Mentally Awake Affiliate Program Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: October 29, 2025

This Affiliate Program Agreement (the “Agreement”) contains the complete terms and conditions that apply to an individual’s or entity’s participation in the Mentally Awake Affiliate Program (the “Program”). As used in this Agreement, “we,” “us,” or “Mentally Awake” means Mentally Awake (owned and operated by Mark Sharman), and “you,” “your,” or “Affiliate” means the affiliate participant.

By submitting an application to join the Mentally Awake Affiliate Program, you agree to comply with and be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Please read this Agreement carefully.

1. Enrollment in the Program

1.1. To begin the enrollment process, you must submit a complete Program application via our affiliate platform (SliceWP). We will evaluate your application in good faith and will notify you of your acceptance or rejection. We may reject your application at our sole discretion, including if we determine that your website or promotional methods are unsuitable for our Program for any reason.

1.2. Unsuitable promotional methods may include, but are not limited to, those that:

  • Promote sexually explicit materials
  • Promote violence
  • Promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age
  • Promote illegal activities
  • Incorporate any materials which infringe or assist others to infringe on any copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights or to violate the law
  • Are otherwise in any way unlawful, harmful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, harassing, or racially, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable to us in our sole discretion.
  • Contain software downloads that potentially enable diversions of commission from other affiliates in our program.
  • You may not create or design your website or any other website that you operate, explicitly or implied in a manner which resembles our website nor design your website in a manner which leads customers to believe you are Mentally Awake or any other affiliated business.

2. Affiliate Obligations

2.1. As a member of the Program, you will have access to unique affiliate links provided through the SliceWP affiliate dashboard. You are responsible for ensuring these links are properly implemented.

2.2. FTC Disclosure: You must comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines concerning endorsements and testimonials. You must clearly and conspicuously disclose your affiliate relationship with Mentally Awake whenever you promote or share your affiliate links. This disclosure should appear near the link or promotion itself. Examples include using “#ad”, “#sponsored”, or stating “As a Mentally Awake affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.” Failure to comply with these disclosure requirements may result in termination from the Program.

2.3. You are solely responsible for the development, operation, and maintenance of your site and for all materials that appear on your site or are used in your promotions. You will ensure that materials posted on your site or used in promotions do not violate or infringe upon the rights of any third party and are not libelous or otherwise illegal.

2.4. You agree not to engage in any form of spamming or unsolicited commercial email.

2.5. You agree not to bid on keywords containing “Mentally Awake” or variations/misspellings thereof in any pay-per-click (PPC) advertising network (e.g., Google Ads, Bing Ads) without prior written permission. You may not use your affiliate link as the display URL in PPC ads.

2.6. USA Based: Participation in the Mentally Awake Affiliate Program is currently limited to individuals and entities based within the United States. You must provide valid US-based payment information to receive commissions.

3. Mentally Awake Rights and Obligations

3.1. We have the right to monitor your site and promotional methods at any time to determine if you are following the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

3.2. We reserve the right to modify or terminate the Program or this Agreement at any time, with notice. If significant changes are made, we will notify affiliates via email or through the affiliate dashboard. Your continued participation in the Program following our posting of a change notice or new Agreement will constitute binding acceptance of the change.

3.3. Mentally Awake will provide you with unique tracking links and access to the SliceWP dashboard to monitor clicks, sales, and commissions earned.

3.4. Mentally Awake will be responsible for processing orders, handling customer service, and tracking sales generated through your affiliate links.

4. Commissions and Payment

4.1. Commission Rate: You will earn a commission of 20% on the net sale price (excluding taxes, shipping, and any discounts) of qualifying Mentally Awake products purchased by customers who arrive at mentallyawake.com through your unique affiliate link.

4.2. Tracking Period (Cookie Duration): Commissions are earned only on purchases made within 180 days of the customer first clicking your affiliate link, provided the affiliate cookie remains active and is the last affiliate cookie recorded for that customer.

4.3. Eligibility and Refunds: A commission is earned only on completed and valid sales. Due to our 21-day refund period, commissions will initially appear as “pending.” A commission becomes eligible for payout only after this 21-day period has passed without the customer requesting a refund. Commissions on refunded orders will be voided.

