We will provide you with links to place anywhere you deem appropriate on your website or in an email to your friends. We have the right to ask you to remove all links to our website if, in our opinion, your site
* infringes or violates any applicable law, rule or regulation;
* is defamatory, obscene, offensive or controversial
2. Referral Commission
You will earn referral commissions for sales on our website that originated from your links. Commission is calculated as a percentage of all sales for which we have received payment in full less any returns or credits.

If your total accumulated commission is less than the minimum payout amount, your commission will be carried over to the following months until it exceeds the minimum amount. All referral commissions will be paid to you by PayPal or Direct Deposit (to an Australian Bank account) or cheque, depending on your preference, in Australian Dollars. At any time you can use your accumulated commission amount to purchase any goods or services on our site. If this Agreement terminates, any commission due at that time will be held for a reasonable time (not more than 3 months) to ensure that the correct amount is paid.
3. Returns and Credits
If there is a return after the referral commission has been paid, the referral commission will be deducted from the commission that is currently due to you. If there is no commission due to you for a period of three (3) months you will be billed for the respective amount.
4. Order Processing
We will be solely responsible for processing orders placed by customers that come through your link(s).
