Bifound Business Training Institute

Bifound Affiliate Agreement  Bifound may offer you an opportunity to become an independent Bifound Affiliate (“Affiliate”), wherein you have the opportunity to earn additional money for Bifound programmes that you sell to other users. Bifound reserves the sole and exclusive right to determine the amount of remuneration each Affiliate will receive in exchange for the Affiliate’s efforts.  

This Affiliate Agreement (“Agreement”) governs Your application for, and any subsequent participation in, Bifound Affiliate program. By becoming an Affiliate and continuing the use of our Affiliate Program, You thereby accept the terms of this Agreement, You indicate that You have read and understood this Agreement, and agree that You are bound by its terms.  

SECTION 1 - PARTIES  

All references to “Bifound” herein means and refers to Bifound LTD, doing business as Bifound. All references to “You” and “Your” mean and refer to the person or entity who has executed this Agreement. Bifound and You are each referred to herein as a “Party,” and collectively as the “Parties.” 

SECTION 2 - APPLICATION  

You agree to provide all information requested by Bifound in connection with Your Affiliate application, and You affirm that all information that You provide is truthful and accurate. You understand and agree that Bifound retains sole and exclusive discretion to determine whether You qualify for participation in Bifound’ Affiliate program. Not everyone who applies for Bifound’ Affiliate program will qualify to participate.   

 

SECTION 3 - CONSENT TO BE CONTACTED  

You expressly consent to be contacted at the email address and the phone number You provide in Your application about Your application and the Affiliate program, including through automated dialling systems, texts and artificial or prerecorded messages. This consent is a material condition of this Agreement and may not be revoked except in writing by both Parties. 

SECTION 4 - COMPENSATION  

If Your application to become an Affiliate is approved by Bifound, You will receive a unique Affiliate ID. The Affiliate ID will be incorporated within each URL which You will use to advertise Bifound. You will have the opportunity to receive a commission for each sale (“Sale”) that is registered using Your Affiliate ID.  In the event that a potential new user (“Prospect”) has multiple Affiliate cookies (“Cookies”), the most recently-acquired Cookie will determine which Affiliate is credited with a Sale.  

Provided that the Sold Programme (as defined below) remains in good status within thirty (30) days from the Sale, You will be paid a commission for each Sold Programme that generates a payment to Bifound in a month (“Commission”). Except as otherwise provided herein, Commission payments will be paid on the 1st and 15th of each month following Bifound’ receipt of payment for a Sold Programme, subject to the other terms of this Agreement. 

In the event the 1st or 15th of each month falls on a holiday, Commission payments will be paid on the business day preceding the holiday. All Commission payments are based on the amount of fees received by Bifound, fewer sales taxes. The amount of Commissions are as follows: 

Rising-Star Affiliates (all affiliates with 100 or less new buying customers brought in): 25% commission from each Bifound Program sold via the unique affiliate link provided. 

Super-Star Affiliates (all affiliates with 101 or more new buying customers brought in): 40% commission from each Bifound Program sold via the unique affiliate link provided. 

All Commissions are paid in American Dollars (USD) or otherwise in currencies offered by the payment provider. Some payment methods may incur processing fees that may be deducted from Your Commissions payment. Your combined Commission must equal or exceed One Hundred USD ($100) before You receive a payment from Bifound. Once a Commission of $100 (USD) or more is earned, You will be notified and Bifound will send you the Commission via PayPal or as otherwise specified. 

You are solely responsible for complying with all tax laws in Your respective jurisdiction(s) including, but not limited to, the payment of all required taxes, and filing of all returns and other required documents with, the applicable governing body(ies).  

Affiliates will not be paid any Commissions for payments made on Affiliate’s own user account(s). Affiliates are not permitted to open a Bifound account under the name of another person or entity, under a fictitious name, or under any name merely to obtain Commissions or any other compensation. 

Affiliates may not pay for another person’s or entity’s account. Affiliates are not permitted to offer cash rebates or other monetary incentives to obtain Sales.  Commissions are paid only for transactions that actually occur between Bifound and a Sale and in which payment is received by Bifound. If payment for a Sold Programme later results in a refund or chargeback, and if a Commission was paid to You for that Sold Programme payment, then the Commission will be deducted from Your future Commissions.  

If Bifound determines, in its sole and exclusive discretion, that any Sale was procured fraudulently or as a result of any violation of this Agreement or applicable law, no Commission will be paid for such Sale and, for past sales, such payment amounts shall be deducted from Your future Commissions, and Bifound may terminate this Agreement immediately without Bifound having any liability to You.  

SECTION 5 - TERM AND TERMINATION 

The term of this Agreement will begin the earlier of (i) when You click “I accept the Terms and Conditions” and submit; or (ii) Your participation in the Affiliate program is approved. 

Your participation in the Bifound Affiliate program will continue month-to-month until terminated. Either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other Party thirty (30) days’ written notice of termination. If, in our sole discretion, You fail, or we suspect that You have failed, to comply with any term or provision of the Agreement or the Terms of Service, or violated any law, whether in connection with Your use of Bifound or otherwise, we may terminate the Agreement or suspend Your access to the Affiliate website (“Website”) at any time without notice to You. In such an instance, and in our sole discretion, we may also for the aforementioned reasons, terminate our relationship and suspend any accounts owned/controlled by You.

 For the avoidance of doubt, and without limitation for purposes of the foregoing, any violation of the required disclosure will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. See Appendix A, Section 2, Disclosure. 

In the event this Agreement is cancelled due to Your breach, You immediately forfeit all Commissions and any other payments owed to You or that may in the future be owed to You without any further liability by Bifound to You.  If this Agreement is terminated or cancelled, then all provisions that, by their nature, should survive, will survive, including, but not necessarily limited to, all limitations of liability, disclaimers of warranties, indemnity obligations, mandatory arbitration and class action waiver provisions, and exceptions to arbitration. 

All representations and warranties undertaken by You shall also survive termination or cancellation of this Agreement and/or Your Bifound account.
