Welcome to the RIDIER Consulting Group Affiliate Program! By signing up to be an affiliate in the RIDIER Consulting Group Affiliate Program (“Program”) you are agreeing to be bound by the following terms and conditions (“Terms of Service”).
RIDIER Consulting Group reserves the right to update and change the Terms of Service from time to time without notice. Any new features that augment or enhance the current Program, including the release of new tools and resources, shall be subject to the Terms of Service. Continued use of the Program after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes.
Violation of any of the terms below will result in the termination of your account and forfeiture of any outstanding affiliate commission payments earned during the violation. You agree to use the Affiliate Program at your own risk.
Once you have signed up for the Affiliate Program, you will be assigned a unique Affiliate link. You are permitted to place links, banners, or other graphics we provide with your Affiliate link on your site, in your emails, or in other communications. We will provide you with guidelines, link styles, and graphical artwork to use in linking to RIDIER Consulting Group. We may change the design of the artwork at any time without notice, but we will not change the dimensions of the images without proper notice.
To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and referral fee accrual, we will provide you with special link formats to be used in all links between your site and the RIDIER Consulting Group. You must ensure that each of the links between your site and the RIDIER Consulting Group properly utilizes such special link formats. Links to the RIDIER Consulting Group placed on your site pursuant to this Agreement and which properly utilize such special link formats are referred to as “Special Links.” You will earn referral fees only with respect to sales on a RIDIER Consulting Group product occurring directly through Special Links; we will not be liable to you with respect to any failure by you or someone you refer to use Special Links or incorrectly type your Affiliate Code, including to the extent that such failure may result in any reduction of amounts that would otherwise be paid to you pursuant to this Agreement. In order for the affiliation to be tracked, you must send your unique link for the customer to make the purchase.
Affiliate links should point to the page of the product being promoted.
For a product sale to be eligible to earn a referral fee, the customer must click-through a Special Link from your site, email, or other communications to https://ridiermethodology.com/affiliate and complete an order for a product during that session. In order for the affiliation to be tracked, you must send your unique link for the customer to make the purchase.
We will only pay commissions on links that are automatically tracked and reported by our systems. We will not pay commissions if someone says they purchased or someone says they entered a referral code if it was not tracked by our system. We can only pay commissions on business generated through properly formatted special links that were automatically tracked by our systems.
We reserve the right to disqualify commissions earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly aggressive, questionable sales or marketing methods.
Payments only begin once you’ve earned more than $100 in affiliate income. If your affiliate account never crosses the $100 threshold, your commissions will not be realized or paid. We are only responsible for paying accounts that have crossed the $100 threshold.
Payouts for affiliate earnings will be calculated and paid out in lump sum 7 days after the start of the course. For other products, such as our software or consulting services, payments will be released 30 days after the client’s purchase.
You may not issue any press release with respect to this Agreement or your participation in the Program; such action may result in your termination from the Program. In addition, you may not in any manner misrepresent or embellish the relationship between us and you, say you develop our products, say you are part of RIDIER Consulting Group, or express or imply any relationship or affiliation between us and you or any other person or entity except as expressly permitted by this Agreement (including by expressing or implying that we support, sponsor, endorse, or contribute money to any charity or other cause).
Customers who buy products through this Program will be deemed to be our customers. Accordingly, all of our rules, policies, and operating procedures concerning customer orders, customer service, and product sales will apply to those customers. We may change our policies and operating procedures at any time. For example, we will determine the prices to be charged for products sold under this Program in accordance with our own pricing policies. Product prices and availability may vary from time to time. Because price changes may affect Products that you have listed on your site, you should not display product prices on your site. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to present accurate information, but we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any particular product.
You will be solely responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of your site and for all materials that appear on your site. For example, you will be solely responsible for:
As a condition of your participation in the Program, you agree that while you are a Program participant you will comply with all laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, licenses, permits, judgments, decisions, and other requirements of any governmental authority that has jurisdiction over you, whether those laws, etc. are now in effect or later come into effect during the time you are a Program participant. Without limiting the foregoing obligation, you agree that as a condition of your participation in the Program you will comply with all applicable laws (federal, state, or otherwise) that govern marketing email, including without limitation, the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 and all other anti-spam laws.
The term of this Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your Program application and will end when terminated by either party. Either you or we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice of termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason, you will immediately cease use of, and remove from your site, all links to https://ridiermethodology.com/affiliate, and all our trademarks, trade dress, and logos, and all other materials provided by or on behalf of us to you pursuant hereto or in connection with the Program. RIDIER Consulting Group reserves the right to end the Program at any time. Upon program termination, RIDIER Consulting Group will pay any outstanding earnings accrued above $100.
RIDIER Consulting Group, in its sole discretion, has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Program, or any other RIDIER Consulting Group service, for any reason at any time. Such termination of the Service will result in the deactivation or deletion of your Account or your access to your Account, and the forfeiture and relinquishment of all potential or to-be-paid commissions in your Account if they were earned through fraudulent, illegal, or overly aggressive, questionable sales or marketing methods. RIDIER Consulting Group reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.
You and we are independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement will create any partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, sales representative, or employment relationship between the parties. You will have no authority to make or accept any offers or representations on our behalf. You will not make any statement, whether on your site or otherwise, that reasonably would contradict anything in this Section
