If the End User used another computer to create an account; left SecureTrust Website and re-entered SecureTrust Website through other affiliate's link before creating an account; or deleted the tracking cookie before creating an account, then the Company will not pay You any revenue share on any subscriptions purchased by that End User.

In any event, you will be entitled to the Commission only after thirty (31) days following actual payment by the End User.
The default commission rates are displayed on SecureTrust Website (www.securetrust.io/affiliates). We remain free to change the displayed rates at any time without notice to You.
If mutually agreed with the Affiliate, we may apply rates that are different from the default commission rates. In that case, the mutually agreed rate prevails on the default commission rate.
You may elect to receive the commission in the form of a PayPal payment, or by wire transfer.

The Company shall send payments to You (in US Dollars) using the payment method You have selected. If no payment method is selected, the Company shall not be under any obligation to make payment to You. The Company's only liability is to send payment using the details provided by You and the Company shall have no liability for lost payment because of details being incorrectly entered by You.
All payments or third-party’s fees charged by the banking institutions, PayPal or other payment provider are Your responsibility and are not incurred or paid by the Company (and the Company may offset such fees from the Commissions paid to You). To the extent required by applicable law, the commission shall be paid against duly issued tax invoice, and the Company may deduct or set off from any payment due to You any amount as required by applicable law (including without limitation, VAT).
Refunds & Credits. The Company shall be entitled to set off against any subsequent commission, the amounts paid to You in respect of proceeds which were subsequently refunded, credited or charged back. If the balance of commission due to You falls below zero at any time, then Your account will be suspended (and You will not be eligible to receive commissions for Qualified Subscription during such suspension) until You deliver to the Company sufficient funds to bring Your account balance to zero. If You fail to bring Your account balance to zero within sixty (60) days of receiving notice that the balance has fallen below zero, the Company may terminate your participation on the Program.
Taxes & Charges. You shall be solely responsible for payment of any and all national, state, and local taxes and charges arising from or imposed on the payments made to You by the Company.
