By registering for the Planet VPN Affiliate Program (“Program”), you are agreeing to comply with the provided Terms of Service. Planet VPN retains the right to adjust and modify the Terms of Service occasionally without prior notice. Persisting in the Program post any modifications indicates your agreement to any such alterations. The most recent Terms of Service can always be found on this platform.

Non-adherence to any of the terms described below will result in the termination of your Membership and any outstanding affiliate commission payouts accumulated during any breach will be forfeited. Participation in the Affiliate Program is solely at your discretion and risk.

Membership Conditions

Participants must be a minimum of 18 years old to enter this Program. Only a single account is permitted. Owning multiple accounts is strictly forbidden. No individual or corporation can have more than one account. All content and activity on your platform is your responsibility. Engaging in the Affiliate Program for unlawful or unauthorized purposes (which includes infringement of copyright laws) is prohibited.

To initiate the registration procedure, you are required to submit a filled-out Program application on the Company’s Platform. This application should specify your platform and all anticipated facets of your Marketing Drive, including but not limited to, plans for email promotions, social media accounts or pages for promoting Company’s or a Joined Company’s services, and related details. Your application will be assessed by the Company, who will subsequently inform you of your application’s approval or rejection. The Company holds the right to reject your application for any reason, especially if they believe your platform or any part of your Marketing Drive is inappropriate for the Program.

1. Your Marketing Campaign. In line with this Contract’s conditions, we designate you as an independent referral source for select products and services offered by the Company. Accordingly, you commit to:

(a) Show, within your Marketing Campaign, the brands, trademarks, or promotions we provide, strictly adhering to the guidelines and using graphics we provide. All promotions must be linked to ensure a click directs to the specified URLs. Unauthorized displays of any link, trademark, or related advertisement are not permitted.

(b) Prominently showcase banner advertisements we supply on your platform. Regarding other promotions, display them in a manner that (i) grants them a top-tier position compared to third-party ads; (ii) doesn’t imply the Marketing Campaign is affiliated or maintained by the Company; (iii) prevents promotions from outranking any official Company listings; (iv) explicitly states, besides referrals, no official association exists between you and the Company.

(c) Notably, refrain from (i) using any of the Company’s trademarks, names, or logos as the primary identifier for your platform, blog, or social media; (ii) bidding on any keywords resembling the Company’s trademarks or names for “pay-per-click” campaigns; (iii) employing the Company’s URLs or domain names in “pay-per-click” campaigns or search placements; or (iv) labelling any promotion as “official” or similar.

(d) We retain the right to periodically review your platform and Marketing Campaign. We can also instruct you to halt the use of any promotion on your platform or Promotional Drive that doesn’t align with this section. Non-compliance may lead to termination of this Contract and forfeiture of any obligations to you.

2. Order Management. Planet VPN will oversee, authenticate, and finalize product orders from Customers who use links from the Promotions on your platform or in your Marketing Campaign to the Company’s Platform. The Company has the right to decline orders at its discretion, free from any obligation to compensate the Affiliate. The Company will monitor “Validated Sales” and provide aggregated anonymous sales summaries. The Company retains ownership of these reports, and you cannot share them without prior written consent. You must ensure the promotion link functions correctly; any tracking failures due to link issues are not the Company’s responsibility.

3. Validated Subscription Definition. A “Validated Subscription” transpires when a Customer: (a) utilizes the link from a Promotion to access Planet VPN’s Platform; (b) initiates the app download during the same visit using the designated system, successfully installs, and launches the app; and (c) proceeds to upgrade to a paid subscription within the app. Subscriptions activated within the 60-day cookie lifespan, even if the customer departs from and later returns to Planet VPN’s Platform, will be acknowledged if the action originated from the provided link. The Program is structured exclusively for promotional endeavors; personal use or unauthorized redistribution of the app is strictly forbidden. Participating in such behaviors may lead to the retention of referral bonuses or the discontinuation of this Contract.

4. Referral Payouts & Affiliate Compensation. The Company will compensate Affiliates as per the current payout schedule or as mutually agreed upon in a written format. Fees are paid for each “Validated Sale” active for thirty (30) days without refunds or chargebacks. For discounted sales, the duration is sixty (60) days. Monthly payouts, minus mandatory tax deductions, commence after sixty (60) days from the first “Validated Sale”. Payouts below $100.00 (USD) are held until they accumulate to this threshold or upon Contract termination.

5. Customer Relations and Pricing Dynamics. Customers procuring services from Planet VPN via this Program are considered clients of Planet VPN. Consequently, Planet VPN’s protocols, policies, and operational guidelines related to customer interactions and sales shall govern these customers. Planet VPN can revise its policies and procedures anytime. For instance, the pricing of Premium services under this Program is determined by Planet VPN’s own pricing strategies. While every effort is made to ensure accurate information, Planet VPN cannot vouch for constant service availability or pricing. The Affiliate understands that this Program doesn’t come with a dedicated privacy policy, allowing Planet VPN unrestricted use of information gathered from the Affiliate under this Agreement.

6. Promotional Codes. The Affiliate has permission to market promotional codes (“Discount Codes”) for service discounts. The Affiliate can only market services at discounted rates using Discount Codes explicitly crafted for them or promotional schemes revealed by Planet VPN. Unauthorized use or promotion of Discount Codes, including those from other participants or third parties, is prohibited. Transactions with unauthorized codes will not be deemed Valid Transactions and will not be compensated as such. Misuse of codes could lead to withheld commissions or Agreement termination at Planet VPN’s discretion.
