6) CONSULTANT PROGRAM

After your acceptance in the Consultant Program, you must ensure that your online account is fully set up, including without limitation, providing specific payout information and location (a valid PayPal account that we may use to send or post payments to you).

Please be advised that below is a general description of the Consultant Program. Everything contained in this section is subject to all terms and conditions found in this Agreement.

We will provide you with a specific link or links which correspond to certain products we offer for sale (collectively, the "Link"). The Link will be keyed to your identity and will send online users to the Company's website or websites. You hereby agree to fully cooperate with us regarding the Link and agree that you will explicitly comply with all of the terms of this Agreement for the promotion of the Link at all times. We may modify the Link and will notify you if we do so. You agree to only use links which are prior approved by us and agree to display the Link prominently on your website(s) or social media pages, as described in your Consultant Handbook (collectively, the "Herbal Dynamics Website").

Each time a user clicks through the Link posted on the Herbal Dynamics Website and completes the sale of a specific product or service and we determine it is a Qualified Purchase, as described below, you will be eligible to receive the following percentage of that specific sale, based on the net amount, excluding taxes, shipping, discounts and returned orders:

  • 25% (twenty-five percent) for total monthly sales between $0 and $750 (based on calendar month).
  • 28% (twenty-five percent) for total monthly sales between $750 and $1250 (based on calendar month).
  • 32% (thirty-two percent) for total monthly sales between $1250 and $2500 (based on calendar month).
  • 35% (thirty-five percent) for total monthly sales between $2500 and $5000 (based on calendar month).
  • 37% (thirty-seven percent) for total monthly sales between $5000 and $10,000 (based on calendar month).
  • 40% (forty percent) for total monthly sales over $10,000 (based on calendar month).

7) SPECIFIC TERMS APPLICABLE

We will determine whether each payout is permissible in our sole and exclusive discretion. We reserve the right to reject clicks and/or sales that do not comply with the terms of this Agreement and the conduct standards outlined in the Consultant Handbook.

Processing and fulfillment of orders will be our responsibility. We will also provide real-time data regarding your account with us through the Dashboard portal on which you log into the website.

As described above, in order to be eligible for each payout, online user purchases must be "Qualified Purchases." Qualified Purchases:

  1. Must not be referred by any other partner or affiliate links of the Company (in other words, Qualified Purchases must only be available through your specific Consultant Link;
  2. May not be purchased by an already-existing partner or affiliate of the Company;
  3. May not be purchased prior to the Consultant joining the Consultant Program;
  4. May only be purchased through a properly-tracking Consultant Link;
  5. May not be purchased by a customer in violation of any of our legal terms or Acceptable Use Policy (section 14);
  6. May not be fraudulent in any way, in the Company's sole and exclusive discretion;
  7. May not have been induced by the Consultant offering the customer any coupons, discounts, or any other incentives outside of the offers specifically pre-approved by the Company;

8) PAYOUT INFORMATION

Payouts will only be available when the Company has your current payout information (PayPal account), and your accounting and tax documentation. You may be asked to send us an IRS W8/W9 tax form before payout. Accounting information includes an email address for an online method of payment (Paypal).

Currently, the Company employs the following methods of payout:

  • PayPal

For any changes or updates to your contact or accounting information, you must notify us immediately and we will endeavor to make the requested changes as soon as possible. You may also update your PayPal address in your Dashboard, under the Settings tab.

Payouts will be available the month or time period after they accrue. Payouts are made 15 days after the close of the month. For example, for sales made during the month of January, payouts would be issued February 15 for that term.

We explicitly reserve the right to change payout information in our sole and exclusive discretion. If we do so, you will be notified via email or other written method.

For any disputes regarding payout, you must notify the Company in writing within thirty (30) days of your receipt of the relevant payout. We will review each dispute notification, as well as the underlying payout transaction to which it is related. Disputes filed more than thirty days after a disputed payout was paid will not be addressed.

The Parties are each responsible for paying all of their own federal, state, local, and foreign taxes, duties, tariffs, and fees, as applicable to them.

9) REPORTS

You may log into your account with us to review reports related to your affiliation, such as payout reports and qualified click and/or purchase information. Please be advised however, that not all listed qualifying clicks and/or purchases have been fully reviewed for accuracy in the reports viewable by you in real-time, and may therefore be subject to change prior to payout. Consumer returns may also alter report and ledger data in the event a consumer returns a product for a refund.

10) TERM, TERMINATION & SUSPENSION
