Section 01Agreement Overview

These Affiliate Program Terms and Conditions (“Agreement”) constitute a legally binding contract between you (“Affiliate”) and 1591660 Ontario Corp (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your participation in the 1591660 Ontario Corp Affiliate Program (“Program”).

By registering for or participating in the Program, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not participate in the Program.

Section 02Eligibility and Enrollment

2.1 Open Enrollment

The Program is open to any individual, business, or entity that meets the following basic requirements:

• You must be at least 18 years of age or the age of majority in your jurisdiction.
• You must have a valid PayPal account or be able to receive payment by check for commission payments.
• You must agree to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and this Agreement.
• You must not be a current employee, contractor, or officer of the Company.

2.2 Registration

To join the Program, you must complete the affiliate registration form and provide accurate, complete, and current information. The Company reserves the right to reject any application or terminate any affiliate account at its sole discretion.

2.3 Account Responsibility

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your affiliate account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify the Company immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

Section 03Affiliate Links and Tracking

3.1 Unique Affiliate Links

Upon acceptance into the Program, you will be provided with unique affiliate tracking links (“Affiliate Links”) to use in your promotional activities. You must use only your designated Affiliate Links to ensure proper tracking and commission attribution.

3.2 Cookie Tracking Window

Referrals are tracked via browser cookies with a 30-day attribution window. This means a referred customer must complete a qualifying purchase within 30 days of clicking your Affiliate Link for you to receive a commission. If the cookie is cleared or expires before a purchase is made, the referral will not be attributed to you.

3.3 Last-Click Attribution

The Company uses a last-click attribution model. If a referred customer clicks the affiliate links of multiple affiliates, only the last affiliate whose link was clicked before purchase will receive credit for the referral.

Section 04Commission Structure

4.1 Commission Rate

Affiliates earn a percentage-based commission on qualifying sales generated through their Affiliate Links. The applicable commission rate(s) will be specified in your affiliate dashboard or in a separate written addendum to this Agreement. The Company reserves the right to modify commission rates with 30 days’ written notice to active affiliates.

4.2 Qualifying Sales

A “Qualifying Sale” is defined as a completed, paid subscription or purchase of the Company’s SaaS product by a new customer who was referred through your Affiliate Link, where:

• The customer had not previously purchased from the Company.
• The purchase was completed within the 30-day cookie tracking window.
• The transaction is not subject to fraud, chargeback, or refund.
• The sale does not otherwise violate this Agreement.

4.3 Refund and Chargeback Policy

Commissions are earned on a net-revenue basis. If a referred customer cancels, requests a refund, or initiates a chargeback within the Company’s applicable refund period, the corresponding commission will be reversed and deducted from your pending or future commission balance. The Company will notify you of any such reversals in your affiliate dashboard.

4.4 Commission Disputes

If you believe a commission has been incorrectly calculated or withheld, you must notify the Company in writing within 30 days of the relevant payment date. Disputes raised after this period will not be considered.

Section 05Payment Terms

5.1 Payment Schedule
