The Six Steps Affiliate Program
Terms and Conditions
Rather than bombard you with pages of legal terminology that neither you nor we would understand, we decided to get our lawyers to write some user friendly terms and conditions that everyone could enjoy, well almost. Anyway, by doing this we hope that all our affiliates will know where they stand and have a much better chance of not breaking the rules.
Terms and Conditions:
By signing up to the Six Steps affiliate program you are agreeing to the terms and conditions set out below, you are also acknowledging that you have read this agreement in its entirety. If you violate any of the terms and conditions stipulated in this agreement then we have the right to suspend and close your affiliate account permanently.
1. Eligibility
By signing up to the Six Steps affiliate program you represent and agree that you are 18 years of age or over. Any individual signing up to the program on behalf on another individual, group or organization also represents and agrees that they are 18 years of age or over and authorized to act and enter into the agreement.
2. Administration
All your payment information and personal information will be administered entirely by Clickbank (www.clickbank.com). Clickbank are a third-party affiliate management and payment processing company. In addition to this agreement the Six Steps affiliate program is governed by the Clickbank Client Contract and all of the rules, regulations and terms of conditions it contains. You must fully understand the Clickbank Client Contract and the Clickbank Privacy Policy before participating in the Six Steps affiliate program.
3. Copying Information From Our Website
While we don’t mind you using ideas from our sales copy on the SixStepsToSleep.com site, we ask that you reword the copy in the interest of not creating duplicate content. It is one thing to take ideas and then add your creative edge, but another to just steal information. Stealing isn’t cool and Google doesn’t like duplicate content. So by all means take as many ideas from us as you like, but don’t copy and paste because this infringes copyright. Framing and iFraming is permitted so go ahead and frame away.
4. Reuse Information at Your Own Risk
The Six Steps To Sleep brand accepts no responsibility for the reuse of information on our website. So, if you copy text from our site, or use information regarding the sleep that we have previously published, we assume no liability or responsibility for errors or omissions. In other words, just because we said it doesn’t make it a fact that could be proven in a court of law. We aim to be as accurate as possible but we take no responsibility for anyone reusing the information we publish.
5. Article Writing
All articles published around the Internet must meet a reasonable standard of English grammar and provide the reader with a source of quality information. We reserve the right to judge what we consider to be ‘reasonable’. Articles should educate, excite and ultimately compel the reader to buy the Six Steps product. Articles should not be repetitive in nature and links should be placed strategically and with subtlety. Articles shall be articulate, informative and complement the professional nature of the brand. We reserve the right to request the removal of any articles that do not meet our standards of ‘reasonable’ in quality.
6. No Altering of Affiliate Tools
All tools available in the members area including, links, banners, pictures, promotional guides and any other tools we may provide you with in the future must not be altered in any way. This also applies to hoplink(s) provided by Clickbank. This means you can’t change links or manipulate images or banners without our expressed permission.
7. Respecting Intellectual Property Rights
All pictures shown on our website are either our property or the property of someone else given to us with permission to use. This means you cannot just take these things and use them on your website or in external advertising campaigns without permission. Violating intellectual property rights is illegal and considered theft. The stuff we want you to use will be readily available for download in the members’ area.
8. No Spamming
No one likes spamming, and no matter how desperate you are to make sales you cannot go around spamming email lists, social networks or any other spammable medium. Spamming is illegal and The Six Steps To Sleep brand takes no responsibility for any affiliate partaking in spamming. Be aware that spamming may result in legal action taken by either those being spammed or the network provider.

That said we do our utmost at all times to make sure we protect our affiliates from potentially harmful files.
10. Respecting the Six Steps To Sleep Trademark
Six Steps To Sleep is a trademark. Therefore you can’t use our name as if it’s your own. For example, using phrasing such as “We here at the Six Steps To Sleep sister website…”, is unacceptable. You can reference the brand, but you are an affiliate, not part of the brand. Neither do you have any resale rights on the brand. Specifically, you shall not sell Six Steps To Sleep Now or its related products on eBay or any other online auction site, and you shall not give away copies of any Six Steps To Sleep Now products.
11. Visit Links at Your Own Risk

We don’t want anything negative associated with the Six Steps To Sleep brand, and that means no provocative advertising using words such as “SCAM” or “FRAUD”, and certainly no literature defaming other sleep products in a bid to secure sales. If you do offend someone we take no responsibility, and that person or company has the right to contact the relevant authorities and pursue prosecution.