4.4. Payment Schedule: Commissions are calculated on a monthly basis (e.g., commissions finalized in October will be calculated at the beginning of November). Payments are processed approximately 15-30 days after the end of the calculation month (e.g., October commissions paid mid-to-late November).

4.5. Minimum Payout: A minimum commission balance of $20.00 USD is required before a payout will be issued. Balances below $20.00 will automatically roll over to the next payment cycle and accumulate until the threshold is met.

4.6. Payment Method: Payments will be made via direct bank transfer (ACH) or check to the US-based payment details you provide. When your first commission payout is due (i.e., your balance reaches $20.00 and includes finalized commissions), you will receive instructions via email on how to securely submit your payment information through the SliceWP affiliate dashboard or a designated secure method. You are responsible for ensuring your payment information is accurate and up-to-date.

4.7. Self-Referrals: You are not eligible to earn commissions on purchases made by yourself or using your own affiliate link.

4.8. Disputes: If you have questions about or dispute any commission calculation, you must notify Mentally Awake in writing within thirty (30) days of the relevant payment date.

4.9. Attribution (First Click): Our affiliate tracking system operates on a “first click” attribution model within the 180-day cookie window. This means if a customer clicks on multiple affiliate links before making a purchase, the commission for that sale will be credited to the affiliate whose link was clicked *first*.

4.10. Tracking Disclaimer: The accurate tracking of commissions depends on the use of cookies and the proper functioning of the SliceWP affiliate system. Mentally Awake is not liable for any loss of commissions resulting from factors beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: the customer clearing their browser cache or cookies, using browsers or software that block cookies or tracking, technical failures in the tracking system, or incorrectly implemented affiliate links by the Affiliate.

5. Term and Termination

5.1. The term of this Agreement will begin upon our acceptance of your Program application and will end when terminated by either party.

5.2. Either you or we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the other party written notice of termination.

5.3. Upon termination, you must immediately cease using and remove all affiliate links, logos, and promotional materials related to Mentally Awake.

5.4. Commissions earned through the date of termination will remain payable only if the related orders are not canceled or refunded and meet all other terms of this Agreement. We may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount is paid.

5.5. We reserve the right to terminate your participation in the Program immediately if you violate any terms of this Agreement or engage in any fraudulent or harmful activity.

6. Modification

We may modify any of the terms and conditions in this Agreement at any time at our sole discretion. In such event, you will be notified by email or via the affiliate dashboard. Modifications may include, but are not limited to, changes in the payment procedures and Program rules. If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only option is to end your participation in the Program. Your continued participation in Program following the posting of the change notice or new Agreement will indicate your agreement to the changes.

7. Relationship of Parties

You and Mentally Awake are independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement will create any partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, sales representative, or employment relationship between the parties. You will have no authority to make or accept any offers or representations on our behalf.

8. Limitation of Liability

We will not be liable for indirect, special, or consequential damages (or any loss of revenue, profits, or data) arising in connection with this Agreement or the Program, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Further, our aggregate liability arising with respect to this Agreement and the Program will not exceed the total commissions paid or payable to you under this Agreement in the six (6) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

9. Disclaimers

We make no express or implied warranties or representations with respect to the Program or any products sold through the Program (including, without limitation, warranties of fitness, merchantability, noninfringement, or any implied warranties arising out of a course of performance, dealing, or trade usage). In addition, we make no representation that the operation of the Mentally Awake website will be uninterrupted or error-free, and we will not be liable for the consequences of any interruptions or errors.

10. Indemnification

You hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Mentally Awake, and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their directors, officers, employees, agents, shareholders, partners, members, and other owners, against any and all claims, actions, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (any or all of the foregoing hereinafter referred to as “Losses”) insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based on (i) any claim that your use of our trademarks infringes on any trademark, trade name, service mark, copyright, license, intellectual property, or other proprietary right of any third party, (ii) any misrepresentation of a representation or warranty or breach of a covenant and agreement made by you herein, or (iii) any claim related to your site, including, without limitation, content therein not attributable to us.

11. Governing Law

This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without reference to rules governing choice of laws. Any action relating to this Agreement must be brought in the federal or state courts located in Hillsborough County, Florida, and you irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of such courts.

12. Miscellaneous

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Mentally Awake concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent necessary such that the intent of the parties is effectuated, and the remainder of this agreement shall have full force and effect.
