate may not publish discount codes that are not directly provided by Regeneration Biology to Affiliate. Misleading information includes but is not limited to the following: posting a discount code with the wrong corresponding description of the discount, posting an expired discount code, and directing visitors to click a link to receive a discount automatically (i.e., “Click here for 5% off”). Affiliate is responsible for all content on Affiliate’s site including but not limited to third party posts, advertisements, and comments.

Other Prohibitions

Affiliate may not “mask” or “redirect” any domain name/URL to Regeneration Biology.com, “frame” any portion of Regeneration Biology.com on its own site, copy and insert any portion of the content located at Regeneration Biology.com into any other website, or in any other way infringe upon our copyrighted material. You may not use such terms as “cheapest” or “lowest,” or any other superlatives suggesting unverified, unsubstantiated claims. False or misleading statements or advertisements about Regeneration Biology shall not be used when referencing the Regeneration Biology name, or using the Regeneration Biology name, logo, or registered trademarks. Affiliate shall not disparage Regeneration Biology, that means Affiliate shall not make any negative statement or inference, whether written or oral, to a third-party regarding Regeneration Biology or the Program.  

Confirmation of Sales

For all valid sales made by you during the action referral period, you will receive a variable commission. The commission structure can be found through your Third-Party Affiliate Platform and is subject to change from time to time. Commission shall be earned only on the subtotal of a valid sale. The subtotal of a valid sale is the order total less shipping/delivery fees, service fees, and any promotional discounts. If a sale is rejected (because the customer’s credit card is declined or the products are no longer available, or for any other reason), or is otherwise determined to be an invalid sale, you will not receive a commission.

Monthly Payments

Affiliate will receive a monthly commission payment for all valid sales that have been confirmed during the previous month. Payment to Affiliate shall be processed according to the payment terms set forth in your applicable Third-Party Affiliate Platform Terms. The monthly payment calendar is based on the date we confirm that the sale was valid, not the actual sale date. More details regarding payments are available through your Third-Party Affiliate Platform.

Customers who buy or sell products through this Program will be deemed to be customers of Regeneration Biology. Accordingly, all Regeneration Biology rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales will apply.

Email Marketing Policy

Such penalties may include but are not limited to the following: suspension of Affiliate account from Program; termination of Affiliate account from Program; reversal of payments to Affiliate; and public notification of Affiliate’s suspected violation. Reversals of an accepted sale may occur should Regeneration Biology find that Affiliate has violated provisions at the time of the sale for which a commission is earned and may take place during the pay period in which the commission is posted or later should a violation be found after a commission has been posted.

Term and Termination of the Agreement

The term of this Agreement will begin upon Regeneration Biology ’s approval of Affiliate’s Application and shall continue indefinitely unless terminated by either party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Either Affiliate or Regeneration Biology may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon 7 days’ written notice of termination.

Affiliate is eligible to earn commissions only on product sales that occur during the term, and commission earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the corresponding orders are not cancelled or returned and the commission is otherwise due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. To ensure that Affiliate is paid the correct amount of commission due Regeneration Biology may withhold Affiliate’s final payment for a reasonable time.

Force Majeure

Regeneration Biology shall not be responsible for any delay in performance or failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement where such delay or failure is caused by acts of God, strikes, labor disputes, extreme or unusual weather epidemic, pandemic, government action (including but not limited to local, state or federal administrative or executive order or pronouncement), declarations of national emergency, crisis or other forces over which Regeneration Biology has no control (“Force Majeure”). 

Modification

Modifications may include, for example, changes in the scope of available referral fees, referral fee schedules, payment procedures, and Program rules. IF ANY MODIFICATION IS UNACCEPTABLE TO AFFILIATE, AFFILIATE’S ONLY RECOURSE IS TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT BY ALLOWING THE AGREEMENT TO EXPIRE, PROVIDING REGENERATION BIOLOGY WITH WRITTEN NOTICE OF TERMINATION, AND/OR REJECTING THE NEW PROGRAM TERM OFFERED. AFFILIATE’S CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM BY CLICKING TO ACCEPT THE NEW TERMS WILL CONSITUTE BINDING ACCEPTANCE OF THE CHANGE.

Relationship of Parties

Affiliate and Regeneration Biology are independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement will create any partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, sales representatives, or employment relationship between Affiliate and Regeneration Biology. Affiliate will have no authority to make or accept any offers or representations on Regeneration Biology’s behalf. Affiliate may not make any statement, whether on Affiliate’s site or otherwise, that would reasonably contradict anything in this section.

