This Agreement contains the complete terms and conditions that apply to you becoming an Ambassador in Survival Frog’s Ambassador Program. Please note that throughout this Agreement, "we," "us," and "our" refer to Survival Frog, and "you," "your," and "yours" refer to the Ambassador.
Ambassador Obligations

2.1.7. You may not create or design your website or any other website that you operate, explicitly or implied in a manner which resembles our website nor design your website in a manner which leads customers to believe you are Survival Frog or any other Ambassadors business.
2.1.8 Survival Frog reserves the right, at any time, to review your placement and approve the use of Your Links and require that you change the placement or use to comply with the guidelines provided to you.
2.1.9 It is entirely your responsibility to follow all applicable intellectual property and other laws that pertain to your site. You must have express permission to use any person's copyrighted material, whether it be a writing, an image, or any other copyrightable work. We will not be responsible (and you will be solely responsible) if you use another person's copyrighted material or other intellectual property in violation of the law or any third party rights.
Survival Frog Rights and Obligations
3.1. We have the right to monitor your posts at any time to determine if you are following the terms and conditions of this Agreement. We may notify you of any changes to your posts that we feel should be made, or to make sure that your links to our web site are appropriate and to notify further you of any changes that we feel should be made. If you do not make the changes to your site that we feel are necessary, we reserve the right to terminate your participation in the Survival Frog Ambassador Program.
3.2. This Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your Ambassador application, and will continue unless terminated hereunder.
Termination
Either you or we may end this Agreement AT ANY TIME, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice. Written notice can be in the form of email to affiliate@survivalfrog.com. In addition, this Agreement will terminate immediately upon any breach of this Agreement by you.
Modification
We may modify any of the terms and conditions in this Agreement at any time at our sole discretion. In such event, you will be notified by email. Modifications may include, but are not limited to, changes in the payment procedures and Survival Frog’s Ambassador Program rules. If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only option is to end this Agreement. Your continued participation in Survival Frog's Ambassador Program following the posting of the change notice or new Agreement on our site will indicate your agreement to the changes.
Ambassador Rewards
6.1 Ambassadors may receive free products only if they continue to post and share our products.
6.2 Free Buyer’s Club memberships will be included AFTER the Brand Ambassadors first post. We reserve the right to terminate this membership at any time.
6.3 Survival Frog Brand Ambassadors DO NOT receive any forms of monetary compensation for their participation in the program.
Promotion Restrictions
8.1. You are free to promote your own web sites and social media platforms, but naturally any promotion that mentions Survival Frog could be perceived by the public or the press as a joint effort. You should know that certain forms of advertising are always prohibited by Survival Frog. For example, advertising commonly referred to as "spamming" is unacceptable to us and could cause damage to our name. Other generally prohibited forms of advertising include the use of unsolicited commercial email (UCE), postings to non-commercial newsgroups and cross-posting to multiple newsgroups at once. In addition, you may not advertise in any way that effectively conceals or misrepresents your identity, your domain name, or your return email address. You may use mailings to customers to promote Survival Frog so long as the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of your services or web site, and recipients have the option to remove themselves from future mailings. Also, you may post to newsgroups to promote Survival Frog so long as the news group specifically welcomes commercial messages. At all times, you must clearly represent yourself and your web sites as independent from Survival Frog. If it comes to our attention that you are spamming, we will consider that cause for immediate termination of this Agreement and your participation in the Survival Frog Ambassador Program. Any pending balances owed to you will not be paid if your account is terminated due to such unacceptable advertising or solicitation.
8.2.1 Pay-Per-Click campaigns on search platforms (Google, Amazon, YouTube, Bing, Yahoo, etc.) on brand keywords such as Survival Frog, Frog & CO, etc. and/or any misspellings or similar alterations of these brand names – be it separately or in combination with other keywords – are not allowed and will be considered trademark violations, and will be banned from Survival Frog’s Ambassador Program. We will do everything possible to contact the Ambassador prior to the ban. However, we reserve the right to expel any trademark violator from our Ambassador program without prior notice, and on the first occurrence of such PPC bidding behavior.
8.3. Ambassadors are not prohibited from keying in prospect’s information into the lead form as long as the prospects’ information is real and true, and these are valid leads (i.e. sincerely interested in Merchant’s service).
