The Links may only be integrated on the website whose domain (URL) you specified when registering for the parfumdreams Partner Program. In addition, you may integrate the Links into email newsletters that you send, provided that the newsletter is directly related to the specified website.

3. Advertising Compensation

(1) If your advertising leads to an order with and the conclusion of a contract with parfumdreams, you shall receive compensation (commission) from parfumdreams in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3. Only orders resulting from regular and contract-compliant marketing measures on your website shall be remunerated. parfumdreams reserves the right to reject orders, in particular orders involving quantities that do not correspond to customary household quantities. Sales via the parfumdreams app are not remunerated.

(2) For the calculation of advertising compensation, only revenue generated by parfumdreams from sales made by parfumdreams via the parfumdreams online shop to customers who accessed our website immediately prior to the purchase via one of the links on your website ("last cookie wins") shall be taken into account. Such sales shall be considered for the calculation of your advertising compensation provided that the sale, delivery, and full payment of the goods have been completed. Orders placed by employees of the parfumdreams Group shall not be taken into account for the calculation of your advertising compensation. Please note that sales to customers who do not access our website immediately prior to placing an order via a link on your website do not count towards the calculation of your advertising compensation, even if they previously accessed our website via your website or made a purchase at an earlier point in time.

(3) To ensure a fair distribution of commissions among the individual sales channels, the basket-freeze procedure is used. The basket freeze applies 30 minutes after a product has been added to the shopping cart.

(4) parfumdreams reserves the right to reject orders that do not comply with the parfumdreams guidelines (e.g. insufficient creditworthiness, incorrect customer data) and to exclude them from commission. Furthermore, parfumdreams reserves the right to cancel commissions in the event of full returns, to reduce commissions proportionally in the event of partial returns, and, where applicable, to reclaim such commissions.

(5) parfumdreams shall pay a commission in the amount published by parfumdreams at the time of registration for the parfumdreams Affiliate Partner Program. parfumdreams may change the amount, calculation method, and other elements of the commission at any time with two weeks' prior notice; this applies in particular to special promotions under which parfumdreams offers customers especially favorable conditions. Changes will be communicated to you via the network or in text form.

(6) You are obliged to carefully review the billing statements provided by the networks and to submit any objections in text form within one month. Otherwise, the billing statement shall be deemed approved, unless the objection could not be asserted within the one-month period. Claims for payment or reimbursement of commission shall become time-barred for both parties three months after they become due. Requests for retroactive crediting of sales that are more than three months old will generally be rejected.

(7) All commissions are calculated on the basis of the net order value (revenue minus shipping costs, value-added tax, cancellations, duplicate orders, full and partial returns, and other invalid sales). The sale of gift cards does not give rise to a commission claim. Upon redemption of gift cards, the nominal value of the gift card shall be deducted from the assessment base for the commission. Please refer to the program description for detailed information on the current compensation structure.

(8) The crediting of commissions and any bonuses shall take place after expiration of the pending period and shall be paid out in the following payout period.

(9) The minimum commission amount required for a...

The Partner's obligation to indemnify and assume costs shall not apply to the extent that parfumdreams is responsible for the infringement.

(3) In the event that parfumdreams is subject to a claim, the Partner shall, at its own expense, immediately ensure the contractual performance of the services owed and, if necessary, acquire the rights required for the performance of its services under this agreement at its own expense.
