6. Payment

Creditrepairclassroom.com handles all of the tracking and payment of referral commissions and pays commissions on a monthly basis. All payments are made electronically, by check, or thru PayPal on or about the 20th day of each month. Payments are made when Your account balance reaches $75 or more for the previous months' transactions. Money credited to Your Account does not accrue interest. In the event of a CANCELLATION by a member referred by you, we may recover from You the corresponding Commission previously credited to Your Account. The RECOVERED Commission will be immediately deducted from Your Account balance. In the event that Your Account balance is less than the RECOVERED Commission, the RECOVERED Commission will be deducted against Your future earnings. 

As an affiliate member of creditrepairclassroom.com, you will be able to access your Affiliate Account information through the Affiliate Member login on the site. From there you will be able to receive reports that will display the people referred by you and describe our calculation of the commissions due to you.

7. Promotion Restrictions

7.1. You are free to promote your own web sites and send your own non-spam emails, but naturally any promotion that mentions creditrepairclassroom.com could be perceived by the public or the press as a joint effort. You should know that certain forms of advertising are always prohibited by creditrepairclassroom.com. For example, advertising commonly referred to as "spamming" is unacceptable to us and could cause damage to our name. Other generally prohibited forms of advertising include the use of unsolicited commercial email (UCE), postings to non-commercial newsgroups and cross-posting to multiple newsgroups at once. In addition, you may not advertise in any way that effectively conceals or misrepresents your identity, your domain name, or your return email address. You may use mailings to customers to promote creditrepairclassroom.com so long as the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of your services or web site, and recipients have the option to remove themselves from future mailings. Also, you may post to newsgroups to promote creditrepairclassroom.com so long as the news group specifically welcomes commercial messages. At all times, you must clearly represent yourself and your web sites as independent from creditrepairclassroom.com. If it comes to our attention that you are spamming, we will consider that cause for immediate termination of this Agreement and your participation in our Affiliate Program. Any pending balances owed to you will not be paid if your account is terminated due to such unacceptable advertising or solicitation.

7.2. Affiliate shall not transmit any so-called “interstitials,” “Parasiteware™,” “Parasitic Marketing,” “Shopping Assistance Application,” “Toolbar Installations and/or Add-ons,” “Shopping Wallets” or “deceptive pop-ups and/or pop-unders” to consumers. As used herein, “Parasiteware™” and “Parasitic Marketing” shall mean an application that (a) through accidental or direct intent causes the overwriting of affiliate and non affiliate commission tracking cookies through any other means than a customer initiated click on a qualifying link on a web page or email; (b) intercepts searches to redirect traffic through an installed software, thereby causing, pop ups, commission tracking cookies to be put in place or other commission tracking cookies to be overwritten where a user would under normal circumstances have arrived at the same destination through the results given by the search (search engines being, but not limited to, Bing, Google, MSN, Yahoo, Overture, AltaVista, Hotbot and similar search or directory engines); (c) set commission tracking cookies through loading of Merchant site in IFrames, hidden links and automatic pop ups; (d) targets text on web sites, other than those web sites 100% owned by the application owner, for the purpose of contextual marketing; (e) removes, replaces or blocks the visibility of Affiliate banners with any other banners, other than those that are on web sites 100% owned by the owner of the application.
