Conditions of the Pioneer Program
(Version: PP20100308.)
- The PIONEER PROGRAM (herein called the "Pioneer Program" or the "Program") is a promotional campaign aimed at improving the popularity of the HOMESmarketing.com system ("HOMESmarketing" or "the system"). In return to the participants, HOMESmarketing is offering rewards to show its appreciation, in accordance with these Conditions of the Pioneer Program ("Conditions").
- BECOMING A SUBSCRIBER:
- PERSONAL SUBSCRIBER: An individual can pay a subscription fee to become a subscriber (herein is also referred to as a "Personal Subscriber").
- ENTITY SUBSCRIBER: An organization can become a subscriber free of charge if invited by an existing subscriber and such invitation is forwarded to and duly processed by HOMESmarketing (herein is also referred to as an "Entity Subscriber").
- If not specified, the term "Subscriber" shall refer to either a Personal Subscriber or an Entity Subscriber, or any subscriber in general. A participant agreeing to become a Subscriber to the Program or using or enjoying features or rewards offered by the Program agrees to be bound by these Conditions.
- REFERRING PARTIES: An individual or entity may be referred to the Program by an existing Subscriber. For the purposes of these Conditions, a participant is deemed to be referred to the Program only if the participant has quoted a valid reference (either the Subscriber ID or the registered email address) of the referring Subscriber at the time of subscription to the Program. Under this circumstance,
- the referring Subscriber shall be called the DIRECT REFERRER of the new Subscriber;
- if the Direct Referrer has joined the Program because of an earlier referring Subscriber, then that earlier referring Subscriber shall be called the INDIRECT REFERRER of the new Subscriber.
- SUBSCRIPTION FEE: The subscription fee for joining the Program will be posted on the page where individuals apply to join the Program, and is subject to change without notice. Discount fee will apply if an individual is referred to the Program by an existing Subscriber, as prescribed by section 3 hereof.
- ADVERTISING SERVICES: Upon joining the Program, a Personal Subscriber will be issued a unique Pass Code that would allow the holder to post unlimited number of ads on the system at no extra cost (valid for USER EDITABLE CLASSIFIED ADS only). The Pass Code is valid until Dec 31, 2016. The issuance and use of the Pass Code is subject to the terms of the Conditions of Use of a Pass Code. Pass Code will not be issued to an Entity Subscriber.
- REFERRAL FEES: If an individual pays to join the Program with the introduction of a referring Subscriber, HOMESmarketing will pay referral fee in the following manners:
- The Direct Referrer of the new Subscriber shall receive referral fee equivalent to 20% of the initial subscription fee paid by the new Subscriber.
- The Indirect Referrer shall receive referral fee equivalent to 10% of the initial subscription fee paid by the new Subscriber.
- If there is no Indirect Referrer, the Direct Referrer shall receive an extra 10% referral fee.
- Referral fees will be paid half yearly, with cut-off dates of March 31 and September 30 of a fiscal year, respectively. For year 2016, the cut-off dates will be March 31 and December 31, respectively.
- Referral fees will be issued in CASH or otherwise in a form (e.g., gifts or other tangible goods) that is required to comply with applicable laws in jurisdictions in Canada and/or in the United States of America. Where applicable, recipients of referral fees under this Program shall comply with applicable taxation requirements before any referral fee is released by HOMESmarketing.
- TERM of the Program: The Program is currently in effect, and will expire at the end of Dec 31, 2016. All benefits to the Subscribers under this Program shall thereupon also cease, except that any earned referral fee as of Dec 31, 2016 will still be paid out in its usual manner.
- In the event of disputes HOMESmarketing shall have the final decisions on the interpretation of these Conditions and final decisions on situations or circumstances where these Conditions have not yet covered.
