By filling out the signup form you acknowledge that you have read the terms and conditions below for the hkDVDstore.com AFFILIATE Program, understand, and agree with them.

1. Joining the Program
By filling out the signup form you will automatically become an AFFILIATE and are bound by the terms of this agreement. Your participation in the program is solely for this purpose: to legally advertise our website to receive a commission on products purchased by your referred individuals.

Commision Schedule

A base commission of 10% shall be paid for each order by a new customer that was referred by the affiliate in a manner appropriate with our linking and tracking conditions. This is tracked accordingly per the affiliate's designated link as generated during signup and/or banner/link generation by the website's affiliate system.
Commission earned is only for the initial purchase by a new customer referred by said affiliate. All subsequent sales made to a customer do not earn any commissions.
Higher commission rates may be given to affiliates whom generate higher levels of sales and/or traffic. This is given at the discretion of management on a case-by-case basis.

2. Payment Schedule

Eligible payments - all AFFILIATE commissions due for orders generated as a result of AFFILIATE links/Web Site/Referrals will be held for 45 days after the Shipping Date of an order. Orders are typically shipped 1-7 days after a order is placed. This allows us ample time to compensate for returns, exchanges or cancelled orders. Payments will be calculated and checks/Paypal sent out to AFFILIATE during the last week of any given month according to the terms and conditions of this document.
AFFILIATE Payments - payment to AFFILIATE will not be rendered for amounts less than $25USD unless requested by AFFILIATE. Example: if you have a total of $50.00 in sales you would have $5.00 (based on 10% commissions) in your affiliate account, thus your account will carry over ino the next months cycle. When your account total reaches $25USD or more you will be sent a check provided all orders associated meet the conditions set forth in (a) above.
Store Credit can be issued upon request in lieu of payment by check/Paypal to AFFILIATE.

3. Revocation of AFFILIATE Status
Your AFFILIATE application and status in the program may be suspended or terminated for any of the following reasons:

4. AFFILIATE Links

5. AFFILIATE Tracking
When a web surfer clicks through your AFFILIATE link, a cookie is set in their browser that contains your AFFILIATE username/affiliate ID. Also, their IP address is tracked in the database along with your AFFILIATE name. When this person decides to buy a product, the script will look for this cookie and/or try to match their IP address to identify the AFFILIATE who will be awarded the commission. Visitors sent through your AFFILIATE link may make a purchase later in time (up to 72 hours) and the commission will still be awarded if the cookie is present in their browser as the one logged in the database.

6. Terms of the agreement
These terms will begin upon your signup with the AFFILIATE program and will end when your AFFILIATE account is terminated. The terms of this agreement may be modified by us at any time.
