AFFILIATE PROGRAM TERMS OF SERVICE These Terms of Service are entered into by and between you and Practice Pizzazz, LLC, (“Practice Pizzazz”) and govern the terms of Practice Pizzazz’s affiliate program (the "Affiliate Program"). BY PARTICIPATING IN THE AFFILIATE PROGRAM, YOU ARE INDICATING YOUR AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF SERVICE AS WELL AS PRACTICE PIZZAZZ’S TERMS OF USE AND PRIVACY POLICY. Your participation in the Affiliate Program is conditioned on your acceptance of these Terms of Service and all terms, conditions, and notices contained herein. Please read the Terms of Service carefully. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Service, you must not participate in the Affiliate Program. 1. Eligibility for the Affiliate Program Practice Pizzazz reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept or reject any application for membership in the Affiliate Program for any reason. Affiliates must be at least 18 years old in order to participate in the Affiliate Program. 2. Referrals You will receive commission for Qualified Referrals to Practice Pizzazz. The percentage of commission may change at any time and without notice. As of May 26, 2020, the commissions are as follows: 40% June 4–June 10, 2020 20% thereafter "Qualified Referrals" mean customers referred by you to Practice Pizzazz who: (1) click on your unique tracking link; (2) within ninety (90) days of clicking on your unique tracking link, successfully purchase Violin Repair & Care (online course); and (3) maintain an active account with Practice Pizzazz for a minimum of thirty-one (31) days. 3. Commissions Commissions earned on referrals become payable 30 days after the referred customer becomes a Qualified Referral. Your total commission amount must equal or exceed fifty US Dollars ($50) before receiving a payment from Paypal. If your total commissions for a given month are less than $50, payment will be held until the total commissions equal or exceed $50. If at any time a Qualified Referral files a credit card dispute, any earned Affiliate commission on the disputed charge shall become frozen in your account until the dispute is settled. You will not receive any interest on commissions that have been frozen. If the dispute is settled in Practice Pizzazz’s favor, any associated earned Affiliate commission will become payable to you. If the dispute is settled in the Qualified Referral’s favor, any associated earned Affiliate commission shall not be paid to you. If commissions have already been paid out to you, the amount of earned commissions on the disputed charges shall be debited to your account. Commission payments will be paid in US Dollars and may be made via check or electronic payment (such as Paypal). You are responsible for paying all applicable fees associated with accepting payments, including but not limited to, currency conversion fees, transaction fees, withdrawal fees, deposit fees, and check cashing fees. In order to receive payments for earned commissions, you must provide a completed Form W-8 or Form W-9. You will be deemed to have permanently waived all rights to Commissions that were earned more than 120 days before submitting a completed Form W-8 or Form W-9.

If requests for documentation are not responded to in a timely manner, Practice Pizzazz reserves the right to terminate, deactivate, or not approve your account. 4. Marketing You shall bear your own costs and expenses related to marketing and promoting Practice Pizzazz and/or the Affiliate Program. Practice Pizzazz is not obligated to reimburse or credit you for any marketing expenses.
