Affiliate Program Agreement

Last updated: July 12, 2026

1. Agreement and Eligibility

This Affiliate Program Agreement ("Agreement") is between StanHattie LLC ("ArtDrop," "we," "us") and the person or entity accepted as an affiliate ("you"). You must be at least 18, able to enter a binding contract, provide accurate contact and tax information, and comply with applicable law and platform rules. We may accept, reject, pause, or remove an application at our discretion.

2. Pilot Commission Schedule

Unless your written invitation states a different schedule, the initial pilot pays a direct commission equal to 20% of eligible net revenue from a referred customer's initial eligible ArtDrop purchase and eligible monthly Web-plan payments during the first 12 months after that customer's initial purchase. A Mac lifetime purchase can generate one commission. Taxes, refunds, credits, chargebacks, disputed amounts, test transactions, fraudulent transactions, purchases by existing customers, self-referrals, and unsupported billing rails are excluded.

Additional-store charges and purchases billed through Shopify Managed Pricing are not commissionable unless your written invitation expressly includes them and ArtDrop confirms that attribution is supported. The pilot does not pay a parent, recruiting, or multi-tier override. Any future override must be activated in a written schedule and may be earned only from legitimate customer revenue—not from recruiting an affiliate, buying access, or paying a participation fee.

A dashboard estimate is not a promise of payment. The authoritative amount is the validated commission ledger after refunds, disputes, fraud review, attribution checks, and any required corrections.

3. Attribution

ArtDrop uses a signed first-party referral marker. First valid touch normally wins for up to 90 days. Attribution can fail if the visitor blocks or deletes the cookie, changes devices or browsers, uses a non-tracking link, was already an ArtDrop customer, completes an unsupported checkout, or another exclusion applies. We do not guarantee that every click or purchase will be attributed.

You may not overwrite another affiliate's marker, hide or force a referral cookie, place cookies without a genuine user click, alter timestamps, inject links or scripts, or otherwise engage in cookie stuffing, adware, toolbar, extension, malware, or attribution interference.

4. Required FTC and Similar Disclosures

Every endorsement or recommendation containing your ArtDrop referral link or code must clearly and conspicuously disclose that you may earn a commission. Put the disclosure close to the recommendation and link, before or with the endorsement—not only on a profile, footer, terms page, or behind a link. Use the same language as the endorsement and include visual and audible disclosure when the endorsement is both visual and audible.

A clear example is: “I may earn a commission if you buy ArtDrop through this link.” “Affiliate link,” “commissionable link,” a discount code by itself, or a platform's built-in label may be insufficient. You must follow the FTC Endorsement Guides and all rules that apply where you or your audience are located. We may provide training, inspect public promotions, request corrections, or suspend links for noncompliance.

5. Accurate Marketing

You may describe only current, publicly documented ArtDrop capabilities, pricing, refund terms, supported services, and availability. You may not promise income, guaranteed results, guaranteed uptime, future features, marketplace acceptance, or outcomes ArtDrop does not control. You may not imply that you are ArtDrop, StanHattie LLC, an employee, agent, official support representative, or exclusive partner. You may use approved brand assets only for the program and must remove them when asked.

6. Prohibited Promotion

• Self-referrals or purchases for yourself, your household, a controlled entity, or another person used to obtain a commission
• Spam, purchased lists, unsolicited bulk email/SMS, robocalls, unlawful direct messages, or any promotion without required consent
• False, misleading, deceptive, unsubstantiated, defamatory, infringing, discriminatory, or illegal content
• Bidding on “ArtDrop,” “StanHattie,” misspellings, or confusing variants in paid search; impersonating domains, social accounts, apps, or support channels
• Coupon, cashback, loyalty, sub-affiliate, media-buying, or incentive traffic unless we approve it in writing
• Pop-ups, forced redirects, invisible frames, cookie stuffing, link hijacking, malware, browser extensions, or automated/bot clicks
• Placing links on content primarily directed to children or where the promotion would violate a platform's rules

7. Validation, Holds, Refunds, and Disputes

Commissions normally remain on hold for at least 30 days. We may extend a hold while a refund, dispute, fraud, tax, identity, payout, or technical review is unresolved. A refund, chargeback, dispute, reversal, duplicate, unpaid transaction, or policy violation may void some or all related commissions. A partial refund may void the full related commission during the pilot. If a commission was already paid, we may offset the amount against future commissions or request repayment where permitted by law.

