- FTC Endorsement Compliance
- It is the intent of Imagine Leadership to treat all of our customers fairly. Accordingly, we require all Women’s Biz Coop Affiliates to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and guidelines concerning advertising and marketing, including without limitations, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Endorsement Guides which require that material connections between advertisers and endorsers be disclosed. This means that all Affiliates Sites (e.g. directories, review/rating websites, blogs, and other websites) and any email or collateral that provide an endorsement or assessment of Women’s Biz Coop Products and Services must prominently disclose the fact that you receive compensation for End Users and Referred Customers.
- In the event that you do a product review of any of our Imagine Leadership Products and Services, you should make sure that you disclose upfront that you receive a percentage of each sale made. In addition, all endorsements must reflect the honest opinions or experiences of the endorser. Any disclosures must be clear and conspicuous and not hidden. The most important principles are that an endorsement has to represent the accurate experience and opinion of the endorser. In addition, you must follow the following guidance:
- You can’t talk about your experience with a Product or Service if you haven’t tried it.
- If you were paid to try a product and you thought it was terrible, you can’t say it’s terrific.
- You can’t make claims about a product that would require proof you don’t have. For example, you can’t say a product will cure a particular disease if there isn’t scientific evidence to prove that it’s true.
- Furthermore, such disclosures must be made clearly, frequently, and conspicuously. Such disclosures ensure that readers can formulate an informed opinion about the information you provide by understanding the possible influence your material connection with our company might have on your endorsement of our Imagine Leadership Products and Services.
- Linking in Articles: When using our Referral Link in an article, you must display a clear disclosure about the nature of your affiliate links and the material connection you have with our company. These disclosures must appear on the same page where the links appear, and they must be clear, conspicuous and require no additional user interaction to read (such as clicking a link, scrolling, or hovering over an element.) According to the FTC: “Putting disclosures in obscure places – for example, buried on an About Us or General Info page, behind a poorly labeled hyperlink or in a Terms Or Service agreement – isn’t good enough. The average person who visits your site must be able to notice your disclosure, read it, and understand it.” All disclosures should appear in full, either before or in close proximity to the affiliate link itself.
- Example Article Disclosure: “Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are ‘affiliate links.’ This means if you click on the link and purchase the item, I will receive an affiliate commission.”
- Linking on Social Media: When using your Referral Links on social media, you must also display a clear disclosure about the nature of the links and material connection you have with our company. In the form of social media posts, these disclosures must be part of the post that contains the affiliate link.
- Example Facebook Disclosure: “Ad: Check out our review of Women’s Biz Coop, and why we think it’s the best business org around. www.womensbizcoop.com/membership/?referral#”
- Example Twitter Disclosure: “Women’s Biz Coop has the best complimentary resources! Join us www.womensbizcoop.com/membership/?referral# #ad
- For more information and suggestions about how to comply with these guidelines, please visit our page entitled “Affiliate Disclosure Requirements and Examples” Please note that this page is only intended to provide guidance. It does not purport to provide legal advice and it does not guarantee that you’ll be in compliance with FTC regulations should you follow the suggestions presented. You are advised to seek and obtain your own legal advice on how these rules apply to Your Websites or other promotional activities for which you receive compensation.
- Women’s Biz Coop reserves the right to withhold Commissions and cancel the Affiliate relationship with you should we determine, at our sole discretion, that you are not in compliance with the previously mentioned guide or other FTC regulations or guides that we deem relevant.
6. Data Security
- In addition to the obligations set forth in Section F (FTC Endorsement Compliance), you shall comply with all applicable data protection laws regarding the transmission of data exported to or from the United States of the country in which Affiliate resides, including without limitation, the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 of European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 (the “GDPR”). You, as a controller under the GDPR, shall also implement appropriate technical measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, taking into account the nature, scope, context, and purpose of processing any personal data. You agree to promptly assist Imagine Leadership in complying with any data subject rights request under the GDPR that Imagine Leadership may receive from any individuals referred to Imagine Leadership by you, our Affiliate. You further agree to promptly assist Imagine Leadership in complying with any duties to cooperate with supervisory authorities under the GDPR.

We will track the Qualified Purchases generated by Your Websites and will make this information available to you through our Women’s Biz Coop Websites.

- Headings and References. Headings of Sections are for the convenience of reference only. Words indicated in quotes and capitalized signify an abbreviation or defined term for indicated words or terms, including those definitions contained in the opening paragraph.
- Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy, shall constitute an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement, between you and Imagine Leadership concerning your use of the Women’s Biz Coop Websites and participation in Women’s Biz Coop Affiliate Program. However, terms and conditions of some other Imagine Leadership Products and Services may impose additional terms, which can be found in the terms and conditions for such Products and Services.
- Participation in Women’s Biz Coop Affiliate Program is also governed by our Privacy Policy, the provisions of which are adopted herein by reference so when referring to this Agreement we also refer to the Privacy Policy.
- All provisions of this Agreement are distinct and severable. If any provision of this Agreement (or part of any provision) is found by any court or other authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, this shall not impair the operation of this Agreement or affect the other provisions which are valid.
- This Agreement is in the English language, which prevails over any translations of it to other languages, made by us, and provided to you for your convenience, as applicable. Women’s Biz Coop Affiliate Program is designed in the English language and its translations into other languages may contain inaccuracies for which we shall not bear any responsibility; we suggest using the English version and resorting to versions in other languages only for references and at your own risk.

If Imagine Leadership provides you with information, that information shall not be deemed tax or legal advice, and Imagine Leadership shall not be responsible for the accuracy of such information.
- Applicable Law, Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver.
- This Agreement is entered into in the State of New Jersey. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New Jersey, excluding that body of law applicable to conflicts of law.
- Any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the Agreement or to any acts or omissions for which you may contend we are liable, including but not limited to any claim or controversy (“Dispute”), shall be finally and exclusively, settled by arbitration in Trenton, New Jersey, from which arbitration there shall be no appeal. The arbitration shall be held before one arbitrator under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in force at that time. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the AAA rules. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law of the State of New Jersey, except that the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. To begin the arbitration process, a party must make a written demand therefore. Each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees. Any judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction in New Jersey. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award damages in connection with any Dispute in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, and each party irrevocably waives any claim thereto. The agreement to arbitrate shall not be construed as an agreement to the joined or consolidation of arbitration under this Agreement with arbitration of disputes or claims of any non-party, regardless of the nature of the issues or disputes involved. THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU THUS GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS. YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BRING CLASS ACTIONS. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND IMAGINE LEADERSHIP ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and we otherwise agree, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY.
- WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED THE SERVICE FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.
- Our failure to enforce your strict performance of any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of our right to subsequently enforce such a provision or any other provision of this Agreement.
- You confirm that you have read, acknowledge, and agree to all the terms and conditions of Women’s Biz Coop Affiliate Program Terms. You have independently evaluated the desirability of accepting Women’s Biz Coop Affiliate Program Terms and are not relying on any representation, guarantee, or statement other than as set forth in Women’s Biz Coop Affiliate Program Terms.
- Electronic Notices. You agree to receive communications from us in an electronic form.
