These Vercel Affiliate Marketing Terms apply to your participation in any Vercel Affiliate Marketing Program, including the v0 Ambassador Program (each, an "Affiliate Program”). Any person or entity (“you”) that participates or attempts to participate in an Affiliate Program must accept these Vercel Affiliate Marketing Terms (“Affiliate Terms”). By applying or registering for an Affiliate Program, you agree to comply with the Affiliate Terms between you and Vercel Inc. (“Vercel,” “we,” “us,” “our”). These Affiliate Terms incorporate, and you agree to comply with, the most up-to-date version of all policies, guidelines, and other rules referenced in these Affiliate Terms and any other policies that apply to tools, content, and features made available to you under the Program (“Program Guidelines”). If you sign up for a Program on behalf of an entity or organization, you are binding that organization to these Program Terms, and you represent that you have the authority to do so.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE REVIEW THE MUTUAL ARBITRATION CLAUSE SET FORTH BELOW CAREFULLY, AS IT WILL REQUIRE YOU TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH VERCEL THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS,, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS MUTUAL ARBITRATION CLAUSE.

1. Eligibility

Acceptance into an Affiliate Program is at the sole discretion of Vercel. Vercel may reject or deny your application for any reason. To be eligible to participate in the Affiliate Program, you must (a) be the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence; and (b) maintain an account for Vercel (and the applicable product/service for your Affiliate Program) in good standing at the time of payout. Any information collected in Vercel's registration or application process will be maintained in accordance with our Privacy Notice. Once you have been accepted into an Affiliate Program you shall be a "Participant" and may be eligible to earn compensation by creating, sharing, or distributing content about Vercel as set forth in these Affiliate Terms and the Program Guidelines.

1.1 Affiliate Program Compliance Requirements. You must comply with these Affiliate Terms to participate in an Affiliate Program and receive any Fees (as defined below). We may, but are not obligated to, monitor your website or marketing channels at any time to determine if you are complying with these Affiliate Terms and our Program Guidelines.

1.2 Violations. If you violate these Affiliate Terms, our Program Guidelines, or any other applicable terms and conditions, then, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to us, we reserve the right to permanently (to the extent permitted by applicable law) cease payment of all Fees otherwise payable to you under these Affiliate Terms, whether or not directly related to such violation, without notice and without prejudice to any right to recover damages in excess of this amount. If your Vercel account has been deactivated prior to payout, you will not be eligible to receive Fees, even if all other terms have been met.

2. Fees and Payments

If any Fee payments are contemplated by the Affiliate Program that you participate in, the following terms apply:

  1. Fee Payment. Eligible Participants shall receive compensation (“Fees”) set forth in the applicable Program Guidelines. Fees may consist of commission income for qualifying purchases completed via an Affiliate Link or credits toward use of Vercel’s products and services (“Services”). All Fees earned shall be one-time payments unless expressly stated otherwise in the Program Guidelines. In order to receive payment under the Affiliate Program, you must have: (a) agreed to these Affiliate Terms and the terms of Vercel’s third-party payment processors or program administrators; (b) completed all steps necessary to create your account, (c) provided a valid and up-to-date payment method in such account; and (d) completed any and all required tax documentation that may be required in order for us or our third party program administrator to process any payments that may be owed to you. Vercel reserves the right to withhold or deduct Fees obtained through the Affiliate Program in the event that Vercel determines or believes that the receipt of the Fee was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of these Affiliate Terms or any other applicable agreement between you and Vercel.

  2. Maximum Fee Payment. Vercel reserves the right to set a maximum amount of Fees you can earn as a Participant. It is your responsibility to review the Program Guidelines for the current maximum limits. In addition to the foregoing, if you have received the maximum Fee, Vercel, at Vercel’s sole discretion, may automatically terminate your eligibility to participate in a Vercel Affiliate Program. You may not create multiple Vercel accounts to circumvent the Fee maximum, and Vercel may withhold or deny any amounts above the maximum Fee.

  3. Taxes. You will be responsible for paying all taxes imposed by any governmental authority on payment of the Fees (“Taxes”), if any. If we are required to withhold any withholding or similar taxes, we will do so and will make these payments. Any withholding taxes paid by us to the tax authority will be deducted from the amount due to you, such that the amount paid to you will be net of the withholding taxes. Upon your request, we will provide you with a copy of the tax receipt or tax certificate for the withholding tax paid.

