Disc Makers' Partner Program Terms and Conditions
 
Partner Program Eligibility
The Disc Makers’ Studio Partner Program and Video Partner Program are open to any studio, mastering house, video facility or other company involved with the production of replicated CDs and DVDs for their clients.

Term of Agreement
The term of this Partner Program agreement commences upon Disc Makers’ acceptance of the Partner’s enrollment application. Either party may terminate this agreement and a Partner’s participation in the program at any time, with or without cause, with notice thereafter in writing via mail or email. Partner referrals accepted prior to termination shall continue to be covered by this agreement.

Applicants may complete a Partner Program enrollment application form online at www.discmakers.com/music/spp/requestmoreinfo.asp or by mailing or faxing it to Disc Makers at 7905 N. Route 130, Pennsauken, NJ 08110-1402; fax: 856-661-3450. If accepted into the program, the Partner will receive a welcome kit and information about the program.

Basic Agreements

• Pay a Partner a referral commission for accepted referrals linked to Partners on CD and DVD replication orders under the rates and terms described below.
• Supply approved graphics/links for use on Partners’ website.
• Provide a free commemorative plaque to the referring Partner and its client and/or artist.
• Allow Partner access to post their studio information on StudioFinder.com.

Partner agrees to:
• Refer clients to Disc Makers for CD and DVD replication by methods listed below in the Partner Referrals section.
• When possible, provide Disc Makers with a master onto a Disc Makers Partner CD-R or DVD-R.
• Provide and maintain on file with Disc Makers the current Partner address and other contact information, including Partner’s federal tax identification number.
• Place Disc Makers’ banners and/or text links on Partner’s website, and ensure that materials posted on its website are owned by Partner or Partner has written permission for its use.

Partner Referrals
Partner must notify Disc Makers of a referred project before or while the project is still in-house for production by Disc Makers. To register or track a customer referral, see Disc Makers My Account/Partner Panel/Submit or View Referrals.

A Partner may use one of the following methods to register a client referral and must provide Disc Makers with accurate client referral contact and project information:
• PREFERRED: Correctly fill out and submit master using Disc Makers Partner CD-R or DVD-R
• Via Disc Makers My Account/Partner Panel/Submit or View Referrals.
• Via mail or fax the Partner/Client referral form

Referrals are also accepted via written confirmation from the Partner’s client when properly noted on accepted quotes and orders.

Each project requires a separate referral from the Partner or client. Partners and clients are not automatically linked together based upon past referrals. Disc Makers reserves the exclusive right to determine commission payouts to those projects in which two or more Partners are claiming a referral for the same project. Only one commission will be paid per referral.

A Partner shall be entitled to a referral commission for client projects first referred after the date the Partner has been accepted into the program by Disc Makers. A Partner shall not be due a referral commission for projects referred before the Partner is accepted by Disc Makers as a Partner.

A Partner can view client projects referred, including which client projects are linked to the Partner and the project’s status, by visiting www.discmakers.com/myaccount. It is the Partners’ responsibility to track referral projects (including whether the project is linked to Partner under the Partner Program), and to promptly notify Disc Makers of any claimed errors or discrepancies. Disc Makers is not responsible for any referrals that are not linked to a Partner for any reason, without limitation including any inaccurate information provided by the Partner and/or the client such as incorrect client names or contact information.

A Partner shall burn the supplied master onto a DiscMakers Partner CD-R or DVD-R when possible.

Referral Commissions
Disc Makers will pay a referral commission for each client’s qualified replication project accepted under the Partner Program via the methods described herein. Referral commissions are not paid for CD or DVD replication re-orders, duplication orders, or for any other non-replication orders (such as hardware of consumable orders). Referral commissions are also not paid in combination with any other Partner discounts or special offers. Maximum commission paid out per order is $1000.

Referral commissions are paid as follows based upon the number of qualified replication referrals made by a Partner during the term of this agreement on receipts collected:
 
Standard Partner 1st referral $50 flat commission
Gold Partner 2nd, 3rd, 4th referrals 5% of applicable charges
Platinum Partner 5 and beyond 6% of applicable charges
 

Payment Procedures and Forfeitures
Disc Makers will issue a confirmation via the Partner’s email address on record within five (5) days after the completion of the qualified order linked to Partner. The referral commission check will be sent to the Partner’s address listed if the Partner confirms receipt of Disc Makers’ confirmation email within twenty-one (21) days.

The Partner must respond to confirm the Partner’s address and contact information or to update the information accordingly. Disc Makers will only issue a check and mail it to the Partner’s confirmed address. The payable check information must match the supplied tax information.

Partners can reactivate their status by contacting Disc Makers updating their account. At its option, Disc Makers may also make one attempt to reach the Partner by phone. Partners will have to reapply to the Disc Makers Partner Program to qualify for future referrals.

Disc Makers will reissue replacement checks after thirty days and confirmation that the check has not been paid. The cost of a stop payment order will be deducted from the commission if Partner’s address confirmation was inaccurate.

Partner Plaques
Disc Makers will provide the Partner with an Official Welcome Plaque upon completion of their first referred project. Disc Makers will provide both the Partner and the referred client with a commemorative plaque provided the project is properly identified and registered as a qualified partner referral prior to the projects completion. Extra plaques can be purchased at the rate of $38.00 per plaque.

Plaques returned due to incorrect address information or otherwise determined undeliverable, will be held for a limited time. One (1) phone call attempt will be made to obtain correct information.
