Marketing Guidelines
Our marketing guidelines are very flexible, but we ask all affiliates to please adhere to a few basic rules:
- Please do not make any false claims about the product, prices, manufacturer or the Lemon brand.
- If using product imagery taken from the website lemoncymbals.co.uk, we ask that you do not add any overlays, inset images or text to these.
- Please do not mislead your audience with incorrect information.
We (the Merchant) may change these guidelines without notice, so please check back regularly to ensure you are meeting the basic minimum requirements with your marketing material.
If an affiliate is found to be in serious breach of these guidelines, or if the affiliate is deemed not to be acting in the best interests of the Merchant, the merchant reserves the right cancel the affiliates account immediately and without notice and any commissions due will be considered void and not paid.
