Thank you for considering the Cirem Affiliate program. Our affiliates are very important to us; accordingly, this agreement is designed to be fair to both you and us and to protect you, Cirem and our customers. As an authorized affiliate (Affiliate) of Cirem, you agree to abide by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement (Agreement). Please read the entire Agreement carefully before registering and promoting Cirem as an Affiliate. You may print this page for your records.
Your participation in the Program is solely to legally advertise our website to receive a commission on products purchased by individuals referred to Cirem by your own website or personal referrals.
If you have any questions, please email us at [email protected].
This agreement describes the terms and conditions for participation in the Cirem Affiliate Program (Program). In this agreement, the term “Affiliate” refers to you (the applicant), and “Cirem” refers to a California Corporation, with whom you are entering into this agreement. By applying to this Program you confirm that you have read the Agreement and accept the terms and conditions.
According to our sole and absolute discretion, we reserve the right to approve or reject ANY Affiliate Program Application. You will have no legal recourse against us for the rejection of your Affiliate Program Application.
There are two types of Affiliate Program with Cirem: General (for bloggers, social media influencers, brand ambassadors, celebrities, etc.) and Business (for clients with a clinic/practice who don’t want to stock products in house). Cirem determines which category an Affiliate will be placed under.
For a sale to generate a commission to an Affiliate, the customer must complete the order form and remit full payment for the product. Sales can only be made to addresses in the United States of America. Commissions will only be paid on sales that are made when the customer clicks through qualified, correctly structured affiliate links. Properly coded links are the sole responsibility of the affiliate. Commissions can be viewed on the Affiliate Dashboard.
As an Affiliate you can use your own link to purchase products for yourself only. This effectively grants you a discount equivalent to your commission for your own purchases. However, self-generated commissions will not be paid out where a discount coupon has been applied to your order.
Commissions are calculated according to the category the Affiliate is placed in. Commission rates are determined by Cirem and are communicated to Affiliates when they successfully apply to and are accepted into, the Program.
Affiliates in either category will move to a higher commission structure after achieving specific targeted sales, as communicated directly between Cirem and the Affiliate on acceptance into the Program.
Commissions and sales targets to achieve higher commissions are determined solely by Cirem and may be changed at any time. Such changes will be notified to the Affiliate at least 14 days prior to the change taking place.
Commissions will be paid on the 15th of the month for commissions earned in the preceding calendar month. Payments will generally be paid out via check or as a credit towards future purchases, depending on the Affiliate’s preference.
Payments will only be sent for transactions that have been successfully completed.
Suppose a customer requests a refund for a transaction for which the Affiliate has earned and already been paid commissions. In that case, any commissions earned on the refund amount will be deducted from the Affiliate’s balance. Transactions that result in chargebacks or refunds prior to the Affiliate receiving commission for them will not be paid out.
Affiliates may use graphic and text links both on your website and within your email messages. You may also advertise the Cirem site in online and offline classified ads, magazines, and newspapers. However, you may never advertise any sale or special prices in any online or offline manner. (See coupons section below.)
You may use the graphics and text provided by us; however, logos and other assets cannot be modified, whether they be for Cirem. The Affiliate does not gain any trademark, copyright, or any other rights to these materials.
The Affiliate will never represent themselves, Cirem, Clean Cosmetics, LLC, or their relationship with Cirem falsely or misleadingly.
The Affiliate will not engage in distributing an unsolicited bulk email (spam) mentioning or referencing Cirem.
Affiliates must promote the Cirem brand within FTC guidelines, with regard to disclosing that she/he is being compensated by Cirem. Affiliates must include disclosure statements within any and all website pages, blogs, social media posts, etc., in which they endorse or review Cirem products.
Cirem occasionally offers coupons to select affiliates and to our newsletter subscribers. If the Affiliate is not pre-approved / assigned a branded coupon, then she/he is not allowed to promote the coupon. Below are the terms that apply for any affiliate who is considering the promotion of our products about a deal or coupon:
