You should know that certain forms of advertising are always prohibited by Power
Arm Performance. For example, advertising commonly referred to as
"spamming" is unacceptable to us and could cause damage to our name.
Another generally prohibited form of advertising includes the use of
unsolicited commercial email (UCE), In addition, you may not advertise in any
way that effectively conceals or misrepresents your identity, your domain name,
or your return email address. You may use mailings to customers to promote Power
Arm Performance so long as the recipient is already a customer or subscriber of
your services or web site, and recipients have the option to remove themselves
from future mailings. Also, you may post to social media groups, forums and
other public platforms to promote Power Arm Performance so long as these
platforms specifically welcome commercial messages. At all times, you must
clearly represent yourself and your web sites as independent from powerarmperformance.com.
If it comes to our attention that you are spamming, we will consider that cause
for immediate termination of this Agreement and your participation in the Power
Arm Performance Brand Ambassador Program. Any pending balances owed to you will
not be paid if your account is terminated due to such unacceptable advertising
or solicitation.

these – be it separately or in combination with other keywords – and do not
direct the traffic from such campaigns to their own website prior to
re-directing it to ours, will be considered trademark violators, and will be
banned from the Power Arm Performance Brand Ambassador Program. We will do
everything possible to contact the affiliate prior to the ban. However, we
