ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT
By registering as a Mirago Associate, you are agreeing to be bound by the Terms and Conditions of this Scheme when Mirago accept your Associate Registration Request. If you do not accept these Terms and Conditions, do not register as an Associate. If you have registered already and do not accept these Terms and Conditions, you should cease to offer Mirago Search Services immediately.
 
MODIFICATION OF THIS AGREEMENT

BASIS OF THE AGREEMENT
The Associate shall offer Mirago Search Services in accordance with these Terms and Conditions which shall govern the Contract to the exclusion of any other Terms and Conditions specified by the Associate. Upon receiving acceptance of the Associate's Registration Request, Mirago shall grant the Associate a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence for the term of this Agreement to display, transmit and promote Mirago Search Boxes, Graphics, HTML, integration source code and search results on the site nominated by the Associate and in the format agreed between Mirago and the Associate in connection with the promotion of search services on the Associate's nominated site(s). No further alteration to this code, search result format or devices shall be made outside that allowed in the Mirago Associate Developer's Toolkit without the written permission of Mirago. The Associate acknowledges that all rights, title and interests in the Mirago Trademarks, Devices and source code granted under Licence to the Associate remain the ownership of Mirago.
 
PAYMENT
Any revenue share or payment under this scheme shall commence when Mirago sends to the Advertiser an Implementation Acceptance Notification which denotes that the code has been satisfactorily implemented and traffic is being correctly recorded by Mirago. For the purpose of the Associate scheme, the number of Click Throughs attributed to the Advertiser shall be exclusively calculated from schedules derived from the advertiser log files created within the Mirago Web Site which contain the allocated Associate Number provided by Mirago when the Associate's Registration Request was accepted. Payment to the Associate will be calculated on the basis agreed between the parties and notified to the Associate by Mirago. A commission notification will be sent on a monthly basis showing commission to be invoiced for the previous month. Payment will be made by Mirago within 30 days of the receipt of an invoice together with a matching commission notification. If however the amount due is less than £25, the balance will be carried forward to the following month (and if necessary subsequent months) until the amount due exceeds £25. Your revenue percentage is applied directly to the revenue attributable to your associate number. Bid prices (hence revenue figures) exclude VAT. You will need to charge VAT on top if you are VAT registered.
 
RIGHT TO WITHHOLD PAYMENT AND TERMINATE THE AGREEMENT
Mirago at its absolute discretion retains the right to withhold all or part of commission payments due in circumstances where for example there are patterns in traffic which suggests activity to artificially increase the numbers of Click Throughs or any other reason which is similarly against the spirit of the scheme. Mirago at its absolute discretion retains the right to terminate this Agreement at any time without reason. Such reasons may include (but may not be limited to) the Associate using the Service for Illegal or Immoral purposes, the inclusion in the Associate's site of material which is offensive, libellous, abusive or unlawful, or which violates any third party's Intellectual Property Rights or activities by the Associate which are contrary to the spirit of the scheme. The Associate retains the right to terminate this Agreement at any time without reason.
 
SECURITY AND CONTACT DETAILS
The Associate undertakes to ensure that any User Name and Password which shall be allocated by Mirago shall be kept secure and confidential by the Associate and shall not be disclosed to or used by any third party.
