Pioneer Program - The Conditions
Conditions of the Pioneer Program
(Version: PP20111210.)
- The PIONEER PROGRAM (herein called the "Pioneer Program" or the "Program") is a promotional campaign aimed at advancing the popularity of the HOMESmarketing.com system ("HOMESmarketing" or "the System") through spreading of the word by participants of the Program. In return to the participants, HOMESmarketing is offering rewards in accordance with these Conditions of the Pioneer Program ("Conditions").
- BECOMING A SUBSCRIBER:
- FULL SUBSCRIBER: An individual or entity can become a Full Subscriber to the Program by paying a fee or by joining a promotional program offered by the System where subscription to this Program is a feature of that promotional program. Anyone can become a Full Subscriber in this manner with or without the introduction of any existing subscriber.
- SOCIAL SUBSCRIBER: An organization can become a subscriber free of charge if invited by an existing subscriber or by the System through its own promotional effort, and if such invitation is duly processed by HOMESmarketing. The organization succeeded in this process is referred to as a Social Subscriber.
- If not specified herein or elsewhere, the term "subscriber" shall refer to either a Full Subscriber or a Social 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.
- INTRODUCING OTHERS TO THE PROGRAM: An individual or entity may be introduced to the Program by an existing Subscriber or by the System through its own promotional effort. For the purposes of these Conditions, a participant is deemed to be introduced to the Program by an existing Subscriber if, and only if, the Subscriber ID of that existing Subscriber (now also called the "Referring Subscriber") is quoted at the time the subscription application is submitted, or at the time joining of a qualified promotional program takes place (see subsection 2.a above). For the purposes of this section:
- The Referring Subscriber shall be called the LEAD SUBSCRIBER to the new Subscriber.
- If being also a Full Subscriber, the Referring Subscriber can earn the Lead Subscriber status with a new subscriber (the "First New Subscriber") immediately introduced by him AND with all new subscribers ("Other New Subscribers") immediately introduced by that First New Subscriber. [Click here for explanation: Help Q&A Topic# 208.]
- A Subscriber can introduce as many qualified participants to the Program as possible and can be the Lead Subscribers to an unlimited number of new Subscribers.
- REFERRAL FEES - SUBSCRIBER ID: If an individual or a business pays to purchase certain specified advertising services (referred to as "Qualified Advertising Services", as defined herein) with the introduction of a Subscriber ID (the owner of that Subscriber ID is called the "Referring Subscriber"), HOMESmarketing will pay referral fee in the following manners:
- The Referring Subscriber shall receive referral fee equivalent to 5% of the sale amount paid if the Referring Subscriber is a Full Subscriber, or 2.5% if the Referring Subscriber is a Social Subscriber.
- Each Lead Subscriber of the Referring Subscriber shall receive referral fee equivalent to 2.5% of the sale amount paid.
- The term Qualified Advertising Services refers to advertising services or subscriptions where use of a Subscriber ID is encouraged or otherwise is accepted by the System. However, referral fee does not apply to transactions where only subscription to the Pioneer Program alone takes effect.
- Referral fees are payable only if a valid Subscriber ID is quoted at the time a purchase is made, and are based on a sale amount net of applicable taxes. No referral fee will be paid on renewals of existing services or subscriptions.
- The accumulated total of referral fees will be paid out to Subscribers half yearly.
- Recipients of referral fees are obligated to comply with all applicable taxation requirements of Canada and/or of the United States before such referral fees can be released by HOMESmarketing.
- ADVERTISING SERVICES - PASS CODE: A Full Subscriber will be issued a unique Pass Code in the name of an individual associated with and designated by the Full Subscriber (that individual shall be called "Designated User"). Pass Code will not be issued to a Social Subscriber. The use of the Pass Code is subject to the following: (1) The Pass Code will allow the Designated User to post unlimited number of Real Estate For Sale or Real Estate For Rent ads on the System at no extra cost (including renewal of existing ads). (2) The Designated User must not use the Pass Code to post any ad other than the ad types specified in Clause (1) herein or to post any ad that is not of his or her own. (3) Posting and maintenance of all ads is subject to the Terms of Use of the System. (4) Violation of Clause (2) or Clause (3) will render the Pass Code being revoked and all ads associated to such violation removed from the System without any compensation to the Designated User and the Full Subscriber.
- TERM OF THE PROGRAM: The Program is currently in effect, but HOMESmarketing may discontinue accepting new entries at its sole discretion. Once approved, a subscription and all associated benefits will be valid until June 30, 2018, or until the date as prescribed in the calling promotional program of which the subscription to this Pioneer Program is a feature (the "Expiry Date").
- MODIFICATIONS AND DISPUTES: A calling promotional program (of which the subscription to this Pioneer Program is a feature) may modify features contained herein and in such case, the modifications contained in the promotional program shall prevail. 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.