  4. Affiliate Links. If you are able to access a link to Vercel’s Services associated with you as a Participant (“Affiliate Link”), the following additional terms apply:

    1. When a customer clicks through the Affiliate Link to purchase a subscription to a certain Vercel product or service ("Service(s)"), you may receive commission income for qualifying purchases as further described in (and subject to the limitations in) the Program Guidelines. If Vercel requests that you remove an Affiliate Link from your properties, you must comply with such request within twenty-four (24) hours. Failure to comply with such request may result in suspension or termination of your participation in the Affiliate Program and/or forfeiture of payments, as determined by Vercel in its sole discretion.

    2. You will only be eligible for a Fee payment for customer transactions that are completed (a) via the Affiliate Link that we make available to you; (b) through Vercel's self-service purchase process; and (c) on a customer transaction designated as compensation-eligible by the Program Guidelines, regardless of any additional or subsequent purchases made by the same customer for the Services or Vercel’s platform. You are not eligible for a Fee if: (i) a prospective customer does not complete the purchase or register to use the Services following their click on the Affiliate Link even if the prospective customer later purchases a subscription directly by visiting Vercel's website or through another link, (ii) a customer enters the purchase process through your Affiliate Link, but completes their purchase through a Vercel account executive or other sales-assisted process, (iii) the Affiliate Link is used after your participation in the Affiliate Program has expired or terminated, or (iv) at or prior to the time the customer used your Affiliate Link, such customer is our pre-existing customer or was actively involved in the sales process. Vercel will not be liable for your or a customer’s errors in using your Affiliate Link, even if such errors result in a reduction of amounts that would otherwise be paid to you under these Affiliate Terms. Only one Participant can earn a Fee for a single customer referred. In the event that multiple persons claim credit for a particular referral, Vercel has full discretion to determine which person earned such referral according to Vercel’s systems.

    3. You acknowledge and agree that Vercel’s Affiliate Link program is administered by Dub Technologies, Inc. (“Dub”) and Vercel pays Fees related to your Affiliate Link using one of the payment methods supported by the Dub platform. You represent and warrant that you have carefully read, understood, and accepted the Dub platform terms and conditions available on Dub’s website (https://dub.co/legal/terms) (“Dub Terms and Conditions”) and acknowledge that acceptance is a precondition to earning Fees in connection with your Affiliate Link. In the event of any conflict between these Affiliate Terms or any Program Guidelines and the Dub Terms and Conditions, these Affiliate Terms and the Program Guidelines will govern.

Except as expressly stated, these Affiliate Terms do not grant any rights, implied or otherwise, to any intellectual property.

You will only use Confidential Information in relation to the Affiliate Program. If you are an organization, you may share Confidential Information with your employees or professional advisors who need to know it and if they have agreed to terms at least as protective of the Confidential Information as those in these Affiliate Terms. Other than as allowed in the preceding sentence, you will not disclose or make Confidential Information available to any other person or entity, unless specifically authorized by us in writing.

6. Term

The term of these Affiliate Terms will begin upon your registration for the Affiliate Program and will continue until you cease participating in the Affiliate Program, or your participation is otherwise terminated in accordance with this Agreement. Vercel may terminate your participation in an Affiliate Program and these Affiliate Terms at any time, with or without cause, by giving you written notice of termination. Upon termination your rights to use any Affiliate Link, Vercel Content, and the Vercel Marks shall cease. We may hold accrued unpaid Fee income for a reasonable period of time following termination to ensure that the correct amount is paid (for example, to account for any cancellations or downgraded subscriptions).

ANY INFORMATION OR MATERIALS PROVIDED BY US (INCLUDING ANY AFFILIATE LINK(S)) ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTY. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT AFFILIATE LINKS MAY OPERATE ON A "LAST-CLICK" MODEL AND VERCEL IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PAYMENT OF FEES IN THE EVENT A CUSTOMER TRANSACTION IS NOT COMPLETED USING YOUR AFFILIATE LINK. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

9. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Vercel, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all damages, liabilities, and expenses (including settlement costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Vercel arising from any third-party claims related to: (a) your breach of these Affiliate Terms or applicable law or regulation; (b) your website, your content, or materials used by you in connection with any Affiliate Program; and (c) your gross negligence or willful misconduct. We will have the right to approve any counsel retained to defend against any claim in which Vercel is named a defendant, and we will not unreasonably withhold this approval. We will have the right to control and participate in the defense of any such claim concerning matters that relate to us at our expense, and you will not settle any claim without our reasonable consent. If, in our reasonable judgment, a conflict exists between the interests of us and you in such a claim, we may retain our own counsel whose reasonable fees will be paid by you.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, (A) WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES HOWEVER ARISING WHETHER OR NOT WE WERE AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THOSE DAMAGES AND DESPITE THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY STATED IN THESE AFFILIATE TERMS; AND (B) OUR LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF THESE AFFILIATE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (i) THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID OR PAYABLE TO YOU UNDER THESE AFFILIATE TERMS FOR THE APPLICABLE AFFILIATE PROGRAM IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRIOR TO WHEN THE APPLICABLE CLAIM AROSE; or (ii) $500 USD.

11. General

  1. Governing Law. These Affiliate Terms and related disputes will be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

  2. Arbitration. Both parties agree to resolve any claims relating to these Affiliate Terms only through final and binding arbitration, except as set forth below. Any dispute between you and Vercel that is not resolved through negotiation will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the then-current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services ("JAMS"). The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator selected by agreement of you and Vercel or, if you and Vercel cannot agree, an arbitrator appointed in accordance with the JAMS rules who shall be experienced in the type of dispute at issue. You and Vercel, their representatives, the arbitrator, and other participants shall keep confidential the existence, content, and result of the arbitration. Any demand for arbitration and any counterclaim must specify in reasonable detail the facts and legal grounds forming the basis for the claimant's claims and include a statement of the total amount of damages claimed, if any, and any other remedy sought by the claimant. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language; the location of such arbitration shall be in San Francisco, California. Each party will bear its own costs in the arbitration. The arbitrator will have full power and authority to determine issues of arbitrability and to interpret or construe the provisions of the agreement documents and to fashion appropriate remedies (including temporary, preliminary, interim, or permanent injunctive relief); provided that the arbitrator will not have any right or authority: (a) in excess of the authority that a court having jurisdiction over the parties and the dispute would have absent this arbitration agreement; or (b) to award damages in excess of the types and limitation of damages found in the Agreement. Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate, each party may apply at any time to a court of competent jurisdiction for appropriate injunctive relief or for other interim or conservatory measures, and by doing so will not breach or waive the agreement to arbitrate or impair the powers of the arbitrator. The state or federal courts sitting in San Francisco County, California shall have exclusive jurisdiction and venue over any dispute arising out of your participation in the Program, subject to the mandatory arbitration provisions herein, and you hereby consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

  3. NO CLASS ACTIONS. You may only resolve disputes related to or arising from these Affiliate Terms on an individual basis and will not bring a claim in a class, consolidated, or representative action. This waiver is an independent covenant.

  4. Opt-out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to: legalnotices@vercel.com with the subject line "ARBITRATION OPT-OUT". The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of the date that you first accept these Terms, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate any disputes in accordance with these Terms. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, Vercel also will not be bound by them.

  5. Notices. Notices may be sent to you at the email address you used to sign up for the Program. Notices to us must be sent to legalnotices@vercel.com, attn: VP of Legal. Notices are deemed given when received.

  6. Modifications. We may modify the Affiliate Terms from time to time, in which case the new Affiliate Terms will supersede prior versions. Your continued participation in the Program following the effective date of any such modification may be relied upon by Vercel as your consent to any such modifications.

  7. No Assignment. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense without the prior written consent of Vercel, but Vercel may assign or transfer, these Affiliate Terms, in whole or in part, without restriction. Any attempted assignment or transfer of these Affiliate Terms by the parties in contravention of the foregoing shall be null and void.

  8. General. The Affiliate Terms supersedes any prior agreements or understandings between the parties regarding the subject matter hereunder. The Affiliate Terms, including all Program Guidelines, constitute the entire agreement between the parties related to this subject matter. Unenforceable provisions will be modified to reflect the parties’ intention and only to the extent necessary to make them enforceable, and the remaining provisions of the Affiliate Terms will remain in full effect. A waiver of any default is not a waiver of any subsequent default. There are no third-party beneficiaries to these Affiliate Terms.

  9. Survival. All Sections in these Affiliate Terms which are either expressed to survive or which are by implication intended to survive termination or expiration of these Affiliate Terms shall continue to survive notwithstanding termination or expiration of the Affiliate Terms.