Limitation of Liability

REGENERATION BIOLOGY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (OR ANY LOSS OF REVENUE, PROFITS, OR DATA) ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROGRAM, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Affiliate agrees to indemnify, defend and forever hold Regeneration Biology and its parents, affiliates, subsidiaries or entities under common ownership or control and all of its respective present and former officers, members, shareholders, directors, employees, representatives, attorneys, insurers and agents, and their successors, heirs and assigns (each, in such capacity, an “Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), harmless from and against any and all third-party losses, liabilities, claims, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, fines, forfeitures, outside attorneys’ fees, disbursements and administrative or court costs) arising directly or indirectly out of or relating to (1) a breach by Affiliate of this Agreement or of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein or (2) Affiliate’s site, including but not limited to any claim of trademark or copyright infringement, libel, defamation, breach of confidentiality, false or deceptive advertising or sales practices, deceptive use of URL names, cybersquatting/domain name issues, consumer fraud, injury, damage or harm of any kind to any person or entity).

Confidentiality and Required Disclosure

You agree not to disclose Regeneration Biology’s Confidential Information without our prior written permission. “Regeneration Biology’s Confidential Information” includes: (a) all trade secrets, proprietary data and other information (whether written or oral) about its business operations, employees, contractors, and third-party clients (b) all Regeneration Biology software, technology and documentation relating to the Program; (c) sales information or other statistics relating to the Program; and (c) any other information made available by Regeneration Biology that is designated confidential or would normally be considered confidential given the nature of the information or  the circumstances under which it was provided.

 Disclaimers

REGENARION BIOLOGY MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE PROGRAM OR ANY PRODUCTS SOLD THROUGH THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF A COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, DEALING, OR TRADE USAGE). IN ADDITION, REGENERATION BIOLOGY MAKES NO REPRESENTATION THAT THE OPERATION OF REGENERATION BIOLOGY.COM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, AND REGENERATION BIOLOGY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY INTERRUPTIONS OR ERRORS.

Independent Investigation

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE TO ALL OF ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WE MAY AT ANY TIME (DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY) SOLICIT CUSTOMER REFERRALS ON TERMS THAT MAY DIFFER FROM THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR OPERATE WEBSITES THAT ARE SIMILAR TO OR COMPETE WITH YOUR WEBSITE. YOU HAVE INDEPENDENTLY EVALUATED THE DESIRABILITY OF PARTICIPATING IN THE PROGRAM AND ARE NOT RELYING ON ANY REPRESENTATION, GUARANTEE, OR STATEMENT OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.

Arbitration

Except for disputes related to payment obligations and intellectual property claims, which shall be submitted to and resolved exclusively by the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts or Ottawa, Ontario the parties consent to the following dispute resolution process: the parties will first make a good faith attempt to resolve the dispute through negotiations between a director, officer or other designated representative of each party with the authority to settle the dispute.  If the dispute cannot be settled by such negotiations within fourteen (14) days from the date on which the allegedly aggrieved party notified the other party of the dispute, the allegedly aggrieved party shall submit the dispute for binding arbitration in Boston County, Massachusetts or Ottawa, Ontario.  Binding arbitration shall be administered in accordance with the mediation and arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).  The parties shall both participate in the selection of the sole arbitrator; provided, however, that if the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after either party has notified the other of an unreconciled dispute then the arbitrator will be appointed by the AAA.  Any award issued through the arbitration is enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. The prevailing party in such proceeding shall be entitled to receive its reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees and out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with such proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.

Provided this Agreement has neither expired nor been terminated while a dispute is pending resolution, performance of this Agreement shall continue. No payment due or payable shall be withheld due to any pending dispute resolution except to the extent that such payment is the subject of such pending dispute.

Any arbitration or trial by a judge of any claim will take place on an individual basis without resort to any form of class or representative action (“CLASS ACTION WAIVER”). Regardless of anything else in this Arbitration Provision, the validity and effect of the CLASS ACTION WAIVER may be determined only by a court and not by an arbitrator. Affiliate and Regeneration Biology acknowledge that the CLASS ACTION WAIVER is material and essential to the arbitration of any disputes between the parties and is non-severable from the agreement to arbitrate claims. If the CLASS ACTION WAIVER is limited, voided, or found unenforceable, then the parties’ agreement to arbitrate shall be null and void with respect to such proceeding, subject to the right to appeal the limitation or invalidation of the CLASS ACTION WAIVER. AFFILIATE AND REGENERATION BIOLOGY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL A CLASS ACTION BE ARBITRATED.

Miscellaneous

This Agreement represents the entire agreement between us and you and shall supersede all prior agreements and communications of the parties, oral or written. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the United States and the state of Massachusetts / Ontario, without reference to rules governing choice of laws. You may not assign this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise, without Regeneration Biology ’s prior written consent. Subject to that restriction, this Agreement will be binding on, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable against the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Regeneration Biology’s failure to enforce Affiliate’s strict performance of any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of our right to subsequently enforce such provision or any other provision of this Agreement. The headings and titles contained in this Agreement are included for convenience only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the terms of this Agreement.  If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent necessary such that the intent of the parties is effectuated, and the remainder of this agreement shall have full force and effect. The provisions of this Agreement which by their nature are intended to survive shall survive.
