Affiliate Disclosure

FTC Disclosure Compliance Rules

In 2015, the Federal Trade Commission released their new rules for Disclosure Compliance. These rules are set in place to ensure that readers or viewers of web media are aware if the blogger or publisher is sponsored, endorsed, or partnered with a different company. The readers need to know if the content publisher is making money by sharing a link or product. In compliance with the FTC guidelines, please assume the following about links and posts on the Website: Any/all of the links on Net Parents are affiliate links for which we receive a small compensation from sales of certain items.

What Are Affiliate Links?

Purchases are made on external affiliate company websites: when You click on an affiliate link located on Net Parents to purchase an item, You buy the item from the seller directly (not from Net Parents). Amazon and/or other companies pay Net Parents a small commission or other compensation for helping to bring customers to their website. Prices are exactly the same for readers whether they purchase the product through an affiliate link or a non-affiliate link. Clicking an affiliate link and clicking a non-affiliate link does not change the price or anything else for the visitor.

Net Parents uses two main types of affiliate programs:

1. Amazon affiliate links.

Net Parents is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for website owners to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites, as well as to other websites that may be affiliated with Amazon Service LLC Associates Program.

2. Product affiliate links.

If you click a product affiliate link and buy the product, then Net Parents will get a percentage of the sale or some other type of compensation.

Again, prices are not different if You use these affiliate links. You will not pay more by clicking through to the link. These links are not “pay per click.”

What about sponsored content?

Net Parents does not write sponsored posts. We want to provide authentic, un-biased information based on Our own research from customer reviews, Consumer Reports, and other established websites. However, if a company would like to publish sponsored content on the Website, We will disclose this clearly in the beginning of the post.

Your purchase helps support Our research efforts. Thank you very much!

Governing Law

These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and of the laws of Canada applicable therein, and any dispute is to be submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction in the judicial district of Toronto, Province of Ontario.

If any provision of the present Terms of Use shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then such provision shall be severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. A printed copy of these Terms of Use and of any notice in electronic form shall be admissible in any judicial or administrative proceedings to the same extent and under the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall have the right to institute an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable relief pending a final decision by the arbitrator. You and Net Parents agree that any cause of action arising out of or related to the Website or the Services or these Terms must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action arose; otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred. These Terms of Use and any and all other legal notices or statements posted on the Website constitute the entire agreement between you and Net Parents with respect to the use of the Website, including the Content.

Dispute Resolution

In the event a dispute arises between You and Net Parents, you must contact Net Parents at admin@netparents.org to give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute informally through negotiation. You agree to negotiate resolution of the Dispute in good faith for no less than 60 days after You provide notice of the Dispute. If Net Parents does not resolve Your Dispute within 60 days from receipt of notice of the Dispute, either party may pursue a claim in arbitration pursuant to the terms of this Section.

Any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of these Terms shall be finally settled by arbitration in Toronto, Ontario, Canada using the English language in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS. The prevailing party in any arbitration or other proceeding arising under this Agreement shall be entitled to receive reimbursement of its reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees and all other expenses) incurred in connection therewith. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in a court having jurisdiction or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be.

You and Net Parents agree to treat the arbitration proceedings and any related discovery confidential.

Binding Arbitration

Other than those matters described under “Exclusions from Arbitration” below, you and we agree that all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms of Use (including the validity, enforceability or scope of this Section), the Website or any content or services thereon (each, a “Dispute”), that cannot be resolved through negotiation in accordance with the “Notice of Dispute; Negotiation” clause below, shall be settled by final binding arbitration, in accordance with the terms of this Section and to the extent permitted by law. Arbitration means that the Dispute will be resolved by a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury. An arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual. You agree that Canadian Federal Arbitration Act applies to this agreement.

Exclusions from Arbitration

YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM FILED BY EITHER PARTY IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE ARBITRATION TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION. WE ALSO BOTH AGREE THAT YOU OR WE MAY BRING SUIT IN COURT TO ENJOIN INFRINGEMENT OR OTHER MISUSE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

Class Action Waiver

YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WE SPECIFICALLY AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER SITE USERS.
