2. Links on Your Website or Third Party Websites
Upon acceptance into the Program, we will make available to you Qualifying Links that are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. A "Qualifying Link" is a link from a website to our Site using one of the Universal Record Locators ("URLs") or graphic links provided by California Closets, the Impact Radius platform or by other means selected by us for use in the Program. All Qualifying Links must link directly and exclusively to californiaclosets.com or californiaclosets.ca. California Closets must approve each and every website that links to our Site through a Qualifying Link. If you use a Qualifying Link to link a website to our Site without seeking explicit authorization, your continued use of that Qualifying Link shall be considered a breach of this Agreement. However, continued use of the Qualifying Link will nonetheless subject such websites to this Agreement.

The Qualifying Links will serve to identify your website as a member of the Program and will establish a link from a website to our Site. All Qualifying Links that you will use in the Program will be provided to you from the Impact Radius platform or by other means selected by us. You also agree that you will display on the website containing the Qualifying Link only those logos, trade names, trademarks, service marks, graphic images and similar identifying material ("Licensed Materials") that are provided by us or by the Impact Radius platform, and you will substitute such images with any new materials provided by us or the Impact Radius platform from time to time throughout the term of this Agreement.

Only valid Qualifying Links will be tracked for purposes of determining Referral Fees that you may be eligible to receive on Qualifying Leads (as defined below) generated through your participation in the Program. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Qualifying Leads” means a lead that enters a valid zip code within our valid business territories with the United States or Canada, valid email address and valid phone number. If the lead enters false information where a California Closets representative cannot contact the person using the provided email and phone number after at least two (2) attempts, the lead commission will be reversed. A previous lead or a previous customer within the last six (6) months will not qualify as a “Qualifying Lead.”

Only Qualifying Links may be used to link a website to areas within our Site. You may not link directly to californiaclosets.com or californiaclosets.ca without use of a Qualifying Link. You may post as many Qualifying Links to our Site as you like on a website, provided that you ensure that each website containing a Qualifying Link posted by you meets the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, that such website does not fall into the "unsuitable website" category described in Section 1 above, does not fall into the "prohibitions" set forth in Section 3 below, and you are and remain liable for all websites on which you post a Qualifying Link in accordance with Section 10 below. The position, prominence and nature of links on a website shall comply with any requirements specified in this Agreement but otherwise will be in your discretion.

You acknowledge that, by participating in the Program and placing a link to californiaclosets.com or californiaclosets.ca (or any category page therein) on any website through use of a Qualifying Link, we may receive information from or about visitors to such website or communications between such website and those visitors. Your participation in the Program constitutes your specific and unconditional consent to and authorization for our access to, receipt, storage, use, and disclosure of any and all such information, consistent with the policies and procedures set forth in our Privacy Policy located at:
