Advertising Policies - Prior Consent for Material Reference
Affiliates must seek prior written consent before creating, publishing, distributing, or printing any written material that references your program. Content must align with our brand image and messaging.
You shall not create, publish, distribute, or print any written material that makes reference to our Program without first submitting that material to us and receiving our prior written consent. If you intend to promote our Program via e-mail campaigns, you must adhere to the following:
1. Abide by the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (Public Law No. 108-187) with respect to our Program.

Promotion on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms is permitted following these general guidelines:

If you are conducting business in or taking orders from persons in other countries, you will follow the laws of those countries. For example, you will comply with the European Union’s Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive if you are conducting business in or taking orders from persons in one or more of the European Union countries.
Reversal Policy
QuWave LLC takes pride in its very low reversal rate, which we attribute to open communication with our affiliates. However, we reserve the right to reverse orders due to order cancellations, duplicate tracking, returns, disputed charges, and program violations as outlined in these terms and conditions.
Additionally, if we ask you for clarification or more information on any orders or clicks that we suspect may be in violation of our terms and conditions, we expect that you will respond in a timely and honest manner. Below are violations of our communications policy.
1. You are not forthcoming, you are intentionally vague, or you are found to be lying.
2. You are not responsive within a reasonable time period and after multiple attempts to contact you using the information listed in your network profile.
3. You cannot substantiate or validate the source of your traffic to our program with clear and demonstrable proof.
If any of the above apply, then we reserve the absolute right to reverse orders, set your commission to 0% or suspend you from the program for the period or orders in question. We know that many violations are a result of automated processes; however it is incumbent upon each affiliate to ensure that it has the appropriate checks and balances in place to pro-actively address these issues and adhere to our program rules.
FTC Disclosure Requirements
You shall include a disclosure statement within any and all pages, blog/posts, or social media posts where affiliate links for our affiliate program are posted as an endorsement or review, and where it is not clear that the link is a paid advertisement. This disclosure statement should be clear and concise, stating that we are compensating you for your review or endorsement. If you received the product for free from us or from the affiliate management team for review, this also must be clearly stated in your disclosure.
1. Disclosures must be made as close as possible to the claims.
2. Disclosures should be placed above the fold; scrolling should not be necessary to find the disclosure. (e.g. Disclosure should be visible before the jump).
3. Pop-up disclosures are prohibited.
4. Disclosures must be made on the page where the endorsement is made. Linking to a disclosure is not sufficient.
5. Non-US-based affiliates must still comply with US FTC rules.
For more information about FTC disclosure requirements, please review the FTC’s “Dot Com Disclosures” Guidelines at http://www.ftc.gov/os/2013/03/130312dotcomdisclosures.pdf ; and the FTC’s Endorsement Guidelines at

Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Guidelines
If you are enrolled in our Program and participate in PPC advertising, you must adhere to our PPC guidelines as follows:
1. You may not bid on any of our trademarked terms (which are identified below), including any variations or misspellings thereof for search or content based campaigns on Google, Bing, Yahoo, Facebook or any other network.
2. You may not use our trademarked terms as part of the name of your site (e.g., you cannot name your site “QuWave or Metaphysical-Products”).
3. You may not use our trademarked terms in your ad title, ad copy, display name or as the display url.
4. You may not direct link to our website from any Pay Per Click ad or use redirects that yield the same result. Affiliates must be directed to an actual page on your website.
If you automate your PPC campaigns, it is your responsibility to exclude our trademarked terms from your program and we strongly suggest you add our trademarked terms as negative keywords. We have a strict no tolerance policy on PPC trademark bidding. You will forfeit all commissions for a minimum of the past 30 days and your commission will be set to 0% without warning if you engage in PPC trademark bidding that uses our trademarked terms.
Coupon Guidelines
Depending on what type of promotion you are running, you can now offer discount coupons to your audience. Coupons are keyed to your affiliate account and generated on an as-needed basis so you will need to contact us to request a coupon for your specific campaign. You can provide a text word you would like to use. Discounts are typically 10%. All coupons require a termination date which you can provide.
Your coupon policy is 100% up to you. Below, I will share the coupon guidelines we used with the QuWave LLC affiliate agreement. If you are enrolled in our Program and your Website promotes coupon codes, you must adhere to our Coupon Guidelines as follows:
1. If you choose to advertise QuWave LLC coupon codes then the ONLY QuWave LLC coupon codes you may advertise are QuWave LLC coupon codes that are provided to you through the affiliate program or network or that are displayed on our website(s). (This limitation applies only to QuWave LLC coupon codes; there is no limitation regarding coupons from any other company or product)
2. You may NOT advertise QuWave LLC coupon codes obtained from our non-affiliate advertising, customer e-mails, paid search, or any other campaign.
3. Posting any information about how to work around the requirements of a coupon/promotion (ie first time customers only) will result in removal from the program.
4. Coupons must be displayed in their entirety with the full offer, valid expiration date and code.
5. You may NOT use any technology that covers up the coupon code and generates the affiliate click by revealing the code(s).
6. You may NOT give the appearance that any ongoing offer requires clicking from your website in order to redeem. For example, if all items on the site have free shipping over $100, you may not turn this into an offer that infers that the customer must click from your site to get this deal.
Additionally, if your website ranks on the first page of Google for terms related to our website or company name(s) combined with the words coupon, coupons, coupon code, promo code, etc. and/or your conversion rate exceeds 25%, you may be offered a lower commission than our standard rate to offset the reduced profitability of orders.
