This Agreement contains the terms and conditions upon which we offer you
participation in the Open the Joy, Affiliate Program
(the “Program”). The Program is being managed by Refersion, our affiliate
marketing platform, to facilitate relationships with our affiliates and to
provide tracking, reporting, and management of commission payments. Acceptance
of this Agreement by participation in the Program creates a binding legal
agreement between Open the Joy LLC. (“Open the Joy”) and you. As used in this Agreement, "we" or “us”means Open the Joy, "you" means the participant in the Program, and
"our Website” means www.Open the Joy.com. This Agreement supplements the Open the Joy.com
 Terms and Conditions, and Privacy Policy which are incorporated by this
 reference.

1.Enrollment In The Program

The purpose of the Program is to promote the sale of products offered on our Website.
To begin the enrollment process, you must submit an application through the Program Registration Page on our Website. When you provide information during the registration process, you agree to provide only true, accurate, current and
complete information and to update it as necessary to maintain its truth and
accuracy. We will evaluate your application and notify you of your acceptance
or rejection. We may reject your application for any reason in our sole
discretion. We may reject applications related to websites that: (i) promote
discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual
orientation, or age; (ii) promote violence,
hate, illegal activities or display sexually explicit materials; (iii) are
intended to harass or defame anyone; or (iv) otherwise violate our intellectual
property rights or those of others. We have the right, in our sole discretion,
to monitor your website at any time to determine if you are in compliance with
the terms of this Agreement.  If we
reject your application, you are welcome to reapply to the Program at any time
for our reconsideration.

2. Program Links To Our Website

If you have been notified that you have been accepted into the Program we may, at
our option, enable you to provide on your Website one or more of the following
types of links to our Website: Affiliate Links, Coupon Codes or Email Triggers
(collectively, “Program Links”). These links are to permit accurate tracking,
reporting and accrual of commissions and may be provided to you in the Program
Registration Page on our Website.
You must ensure that each link between your website and our Website is a Program
Link. You will earn commissions on sales that originate through Program Links.
In order for you to be eligible for a commission on any purchase (including
future purchases by a repeat customer), the customer must log in to
Open the Joy.com through your Program Link and complete the purchase before
logging out. We are not responsible for any failure by you to use Program
Links. Because of the difficulty verifying other purchases by customers you
refer to us, we will not pay commissions unless you use Program Links. Finally,
please note that you may only earn commissions by referring customers to Open the Joy.com.

3.Use of Content

We may provide you with product images, graphics, logos and other content (“Content”)
through the Program Registration Page on our Website. We may make available to
you a small graphic image that identifies your website as a Program affiliate.
This image may be displayed on your website. We may modify the image from time
to time. In addition, we encourage you
 to include a legend that identifies you as an Open the Joy.com
 affiliate on the homepage of your website that links to the  home page of our Website.
Any content that we provide to you is the property of Open the Joy or its content
suppliers and is protected by United States and international copyright laws.
We grant you a limited, nonexclusive, full paid, revocable right to use the
Content solely for purposes of your participation in the Program. You may not
sublicense any Content to any other person or party. Content cannot be used in
any form other than the form provided by us.

6. Order Processing

We will process product orders placed by customers who follow a Program Link from
your website to our Website. We reserve the right to reject orders that do not
comply with any requirements that we may establish. We will be responsible for
all aspects of order processing and fulfillment. Among other things, we will
prepare order forms, process payments, cancellations and returns, and handle
customer service. Through Refersion, our affiliate marketing platform, we will
track sales made to customers who purchase products using Program Links and
will make available to you reports summarizing this sales activity. You will
not receive any of our individual customer information.

7. Payments

You will be eligible to earn affiliate payments on certain product sales in
accordance with Section 8 below. For a product sale to be eligible for
payments, the customer must follow a Program Link from your website to our
Website, select and purchase the product using our service provider’s shopping
platform, accept delivery of the product at the shipping destination, and remit
full payment to us. No affiliate payments will be paid if the visitor to the
affiliate’s website cannot be tracked by our system.

8. Earning Affiliate Payments

We may pay affiliates based on a percentage of sales, a flat rate, or a tiered
commission structure. The payment method and percentage is subject to change
from time to time, in our sole discretion. Certain affiliates may receive
offers to be paid under different commission structures as we may determine
from time to time. If a product that generated commissions is returned by the
customer, we will deduct the corresponding commission from your next commission
payment. All commission related data under the Program is collected, calculated
and managed by Refersion, our affiliate marketing platform, and its data will
be the only valid basis used for determining commissions.

9. Length of Cookie Purchase Period

Our Program uses a thirty (30) day cookie purchase period. This means that if a
visitor to your website clicks through a Program Link to our Website, you will
be eligible for commissions related to purchases made by your visitor within
thirty (30) days of its click on the Program Link on your website. We will pay
commissions to only one affiliate for purchases associated with a given cookie.
To the extent multiple affiliates request payments, Refersion shall determine
which affiliate to pay. Its decision shall be final and binding. We may change
the length of our cookie period from time to time.

10. Commission Payments

No commissions will be paid to you until you have accrued affiliate payments of at least 
$25.00. Any money held in your account will not collect interest. Subject to
the foregoing, we will pay commissions on a monthly basis. Thirty (30) days
 following the end of each month, we will pay commissions to you through 
PayPal or we may give you a gift card at your option. You authorize us to share
 with PayPal such information and other transaction information necessary for our
use of the payment processing services provided by PayPal.

If a product that generated commissions is returned by the customer, we will
 deduct the corresponding commission from your next commission payment.

               
Affiliate accounts that are “abandoned” will be removed from the Program if their balance 
is less than $25. An abandoned account is any account that has not been logged
into for a period of one (1) year without any transactions having
 been posted to that account.

11. Customer Policies And Pricing 

Customers who buy products through the Program are customers of Open the Joy.com. 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. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to present
accurate information, but we cannot guarantee the availability or price of any
particular product. 

12.Special Rules for Endorsements

All endorsements made by you in connection with any promotions of any product will
 be accurate and contain all disclosures and disclaimers necessary to prevent
such endorsements from being false or deceptive. Such disclosures and
disclaimers must be made in a clear and conspicuous manner, and comply with all
U.S. federal and state laws, including U.S. Federal Trade Commission
("FTC") regulations, policies and guidelines governing advertising,
disclosure and consumer protection, including the FTC's Endorsement Guidelines.
