Reversal & Communication Policy
Tadabase takes pride in its very low reversal rate, which we attribute to open communication with our affiliates. However, we reserve the right to reverse orders in our sole discretion, including due to order cancellations, duplicate tracking, returns, disputed charges, and Affiliate Program violations as outlined in these Affiliate Terms.
Additionally, if we ask you for clarification or more information on any orders or clicks that we suspect may be in violation of our Affiliate Terms, we expect that you will respond in a timely and honest manner. Below are violations of our communications policy.
- You are not forthcoming, intentionally vague or are found to be lying.
- You are not responsive within a reasonable time period.
- You cannot substantiate or validate the source of your traffic to our Affiliate Program with clear and demonstrable proof.
If any of the above apply, then we reserve the absolute right to reverse orders, withhold commission and remove you from the Affiliate Program at any time. We can update these Affiliate Terms at any time without prior notice. If we modify these Affiliate Terms, we will post the modification on the tadabase website, which are effective upon posting. By continuing to send referrals after we have posted a modification, you are indicating that you agree to be bound by the updated Affiliate Terms. If the modified Affiliate Terms are not acceptable to you, your only recourse is to stop sending referrals and not use your affiliate link.
