EMOVID CORPORATION
AFFILIATE MARKETING AGREEMENT
This Affiliate Marketing Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between Emovid Corporation, a Washington corporation located at 200 First Ave West, Suite #320, Seattle, Washington 98119 (“Emovid”) and Affiliate tied to an approved Corporate Adopter Program Service Order (“Affiliate”). Emovid and Affiliate may individually be referred to as a “Party” and collectively referred to as the “Parties”. For the consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the Parties agree as follows:
1. SCOPE OF ACTIVITIES
The Parties will undertake the activities listed in Appendix A.
2. TRACKING OF USERS.
- If appropriate, Emovid will provide Affiliate with uniquely coded URLS and/or unique promotional affiliate codes that will enable Emovid to track new users that result from the Affiliate’s site or marketing activities.
- Once submitted, Emovid will reply with formal approval or acceptance. This approval or acceptance is specifically based on the specific registered company, defined internal team and contact. If another internal team from the registered company or another contact at the registered account separately reaches out, this is not deemed an Affiliate led effort and no funds will be earned by Affiliate.
- Post acceptance, deal must remain actively engaged with us to remain as an approved Deal Registration meaning at Emovid’s sole discretion constant communication and progress needs to occur or Emovid will notify that Deal Registration for the account is no longer approved.
- Once Emovid deems a Deal Registration has gone dormant and communicated it to the Affiliate as such; Deal Registration is no longer active and Affiliate is no longer tied to the registered account. If Deal Registration has not had communication from the registered account during any 60 day period, it is automatically deemed dormant and no longer active.
3. LICENSES
Emovid grants to Affiliate a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use Emovid’s trade names, trademarks, logos and service marks (collectively, the “Marks”) in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Affiliate shall not use any of Emovid’s Marks for any purpose without Emovid’s prior written consent. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall confer on Affiliate any right, title or interest in any of the Marks or goodwill of Emovid.
4. TERM AND TERMINATION.

- Termination for Convenience. Upon written notice, a Party may terminate this Agreement for any reason at any time and without further obligation of either Party, except for any outstanding payment obligations.
