SlingEZee.com Affiliate Agreement

The following terms and conditions shall govern your participation in the SlingEZee.com Affiliate Program (“Affiliate Program”). This Agreement is entered into by and between you ("you"), the Affiliate, and Baby Holdings, Inc. ("we," "us" or "our"), which is a company that operates the retail commerce site on the Internet at www.slingezee.com ("SlingEZee.com"). By clicking on the "Join (I Agree to the Terms)" button, you agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions contained in this SlingEZee.com Affiliate Program Agreement ("Agreement"). This Agreement supersedes any and all prior and contemporaneous agreements whether oral or written by and between you and us with respect to any and all SlingEZee.com Affiliate Program(s).

I. Enrollment in the Program

To begin the enrollment process, you will submit a complete Program application via the SlingEZee.com site. At this time we are only accepting affiliates that have a United States mailing address. We will evaluate your application in good faith and will notify you of its acceptance or rejection. We may reject your application if we determine (in our sole discretion) that your web or blog site is unsuitable for the Program. Please note that a web or blog site is not required for the program as embedding the affiliate links in email is also an acceptable method of using the program. Unsuitable sites include, but are not limited to, those that:

  • promote sexually explicit materials
  • promote violence
  • promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, or age
  • promote illegal activities
  • breach or otherwise violate intellectual property rights
  • include "SlingEZee," any variations or misspellings in their URL's to the left of the top-level domain name (e.g., ".com", ".net", ".uk", etc.) -- for example, a URL such as "slingezee.yourdomain.com", "slingeasy.com" or "slingezeeauctions.net" would be unsuitable.
  • By participating in the Program you agree that you will not engage in any such activities. If we reject your application, you are welcome to reapply to the Program at any time. You should also note that if we accept your application and your site is thereafter determined (in our sole discretion) to be unsuitable for the Program, we may terminate this Agreement. Participation in the Affiliate Program is limited to parties that lawfully can enter into and form contracts under applicable law. For example, minors (under 18) are not allowed to participate in the Program.

    II. Linking Your Site with SlingEZee.com

    We will provide you with an Affiliate Program ID number, graphics, examples and instructions on how to link your site to SlingEZee.com, utilizing your merchant ID number (the "Link(s)").

    Using your account on SlingEZee.com's Affiliate Central web page you will copy and paste SlingEZee.com Banner ads, Product ads, and/or Text Links (collectively referred to as “Links”) on your web site. You will be able to offer products available from SlingEZee.com to the visitors of your web site. You may use as many or as few links as you desire. We encourage (but do not require) you to include a link to the SlingEZee.com home page. You will be solely responsible for the placement of the Links and the appearance of your web site. You will be solely responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the graphics and Links. All links that you, the affiliate, wish to receive credit for must first be copied exactly as they appear in the Affiliate Central web pages hosted on our site. Please copy and paste the html, exactly as it has been generated, and do not attempt to modify it in anyway. If they are modified in any way SlingEZee.com may not be able to track your order(s) and we will not be responsible for any sales that may be lost.

    III. Use of SlingEZee™

    It is not permitted to use pay-per-click advertising using the trademark "SlingEZee" or any misspelling or variation thereof. Doing this will be cause for termination of this agreement. It is recognized that SlingEZee is a registered trademark of Baby Holdings, Inc. and will be treated in accordance with US law.

    IV. Order Processing

    We possess the sole right and responsibility to process product orders placed by customers (the "Customers") who access SlingEZee.com via the Links(s) in the session(s) commenced with their arrival at SlingEZee.com (the "Orders"), including, but not limited to, handling customer payments, packing orders, shipping customer orders, and customer service. Orders will be governed by our then-applicable terms and conditions of sale, and all agreements relating to such terms and conditions will be by and between the Customer and us. Those terms and conditions may be changed at any time for any reason, without notice to you. Selling prices for the products will be set by us at our sole discretion, and may be changed at any time. We recommend that you do not quote prices that are not dynamically generated from SlingEZee.com. Even with dynamic pricing we can only guarantee the price as it appears on our site with any conditions or limitations that may apply. We may refuse an order for any reason or for no reason at all.

    V. Referral Fees

    As payment for our advertisement on your web site, you will receive a percentage fee of 10%. The referral fee is based on the Net Selling Price of the item(s) shipped on an Order received from your URL and shipped by us ("Referral Fee"). The Net Selling Price is the unit price paid for the Order(s) by the Customer not including and less any charges or costs for shipping, handling, returns, gift-wrapping, taxes, service charges, or other charges incurred by the Customer. Gift certificates are also excluded from the "net selling price". If the customer returns an item for which you were paid a Commission, your Commissions due will be reduced by the same amount for the returned item(s). For a product sale to be eligible for a Referral Fee a customer must follow a Link (copied exactly from your Affiliate account) from your site to our site and place their order within 5 days. The customer must be willing to accept session and persistent cookies. We do not use 3rd party cookies.

    The Referral Fee will be credited to your Account, within 24 hours after the Order is shipped. The information is viewable on our web site in the Affiliate Central area of our site. Log in by clicking on the “Affiliate Login” link.

    Payments will be made monthly for all Fees in excess of $30.00. Specifically payments will be made within 45 days of the last day of the quarter for which the Fees have accrued. (For example, Referral Fees due for the month ending March 31 , will be paid by May 15.) This delay allows for any returns to be processed and closed before payments are issued. In the event Referral Fees are less than $30.00, your payment will be carried forward to the next pay period until such time as the payments are in excess of $30.00. In order to comply with certain IRS regulations, you will be asked to provide us with your social security number or taxpayer identification number and address if your total affiliate commissions within any federal tax year meet or exceed $600.00. This threshold is subject to change per any changes in federal tax law.
