AdHooked LLC reserves the right to make changes to the Site and these Terms and Conditions at any time. Affiliate's continued use of the Site after any such modification and notification thereof (which may be provided by e-mail to the email address provided in the course of Affiliate's registration with AdHooked LLC) shall constitute Affiliate's consent to such modification.

These Terms and Conditions for Affiliates are effective as of 03th December 2008

1. Approval of Affiliate

Registration with AdHooked LLC shall not confer any right on Affiliate to market or promote any Programs (as defined under section 2) made available by AdHooked LLC on the Site on behalf of its clients (the "Advertisers"). Participation by Affiliate in the AdHooked LLC affiliate lead generation program is subject to review and approval by AdHooked LLC. All prospective affiliates need official approval from AdHooked LLC before they can become Affiliates. Official approval requires meeting the criteria listed under Sections 1.1 and 1.2 below, however approval is not automatically granted upon fulfillment of said criteria. AdHooked LLC reserves the right to withhold or refuse approval for any reason at AdHooked LLC sole discretion. Once Affiliate has been accepted into the Program, Affiliate's continued right to participate is conditioned upon Affiliate's ongoing compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Failure of the Affiliate to observe the terms and conditions of this Agreement will disqualify Affiliate from participating in the Program. Affiliate may re-qualify for program upon proof of compliance with terms and conditions of this Agreement, subject to approval by AdHooked LLC. Affiliate shall promptly notify AdHooked LLC in the event of a material change in its business practices or strategy. Approval of a Affiliate can be withdrawn by AdHooked LLC, at any time for any reason.

E-mail addresses may not be obtained by the use of a program for random generation of e-mail addresses, and/or "scraping" websites or online services. Affiliate must have full opt-in data for all recipients in its database.

3. Monitoring

AdHooked LLC shall be constantly monitoring, on its own or with the assistance of third parties, the Affiliates for compliance with these Terms and Conditions, without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

3.2. Each unsubscribe list furnished to a Affiliate shall be separately and technologically identified so that AdHooked LLC will be able to ensure that each Affiliate is not disseminating or otherwise using the unsubscribe list other than in a manner required by applicable law.

AdHooked LLC grants Affiliate a revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive limited license to use the Site (including any Specified Advertising Materials posted thereon) and any data, reports, information or analyses arising out of such use (the "Site Data") solely for the purpose of marketing or promoting the Programs hereunder and subject to these Terms and Conditions and the applicable Program Terms. If a Affiliate also maintains its own network of affiliates, such Affiliate may not provide the Program to its affiliates, without the prior written consent of AdHooked LLC. Under such conditions, Affiliate will require its affiliates to agree to and comply with these Terms and Conditions. If a Affiliate fails to adhere to the foregoing requirements, in addition to any other remedies available to AdHooked LLC, Affiliate shall forfeit its rights to any amounts owed by AdHooked LLC to Affiliate.

Affiliate may only access the Site via web browser, e-mail or in a manner approved by AdHooked LLC. Affiliate will not attempt in any way to alter, modify, eliminate, conceal, or otherwise render inoperable or ineffective the Site tags, source codes, links, pixels, modules or other data provided by or obtained from AdHooked LLC that allows AdHooked LLC to measure ad performance and provide its service.

Affiliate agrees that Affiliate will not approach or attempt to engage in a contract with any of AdHooked LLC`s clients (each such client, individually a "Client" and all such clients, collectively "Clients") directly or indirectly via a Client's ad agency, broker or any other person or entity. AdHooked LLC will promptly reply in writing to any inquiries received from Affiliate regarding the status of any person or entity as a AdHooked LLC Client so as to aid Affiliate in its efforts to comply with the non-solicitation provisions of this Agreement. Because AdHooked LLC will be irreparably harmed by Affiliate's conduct, and because the true extent of such harm will be impossible to quantify, monetary damages will not be an adequate remedy for any such conduct. Affiliate agrees that AdHooked LLC shall be entitled to injunctive relief precluding Affiliate from taking or continuing any action or conduct in violation of this provision, to be issued by any court of competent jurisdiction upon a showing of any such violative conduct by Affiliate.

All Program related websites will contain links ("Links") provided by AdHooked LLC directing traffic to product sales web pages served by AdHooked LLC. Affiliate's selection of entities to be included on any such website is also subject to AdHooked LLC's review and approval, of which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
