Referral Rewards Program Terms and Conditions

 
 

Agreement
This Agreement contains the general terms and conditions that apply to an individual or entity's participation in Summa Marketing Communications' (hereinafter "SMC") Referral Rewards Program ("RRP"). Please read this Agreement carefully before accessing the referral link and making any referrals. If you do not wish to be bound by these Terms and Conditions, you may not participate in the RRP.

Enrollment Policy
To be eligible to participate in the RRP, you must be an existing SMC client in good standing.

Term of the Agreement
The term of this Agreement under the RRP will begin upon SMC entering into a contract for its services with any new client referred by you. However, if in the event that the referred client fails to pay for services agreed to under its contract with SMC, then your RRP Agreement may be terminated at SMC's sole discretion. SMC may cancel or modify the RRP and this Agreement at any time. Such cancellation or modification will not affect any Referral Rewards already granted under this Agreement.

Referral Rewards
Referral Process: If you provide SMC (via the RRP referral link) with a prospective client and if SMC and the prospective client enter into a contract for any of SMC's services within 90 days of your referral, then you will receive a Referral Reward as defined in the following paragraph. SMC reserves the right to reject any referrals that do not comply with any requirements that it may periodically establish. In the event that SMC receives duplicate or conflicting referrals from different existing clients, SMC may, at its sole discretion, determine who receives credit for such referrals. In most cases, the first referral received will be eligible for the Referral Reward. SMC's decision concerning the order of receipt will be final. The referral information provided by you will not be used for any purpose other than to confirm referrals. SMC, in its sole discretion, may refuse to accept any referral that offends SMC's website hosting policy, or for any other reason.

Referral Rewards:For each successful referral that results in a contract between SMC and the client referred by you to SMC, you will receive a Referral Reward of six (6) months of website hosting for $1 per month (a maximum credit of $33.99 per month, a $203.94 value). This Referral Reward may be applied to your existing website hosting account with SMC or to the hosting of a new website with SMC. All existing SMC clients are eligible to receive Referral Rewards for an unlimited number of successful referrals. The Referral Rewards received through successful referrals may be applied to up to two (2) years worth of credit on one (1) website hosting account with SMC. Alternatively, Referral Rewards for successful referrals may be applied to multiple website hosting accounts with SMC, or to establish new hosting accounts with SMC, as long as they are registered in your name or your company's name. The Referral Reward will be applied against your SMC account within sixty (60) days of the date SMC entered into a contract with the client you referred. Referral Rewards will expire after twelve (12) months if you do not maintain a current website hosting account with SMC.

Responsibility for Your Website
The RRP applies only to the hosting of your website by SMC. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, you will be solely responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of your website.

Furthermore, SMC's aggregate liability arising with respect to this Agreement and the affiliate RRP will not exceed the total Referral Reward amount granted under this Agreement.