8. Payouts

The normal minimum payout is $25 and the intended schedule is monthly after the hold and review period. Payouts are not available until ArtDrop enables the program, approves your account, and your supported Stripe Connect account completes required identity, bank, tax, and payout verification. We may delay a payout to reconcile an ambiguous provider result; we will not blindly issue a second transfer when the first transfer's status is uncertain.

You are responsible for keeping payout information current. Stripe or a bank may charge fees, reject a transfer, restrict an account, or require more information. ArtDrop is not responsible for delays caused by inaccurate information, provider review, sanctions screening, banking networks, or legal holds.

9. Taxes

You are an independent contractor and are responsible for your taxes, registrations, records, and professional advice. You must provide accurate taxpayer information and complete required forms. ArtDrop may withhold payouts or apply backup withholding when required. Stripe may collect information and provide tax-form delivery tools, but StanHattie LLC remains responsible for determining and carrying out its reporting obligations. Thresholds and state rules can change; no statement in the program is tax advice.

10. Privacy and Security

Our Privacy Policy describes referral, affiliate, payout, and cookie data. You receive aggregate program statistics, not referred-customer personal information. Keep stats and onboarding links private. Notify support@getartdrop.com promptly if a link, account, or credential is exposed. You may not collect customer data on ArtDrop's behalf or represent that ArtDrop supplied customer information.

11. Monitoring and Records

You will keep reasonable records of your promotions and disclosures and provide them when needed to investigate compliance. We may monitor public promotions, click patterns, attribution, payment signals, refunds, disputes, and payout status to protect customers and the program. Click counts can include automated or invalid traffic and do not by themselves create a commission.

12. Changes, Suspension, and Termination

Either party may end participation at any time by written notice. We may immediately suspend tracking or payouts for suspected fraud, prohibited promotion, disclosure failures, security risk, legal obligations, or material breach. We may change the program prospectively by posting or sending updated terms. Material economic changes apply prospectively unless law or fraud correction requires otherwise. Valid commissions earned before termination remain subject to holds, minimums, refunds, disputes, offsets, tax verification, and this Agreement. Fraudulent or prohibited commissions are forfeited.

13. Independent Contractor; No Exclusivity

You are an independent contractor, not an employee, partner, franchisee, joint venturer, representative, or agent. You cannot bind ArtDrop or make commitments on our behalf. Participation is non-exclusive and does not create a territory, quota, salary, benefit, or guaranteed minimum payment.

14. Disclaimers and Limitation

The program, links, reporting, and materials are provided “as is” to the extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee availability, conversion, attribution, earnings, or uninterrupted tracking. To the maximum extent permitted by law, ArtDrop is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or lost-profit damages arising from the program. ArtDrop's aggregate program liability to you will not exceed unpaid validated commissions for the six months before the event giving rise to the claim.

15. Indemnity

You will defend and indemnify StanHattie LLC and its personnel against third-party claims, losses, penalties, and reasonable costs caused by your promotion, content, legal violations, platform violations, infringement, privacy practices, or breach of this Agreement, except to the extent caused by ArtDrop's own unlawful conduct.

16. Governing Law; Entire Agreement

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Iowa, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes shall be brought in the state or federal courts serving Iowa unless applicable law requires another forum. This Agreement, your accepted commission schedule, and the Privacy Policy are the entire affiliate agreement. If a schedule conflicts with this Agreement, the schedule controls only the stated economic term.
