Glow Getters Affiliate Terms & Conditions

These Affiliate Program Terms & Conditions ("Agreement") are between Flashing Blinky Lights Inc ("we," "us," or "Company") and you, the individual or entity applying to participate in our affiliate program ("you"). By checking the box labeled "I agree to the Affiliate Program Terms & Conditions" during the registration process, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. Your acceptance is recorded automatically along with the date, time, and IP address of submission.

1. The Program
We operate an affiliate program that allows you to earn commissions by referring customers to flashingblinkylights.com using the unique coupon code and/or referral link we assign to you upon approval.

You are an independent contractor — not an employee, agent, or partner of ours. You have no authority to enter into agreements or obligations on our behalf.
Participation in the program is subject to our approval. We reserve the right to decline any application at our sole discretion, without obligation to provide a reason.

2. Commissions
Standard Rate: You earn eight percent (10%) of the net order subtotal — meaning after any discounts are applied, and excluding taxes, shipping charges, and gift card redemptions — for each qualifying purchase made using your assigned coupon code or referral link.

Excluded Transactions: You will not earn commissions on orders that are refunded, returned, or identified as fraudulent. You may not use your own coupon code or referral link to make purchases for yourself or members of your immediate household.

Cookie Window: Your referral link carries a 30-day tracking cookie from the time of first click. Your coupon code is attributed to you for any order in which it is applied, regardless of when the customer first visited our site.

3. Your Coupon Code & Referral Link
We will assign you one (1) unique coupon code upon approval of your application. You may not alter the code, attempt to create additional codes, or misrepresent your code as offering any discount greater than what we have authorized.

Your coupon code gives customers 10% off their order and simultaneously tracks the sale back to your account for commission purposes.

You may not offer additional cash-back, incentives, or discounts layered on top of your code without our prior written permission.

4. Payouts
Commissions are paid monthly, on or around the 5th of each month, for all commissions approved during the prior calendar month.

The minimum payout threshold is twenty-five dollars ($25.00). If your approved balance is below this amount, it carries over to the following month.

Each commission enters a 30-day pending period after the associated order ships. It becomes eligible for payout once the pending period has elapsed and the order has not been returned or refunded.

Payouts are sent via PayPal to the email address on file in your affiliate account. You may alternatively elect to receive your earnings as store credit, in which case we will apply a 10% bonus to the credit amount.

If you earn six hundred dollars ($600) or more through this program in a calendar year, we are required by law to issue you an IRS Form 1099-NEC. You must provide a completed W-9 form before any payout will be processed once this threshold is met.

5. How You May Promote Us
You must clearly and conspicuously disclose your relationship with us whenever you promote our products, in compliance with FTC guidelines. Acceptable disclosures include "#ad," "#sponsored," "#paidpartnership," or using the built-in paid partnership disclosure tool on the relevant platform.

You may not make false, exaggerated, or misleading claims about our products, pricing, or policies.

You may not bid on our branded search terms (e.g., "Flashing Blinky Lights") in paid advertising campaigns without our prior written approval.

You may not promote your affiliate code or link through spam, unsolicited email or messages, misleading redirects, cookie stuffing, or any other deceptive traffic generation method.

6. Use of Our Brand Assets
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to use our logos, product images, and approved brand assets solely for the purpose of promoting our products in accordance with this Agreement.

You may not alter, distort, or misrepresent our brand assets. You may not use our name or imagery in any way that implies a deeper relationship or endorsement beyond what this Agreement establishes.

7. Term & Termination
This Agreement takes effect the moment you check the acceptance box and submit your application. It continues unless terminated by either of us.

Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time with fourteen (14) days written notice sent to the other party's email address on record.

We may terminate your participation immediately and without advance notice if you engage in fraud, violate any term of this Agreement, or take actions that we reasonably believe harm our brand or reputation.

When your participation ends, your coupon code will be deactivated. Any commissions already in "approved" status will be paid out on the next scheduled payout date. Commissions still in a pending status at the time of a termination for cause will be forfeited.

8. Liability & Indemnification
Our total liability to you under this Agreement will not exceed the total commissions we have paid you in the three (3) months immediately preceding any claim.

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any third-party claims, losses, damages, or expenses — including reasonable legal fees — that arise from your promotional activities or from any breach of this Agreement on your part.

9. Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email and require you to re-accept the updated terms before your next payout is processed. Your continued participation after notice of non-material changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

10. Governing Law
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under this Agreement that cannot be resolved informally will be submitted to binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.

ACCEPTANCE — SYSTEM RECORDED
By submitting your information on the application form and upon approval, you are entering into a legally binding agreement with Flashing Blinky Lights Inc. Your acceptance is logged automatically with your name, email address, IP address, timestamp, and the version number of these terms. A confirmation email will be sent to the address on your account as your record of acceptance.
