This MTZ Partners Program Agreement (the “Agreement”) governs your participation in the Program. The Agreement incorporates the MTZ Partners Policies (the “Policies”), which are detailed below. By registering for or using the Program, you acknowledge and agree to be bound by both the Agreement and the Policies, recognizing them as binding and unified terms of your participation. We may update these terms from time to time.
1. Program Overview
The Program allows you to earn commissions by promoting Mastering the Zodiac's true sidereal reports through your website, social media, or other approved channels (“Your Platform”) using specialized tracking links provided by us (“Partners Links”).

MTZ Partners Policies
Commission Income
1. Qualifying Purchases and Commission
As an MTZ Partner, you'll earn commission based on "Qualifying Purchases," which are tracked through the unique Partners Links provided to you. Qualifying Purchases are made when a visitor clicks through your unique Partners Link to the Mastering the Zodiac website and completes a purchase of a true sidereal report.
The session begins upon clicking through the Partners Link and ends when the user navigates away from our website, manually enters a new url, or when any order is placed on our website (including non-Qualifying Purchases). The "Commission" is calculated as a flat rate per purchase: $40 for each full-priced true sidereal report and $20 for each discounted report purchase.
2. Disqualified Purchases
Certain purchases may not qualify for Commission under the following circumstances: any purchase made after the termination of your agreement; orders that are canceled, returned, or refunded; purchases made through unauthorized links or methods that circumvent the intent of the MTZ Partners Program.
3. Commission Rates and Payments
You will receive Commission payments for each calendar month in USD, exclusively via PayPal, for all Qualifying Purchases during that calendar month. Payments will be issued approximately 30 to 60 days following the end of each calendar month. In rare circumstances, payouts may take longer due to unforeseen issues. We commit to communicating any delays promptly and will make every effort to minimize inconvenience.
Please be aware that notifications regarding payouts will be sent directly from PayPal to your PayPal email address. The notes section will include the total number of sales attributed to your Partners Links for the payout period. Partners have 30 days to claim funds after receiving this notification. Any funds not claimed within this 30-day period will be considered forfeited. We are not responsible for any errors or inability to access your PayPal email, PayPal account, or payout funds.
In the event of issues with PayPal on our side, we may request an alternative payment method to ensure timely payment.
In the event of cancellations, returns, or refunds for purchases previously qualifying for a Commission, the refund amount may be deducted from future payouts.
4. Commission Income Limitations and Adjustments
MTZ reserves the right to impose limitations on earning Commission in certain circumstances or to adjust Commission rates as necessary. Any such changes will be communicated in advance through updates to this agreement or other official channels.
Participation Requirements
1. Enrollment and Eligibility
Please complete the MTZ Partners Application, ensuring you provide accurate and thorough details regarding your content, audience, and platform strategy. Your Platform must feature original content, which we define as content uniquely created by you or your team and not widely replicated across other platforms. It is essential to clearly identify your Platform(s) within your application to facilitate our review process.
After submitting your application, we will conduct a review based on the alignment of your Platform with our brand values and objectives. Should your application not be accepted, we are committed to providing brief feedback to support your future endeavors.
2. Responsibility for Your Account Details
Your account details, including your contact information, PayPal email, and Platform identification, must be kept accurate and up-to-date. Communications from us will be sent to the email address linked to your account, and payments will be made to the PayPal email provided. It is your responsibility to maintain the validity of your account details. We are not responsible for any issues arising from inaccurate or outdated information.
You can update your account details by emailing [email protected]. Please ensure receipt of such email and note that it may take up to 1-2 weeks for any changes to be fully processed and reflected in our systems.
3. Links on Your Platform
Upon acceptance into the MTZ Partners Program, you are authorized to incorporate Partners Links on platforms that have been explicitly approved by us. Each specific platform where you intend to use Partners Links, whether owned directly by you or a third-party platform such as social media, must receive our direct approval to ensure compliance and alignment with our brand values. This requirement is crucial for maintaining the integrity of our program and ensuring the effective tracking, reporting, and accumulation of Commission income.
It is your responsibility to ensure that the use of Partners Links on any platform, including third-party platforms, is in compliance not only with our guidelines but also with the terms of use, policies, and guidelines of the platform itself. Failure to comply with the rules of the approved platforms may result in termination of your participation in the Program.
Partners Links must utilize the assigned MTZ Partner ID for proper functionality. General Link Requirements mandate that you alone are responsible for the placement, content, and style of each link. Compliance with our guidelines is essential for effective tracking and referrals.
4. Responsibility for Your Platform
The maintenance, content, and overall operation of your Platforms are solely your responsibility. This includes, but is not limited to, the technical operation and compliance with laws and guidelines related to online conduct and content; accurate representation and placement of Partners Links, adhering to our program and legal requirements; ensuring that content does not infringe on any rights and adheres to all applicable laws and guidelines.

Use of Partners Links in paid online advertising platforms, including but not limited to Google AdWords, Facebook Ads, and Bing Ads, is also strictly prohibited.
Partners Links can be included in email communications, provided these communications are opted into by the recipient and adhere strictly to our guidelines, as well as legal marketing standards.
