9. Compliance

It is the intent of Alka-White® Mouthwash, LLC to treat our customers fairly and to comply fully with all Federal Trade Commission’s regulations related to advertising. As such, we require that our Publishers comply with these regulations, including, but not limited to: Federal Trade Commission 16 CFR Part 255: Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (“FTC Endorsement Guide”), which require, among other criteria, that material connection between advertisers and endorsers be disclosed. This means that directories, review/rating websites, blogs, and other websites, e-mail or collateral, that purpose to provide an endorsement or assessment of an advertiser must prominently disclose the fact that financial or in-kind compensation is provided from the advertiser.

In order to participate in any Publisher Program offered through the Alka-White® Mouthwash, LLC Affiliate Program, you hereby agree that (i) you will at all times adhere to the FTC Endorsement Guides; (ii) your participating website(s) and communications in connection therewith will reflect your honest views, opinions, and experiences; and (iii) you will disclose your affiliate relationship with the applicable Network Advertiser when discussing such Network Advertiser or its products (collectively, “Network Products”), whether directly or indirectly.

You further agree that all such disclosures will comply with the following four (4) standards:

(1) Frequency

Placing one disclosure on your homepage or one link to the disclosure in your footer is not enough. Disclosures must be placed on every page of your website where there appears a review, recommendation, comment, or article that promotes a product for which you receive any form of compensation.

(2) Clarity

The disclosure must immediately make it clear to the user or reader that you are compensated for your review. You may include other information in your disclosure, such as whether you personally tested the product or that your review is honest, but you must disclose the fact that you are being compensated for your review first, at the beginning of said disclosure, and clearly. It should not be hidden in long sections of text or some other legal disclosure(s).

(3) Conspicuousness

The disclosure must be conspicuous and easy to see on your website. Stated simply, the disclosure must stand out from the immediate surrounding space of your website where the disclosure appears. The disclosure must stand out from other text on the page as well so that the disclosure is immediately evident to all visitors, users, and/or readers. The disclosure text must be as large or large than the main text. The disclosure text must be colored (not black or gray) and contrast with both its background and the main text. The disclosure must not be lighter than its background or the main text. Finally, the disclosure must begin with the word “disclosure.”

(4) Freedom from Required Action

Your disclosure must be immediately visible to anyone who visits your review or endorsements. The visitor should not be required to take any action to view your disclosure. Such actions include, but are not limited to: (i) scrolling, which specifically means that your disclosure must appear “above the fold” and the visitor does not have to scroll down to see the disclosure; or (ii) clicking, which specifically means the visitor does not have to click a link to view the disclosure.

You are advised to seek and obtain your own legal counsel and advice on how these rules apply to your website or other promotional activities for which you receive compensation.

Alka-White® Mouthwash, LLC reserves the right to withhold commission fees or may suspend or terminate your participation in the Alka-White® Mouthwash, LLC Affiliate Program should we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, that you are not in compliance with the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) rules and regulations.
