An affiliate who ignores warnings to cease and desist any activities we deem negligent, inappropriate, or harmful to All Star Adventures, LLC and/or other affiliates will be terminated.

We will be solely responsible for processing every order for our products. Customers will use our secure online ordering process. Order forms, payment processing, shipping, cancellations, returns, and related customer service are our responsibility.
All of our rules, operating procedures and policies regarding customer orders and accounts will apply to orders we receive through special links on your site. We reserve the right to reject any order that does not comply with our rules, operating procedures and policies.
Every customer who buys a product through this program is deemed to be a customer of ours. You do not have the authority to make or accept any offer on our behalf. All our policies regarding customer orders, including product availability, pricing and problem resolution, will apply to these customers. We are not responsible for any representations made by you which contradict our policies.
** You CAN order our products for your OWN PERSONAL USE through YOUR affiliate link! (This, in effect, gives you a 8% "discount"!)
4) Links
We will provide you with a unique identifying URL for you to link to. Each sale or referral that is generated from this URL will be attributed to you. You will have access to your own private section to check your stats in “real time”. Your links to the unique URL can be text links or banner links, or a combination of the two, at your sole discretion. If you choose banner links, you must use our banners provided within the program console. We will provide you with a URL of all our banners, from which you can freely choose. You may add as many links to All Star Adventures, LLC, or remove such links, at anytime and without prior approval from us.
** Inactive affiliates will be removed from participation in the Program. Inactive means little or no "click-throughs" via your banner/text links, as monitored via our affiliate program administrative panel, for a period of sixty (60) days. And/or, non-placement of affiliate banners/text ads. We will contact you after thirty (30) days of "inactivity". Efforts will be made to help and encourage your participation in the Program.
We will provide you with instructions on how to properly format the links. You are responsible for ensuring the links are formatted correctly. This will ensure accurate tracking of sales for credit to your account. Every effort will be made to ensure that our site is functional and available for customers referred to our site through your "affiliate link".
We have NO responsibilities with regard to your site. All Star Adventures, LLC shall have no liability for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages or any loss of revenue or profits arising under or with respect to this agreement or the program. In addition, All Star Adventures’ aggregate liability arising under or with respect to this agreement or the program shall in no event exceed total referral fees paid or payable to the affiliate under this agreement.
5) Referral Fees and Payment
We will pay you a starting referral fee of 8% of the standard trip price for any and all purchases made by a customer referred by your "affiliate link" through our banners or text links. This referral fee will increase as noted in the affiliate programs description. You shall be eligible for said referral fee when a booking referred from your site becomes “definite”. A booking becomes definite when a client has paid for the booked trip in full and 30 days or less remain prior to the trip’s departure date. The reason for this stipulation is that our clients can cancel their trip and get a full refund (minus a small processing fee) up until 30 days before their trip starts so we cannot pay out a referral fee to an affiliate until a client’s booking becomes non-refundable. All Star Adventures, LLC shall remit payment for all owed referrals at the beginning of each month, payable upon all definite bookings for the proceeding month.
Payment will be made in the form of a Paypal payment from us, paid in US dollars. We are not responsible for paying interest to Affiliates for accrued but not yet delivered referral fees. We are also not responsible for any fees that you might incur when accepting a payment from us via Paypal. If you are not familiar with Paypal, please contact us for further explanation.
6) Tracking of Sales
We will be solely responsible for tracking sales we make to customers who follow links from your website. We use OSI Affiliate Software. We record click through(s) from your site to our site for a period of 60 days. This means that even if a client books a trip with us 60 days after they originally clicked through to our site from your site, you will still receive a full referral fee.
Statements of your sales activity will be available to you in "real time" with a special URL that we assign to you. This information will be available 24 hours per day and 7 days per week and will be accessible using a password and username that we assign you. Your statement will detail all sales that have been generated from your website. It will also specify which sales are definite and which sales are still pending.
Only two entities may access your stats and affiliate information. That would be you, and us, All Star Adventures, LLC
7) Terms of the Agreement
The term of this agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your affiliate program application and your placement of our banner or textual link on your site and will end when terminated by either party. Either you or we may terminate this agreement at any time, by giving the other party written notice of termination. This will be in the form of "email". You can only earn referral fees on sales occurring during the term. We will never withhold any payment due. Payment of monies owed you will be payable on the same schedule as stated above for commission payment. Upon termination of this agreement, the former Affiliate must remove all Affiliate links and graphics from its web site, and refrain from publishing same in any manner whatsoever.
8) Income Tax Liability
You must understand and agree that you are acting as an independent contractor and as such will be responsible for your own Income Taxes and any other tax liabilities that affect the sales of our products in your country.
9) Modification
We may modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, at any time and in our sole discretion, by posting a new agreement on our site. Any modifications will ALSO be notified, by email, to all participating affiliates. If any modification is unacceptable to you, you may terminate this agreement. Your continued participation in the program following notification of our new program will constitute binding acceptance of the change.
10) Relationship of Parties
You and We are independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement will create any partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, sales representative or employment relationship between the parties. You will have no authority to make or accept any offers or representations on our behalf. You will not make any statement, whether on your site or otherwise, that reasonably would contradict anything written here.
11) Conflicts and Disputes
As with any program, a conflict or dispute may occasionally arise due to tracking, orders, commission calculation, performance issues and appeals regarding "termination for cause". Below is outlined who to contact and how to handle any such situation.
» If a concern should arise, send an email stating your full name, your affiliate ID, your address and state the specifics of your concern. Include any dates or numbers that apply. We will investigate immediately and will reply as soon as possible.
» Though we will be more than willing to settle the dispute in as fair a manner as possible we realize this situation may arise. In this case we will be open to mediation or arbitration to settle the matter.
» We have NOT pre-selected a mediator or arbitrator. Should one be needed we will select a non-biased, third party moderator.
