1 Appointment and code terms
Company appoints Affiliate on a nonexclusive, independent contractor basis to promote eligible Hippie Sips and Hippie Drops products. Company controls code issuance and administration. The customer discount applies to regular purchases and initial and recurring subscription charges at the applicable subscription price. Codes do not stack with other promotions unless authorized. Wholesale, resale, gift cards, and self-purchases are excluded unless Company approves otherwise in writing. Company may restrict products or territories prospectively for legal, inventory, or fraud reasons, but will honor discounts already promised to subscription customers according to their disclosed terms. Affiliate has no authority to bind Company or promise unapproved prices, benefits, or product claims.
2 Commission calculation and attribution
Commission equals the agreed rate multiplied by product revenue actually collected after discounts, less returns, refunds, cancellations, and chargebacks; taxes and shipping are excluded. Regular orders qualify when the custom code is applied at checkout. Subscriptions initiated with the code remain attributed for successful recurring charges during this agreement, without requiring code reentry. No lifetime commission or commission after termination is promised. Company’s transaction records govern absent a demonstrated error. Affiliate must raise statement discrepancies within 60 days of receipt, without waiving rights that applicable law prohibits waiving. Fraudulent, duplicate, manipulated, unpaid, or prohibited purchases earn no commission.
3 Monthly payouts and election
Company will pay the prior calendar month’s earned commissions and provide an itemized statement by the fifth calendar day of each month, with no minimum threshold. Affiliate chooses US dollars, product, or both. Elections or changes must arrive in writing by the last day of the earning month; otherwise the prior election continues, defaulting to US dollars. Cash is sent by the agreed payment method; Company will initiate early when needed for weekends or holidays. Affiliate must supply accurate payment, delivery, and reasonably requested tax details; delays caused by missing information are payable promptly once corrected.
Product compensation is valued dollar for dollar at Company’s public one-time retail prices unless separately agreed in writing. Company confirms the selection and valuation before applying commissions and dispatches product by the fifth. Company covers standard shipping; shipping and applicable sales tax do not reduce commissions. Unavailable or legally undeliverable product and unused balances are paid in US dollars by that deadline unless Affiliate requests carryover. Later refunds or chargebacks may be offset against future commissions with a statement; any overpayment remaining at termination must be repaid within 30 days after written documentation. Company may hold only genuinely disputed or reasonably suspected fraudulent amounts during a documented investigation and pay all undisputed amounts on time.
4 Advertising compliance and prohibited conduct
Affiliate must be 21 or older and direct THC product advertising only to adults 21 and older in lawful markets. Affiliate must comply with applicable laws, FTC disclosure requirements, and platform rules; disclose cash and product compensation clearly with each endorsement, including within videos and periodically in live streams; and give truthful opinions. Affiliate may not make unsupported medical claims, promote unsafe use, market to minors, conceal product facts, buy fake engagement, send unlawful unsolicited messages, or use deceptive redirects. No coupon-site distribution, trademark bidding, paid advertising, impersonation, or subaffiliate delegation is allowed without written consent. Company may require preapproval of materials and correction or removal within 24 hours of notice; approval does not excuse Affiliate’s independent misconduct.
5 Intellectual property and promotional content
Company retains all rights to its trademarks, codes, customer relationships, and supplied materials. Affiliate receives a revocable, nontransferable license to use approved materials only during this agreement. Affiliate retains original content ownership but grants Company a worldwide, royalty-free, nonexclusive right to post, repost, share, reproduce, display, reasonably edit, and collaborate on any Affiliate-created post, story, reel, video, or other content created during this agreement that uses, depicts, tags, or mentions Hippie Sips or Hippie Drops. This includes both brands’ organic and paid marketing and use of Affiliate’s name, handle, and likeness as included in the content, during the term and for 12 months afterward. Affiliate authorizes Company to request coauthor or collaboration placement and agrees to accept reasonable platform collaboration invitations for such content where supported. Edits may not materially misrepresent Affiliate’s views. Separate consent is required for account access or advertising through Affiliate’s account. Affiliate warrants ownership or permission for included music, images, appearances, and other third-party material. Affiliate may not register Company-like domains, handles, or trademarks.
6 Confidentiality and personal information
Affiliate must protect nonpublic pricing, sales reports, customer data, credentials, and business plans; use them solely for this agreement; and promptly report unauthorized access. Disclosure required by law is permitted with advance notice where lawful. On termination, Affiliate must return or delete Company information except records legally required to be retained. Confidentiality survives for three years, and protection of trade secrets and personal data continues as required by law. Public information, lawfully obtained information, and independently developed information are excluded.
7 Term renewal and termination
This agreement begins on the Effective Date and continues for twelve (12) months. It automatically renews for successive twelve-month terms unless either party provides written notice of nonrenewal at least thirty (30) days before the current term ends. Either party may still terminate under this section. Renewal does not change commission rates, customer discounts, or other terms unless both parties agree in writing.
Either party may end this agreement on seven days’ written notice. Company may immediately suspend or terminate for material breach, fraudulent activity, unlawful promotion, intellectual property misuse, or conduct reasonably likely to cause material harm to either brand. Company may temporarily disable a code while investigating suspected abuse, without forfeiting legitimate earned commissions. Affiliate must immediately stop new promotions, code distribution, and use of Company materials after termination and remove noncompliant content on request. Qualifying amounts collected through termination remain payable by the fifth of the following month; later subscription charges earn no commission. Company may discontinue the program on the same notice terms. Termination does not cancel accrued payment, repayment, confidentiality, content license, or dispute obligations.
8 Indemnification and limits of liability
To the extent permitted by law, Affiliate will defend, indemnify, and hold Company and its officers, employees, and agents harmless from third-party claims, reasonable legal fees, and losses caused by Affiliate’s breach, unlawful advertising, infringement, negligence, or willful misconduct. This does not cover losses caused by Company’s own negligence, misconduct, product defects, or unaltered Company-supplied unlawful claims. Company will give prompt notice and reasonable cooperation; no settlement may impose liability or admissions on Company without consent. To the extent permitted by law, Company is not liable for indirect, consequential, or lost-profit damages, and its aggregate liability is limited to commissions paid or payable during the preceding 12 months. These limits do not reduce earned commission obligations or liability for fraud, willful misconduct, personal injury, or liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
9 Governing law and complete agreement
Ohio law governs, excluding conflict rules and subject to mandatory applicable law. The parties consent to courts of competent jurisdiction in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, except where law requires otherwise. They will first attempt resolution in good faith for 30 days; either may seek urgent injunctive relief sooner. Affiliate is responsible for its taxes; Company will make required reports. No earnings guarantee, employment, agency, exclusivity, or minimum posting duty is created. Changes to rates or material terms require both parties’ written acceptance, including email, and apply prospectively. Notices go to the emails below. This agreement supersedes prior affiliate discussions; invalid provisions are severable. Electronic signatures and counterparts are effective.
