13. Affiliates may cancel their account or terminate the Affiliate Agreement with Q-Link at any time and for any reason upon providing us with written notice. Notwithstanding termination, however, the affiliate agrees that the provisions related to the non-use of Q-Link marks (paragraph 8) shall survive such termination.

18. The cookie period for the Q-Link affiliate program is at least 90 days but not more than 365 days. After this cookie expires, the affiliate referred visitor must come back to the affiliate’s website and again click on the affiliate URL/link in order for an affiliate commission to be earned. Under normal circumstances, though subject to change without notice and to technical limitations, anomalies and the like, affiliates that referred a successful order in the past will receive future commissions if that same customer returns to our site and places subsequent orders, as long as said customer is able to be identified through the use the same email or IP address as the original order.

19. Commissions may not be reported or recorded by referred visitors who have set their cookie protection settings to a high standard which may block and prevent the necessary cookies from being installed thus preventing the tracking and accrual of commissions.

22. Commission balances meeting the minimum $100 payout threshold will be distributed in USD to the PayPal email address provided at registration within the first week of each month, subject to the following policies: Commission payouts are delayed approximately 90 days from the date of each referred sale/transaction, as this is the period of time customers have to return Q-Link products under Q-Link's official 90-Day Money Back Guarantee. Affiliate referred orders that are returned by customers for a partial or full refund will result in either a cancellation (non-payment) of those commissions or be applied against future commission payouts.

25. In the event we receive and process an affiliate referred order found to be illegitimate or fraudulent, we will cancel the order entirely and reduce your commission accordingly. Q-Link reserves the right to decide whether or not a referred visitor will be serviced, sold to or otherwise catered to.
