Affiliates Terms

For clarity and ease of reference, any capitalized terms used in these terms and conditions shall be defined in the glossary. You may consult the glossary section of this agreement to find the detailed definitions of such terms.

If you do not accept these Referral Program Terms in full, you are not authorized to participate in the Referral Program in any manner. Participation in the Referral Program in any manner constitutes full and complete acceptance of these Referral Program Terms.

Please be aware that these terms are subject to periodic updates. In some instances, we may opt to replace the entire set of terms, especially if there are modifications to the Affiliate Program, its discontinuation, or its integration into an existing program, including our partner programs. In the event of any updates or replacements, we, or our designated Affiliate Dashboard, will provide you with notification through electronic means, such as in-app notifications or emails. Should you disagree with the updated or replaced terms, you have the option to terminate your affiliation as described below.

Affiliate Dashboard

Affiliate Acceptance

Any User can apply to participate in the Affiliate Program through our Affiliate Dashboard. The Affiliate Dashboard provides you with essential tools and resources to track and monitor your Affiliate Leads and Referral Commissions seamlessly, and is an integral part of the Affiliate Program. Once you complete an application to become an Affiliate, we will review your application and notify you whether you have been accepted to participate in the Affiliate Program, or not. Before we accept an application, we may want to review your application with you, so we may reach out to you for more information. We may require that you complete certain requirements or certification(s) before we accept your application. If we do not notify you that you are accepted to participate in the Affiliate Program within thirty (30) days from your application, your application is considered to be rejected.

If you are accepted to participate in the Affiliate Program, then upon notification of acceptance, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply in full force and effect, until terminated, pursuant to the terms set forth below. You will comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement at all times, including any applicable Affiliate Program Policies.

The Affiliate Link is a unique URL that you can use to link to the Univext website. This URL is generated by the Affiliate Dashboard and is specific to your account. You must use this URL to create a link from your website, social media, or other digital channels to the Univext website. The Affiliate Link is how we track your Affiliate Leads and attribute them to your account. It redirects to your personal Affiliate Page.

Affiliate Page

The Affilite Page is a custom landing page created by Univext to help you promote the Univext website. The Affiliate Page is specific to your account and is accessible through your Affiliate Link. The Affiliate Page is where your Affiliate Leads can sign up and get a Free Trial of the Univext Platform. The Affiliate Page is also where your Affiliate Leads can learn more about the Univext Platform and its features. By participating in the Affiliate Program, you grant us permission to use your name, username, and avatar from your Univext profile to create your personalized landing page. This page will serve as a promotional tool for your Affiliate activities.

Upon landing on the Affiliate Page, any Visitor will be associated with a 30-day tracking cookie. This tracking mechanism enables Affiliates to potentially generate revenues or acquire Affiliate Leads based on the Visitor's interaction on the Univext Platform within the designated timeframe. However, it's important to note that while this cookie facilitates tracking, Univext cannot provide assurances that users will retain, accept, or refrain from deleting the cookie during this period. The usage and persistence of the tracking cookie are ultimately contingent upon the user's actions and preferences.

Non-Exclusivity

This Agreement does not create an exclusive agreement between you and us. Both you and we will have the right to recommend similar products and services of third parties and to work with other parties in connection with the design, sale, installation, implementation and use of similar services and products of third parties.

Rewards and Commissions

Affiliate Leads

Affiliate Leads, within the context of the Affiliate Program, refer to users who have successfully registered on the Univext platform through your designated Affiliate Link. These users are attributed to your Account, and any subsequent interactions or engagements they have with the platform are subject to the terms and conditions of the Affiliate Program. Your role as an Affiliate is pivotal in facilitating the growth of our educational community, and Affiliate Leads represent the tangible outcome of your dedication in introducing new participants to the Univext experience.

Affiliate Commissions

Affiliate Commissions, within the context of the Affiliate Program, refer to the monetary rewards you receive for successfully referring new users to the Univext platform. These rewards are calculated based on the number of Affiliate Leads you generate, and the subsequent actions they take on the platform. The Affiliate Commissions you receive are subject to the terms and conditions of the Affiliate Program. Participating Affiliates within the Affiliate Program stand to receive commissions amounting to 10% on the initial successful payment made for a Subscription on the Univext Platform by an Affiliate Lead who was referred through their dedicated Affiliate Link. Upon the successful completion of payment for a Subscription, the Affiliate shall be entitled to a commission equivalent to 10% of the inaugural payment sum. This commission serves as an appreciative gesture, recognizing the Affiliate's pivotal contribution to nurturing the Univext community and propelling its expansion.

However, it is important to note that these commission structures are subject to revision. Univext reserves the right to modify these commission rates without prior notice. It is recommended to regularly review the prevailing commission terms to stay informed about any potential updates.

Commission & Payment

Affiliate Commissions are paid out on a monthly basis, and are subject to a minimum threshold of $10. If the Affiliate's commission balance is below the minimum threshold, the Affiliate will not be eligible for a payout. The Affiliate's commission balance will be carried over to the following month, and will be paid out once the minimum threshold is met. The Affiliate's commission balance is calculated based on the number of Affiliate Leads they have generated, and the subsequent actions these Affiliate Leads have taken on the platform. The Affiliate's commission balance is subject to the terms and conditions of the Affiliate Program.

In order to receive payment under this Agreement, you must have: (i) agreed to the terms of this Agreement (generally completed through the Affiliate Tool); (ii) completed all steps necessary to create your Affiliate Account in the Affiliate Dashboard in accordance with our directions, (iii) have a valid and up-to-date payment method in the Affiliate Dashboard with such account (iv) completed any and all required tax documentation in order for the Affiliate Dashboard to process any payments that may be owed to you.

Affiliate Lead Ownership and Usage

While Affiliates play a crucial role in driving these leads, it's important to understand that the ownership and utilization of these leads reside with Univext. Affiliates do not hold ownership rights over the Affiliate Leads, and the Affiliate Leads are considered part of Univext's User database. Univext reserves the right to use, analyze, market to, communicate with, and engage these Affiliate Leads as deemed appropriate for the advancement of the platform's services and offerings. Affiliates are granted commissions based on successful payments made by Affiliate Leads, in recognition of their promotional efforts. However, the Affiliate does not possess exclusive rights to these leads, and their utilization and treatment fall within the realm of Univext's discretion.

Violation, Misconduct, and Program Termination

Univext is committed to maintaining a fair and productive environment for all participants in the Affiliate Program. Affiliates are expected to conduct themselves ethically and professionally while promoting our educational services. In the event of violation of program terms, misconduct, or engagement in activities that could compromise the integrity of the program or Univext's reputation, we reserve the right to take appropriate action.

Such actions may include, but are not limited to:

  • Withholding commission payments temporarily or indefinitely;
  • Restricting or limiting an Affiliate's access to program privileges;
  • Suspending or terminating an Affiliate's participation in the program.

These measures will be implemented at Univext's discretion, and they aim to safeguard the Affiliate Program's credibility and maintain the trust of our user community. We encourage all Affiliates to align with our values and guidelines to ensure a positive experience for all stakeholders involved.

Univext values consistency in its brand image and strives to ensure a cohesive experience for all users. To support Affiliates in their promotional efforts, we provide a range of graphics, logos, images, and videos that can be used for marketing purposes.

  4. Logo Usage: Univext logos should be used as provided, without alterations or additions. Affiliates are not authorized to create their own versions of the Univext logo.

  5. Consistent Branding: To ensure brand consistency, Affiliates are advised not to replace or change any Univext Content, including logos, images, videos, and other visual assets, with their own materials.
