Cloud Winnings Affiliate Policy

Affiliate Program Agreement

By engaging with Cloud Winnings’ affiliate marketing program (“Program”), using the Cloud Winnings platform (“Platform”), clicking “Create an Account,” making a purchase, or registering using a referral code (whether your own or another user’s), you agree that you are an Affiliate of Cloud Winnings Inc. (“Cloud Winnings,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) and are bound by the terms of this Affiliate Program Agreement (“Agreement”).

Any user who uses their own referral code or the referral code of another person to create an account on Cloudwinnings.com is automatically deemed an Affiliate under this Agreement. Affiliates may be displayed on the leaderboard during Referral Competitions, which are part of a patent pending referral leaderboard system operated exclusively by Cloud Winnings. Placement on the leaderboard does not guarantee rewards, and all rankings are subject to verification and potential adjustment.

This Agreement is a binding contract between you (“Affiliate”), Cloud Winnings Inc., and, where applicable, our approved third-party partners. Failure to comply with any part of this Agreement may result in removal from the Program, loss of leaderboard position, forfeiture of earned entries, or other actions at Cloud Winnings’ sole discretion.

Cloud Winnings may update or revise this Agreement at any time. Updates will be communicated via the Platform, by posting on our website, or through other reasonable means. Significant changes may also be sent via email or in-app notifications. Your continued participation in the Program after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

If you do not agree with any provision of this Agreement, do not create an account, use a referral code, or participate in any way in the Cloud Winnings Affiliate Program.

Right to Modify Agreement

Cloud Winnings Inc. reserves the right to amend, modify, or update this Agreement, including any incorporated policies, at any time and at its sole discretion. Any such changes will be effective immediately upon posting to the Cloud Winnings Platform or related websites, unless otherwise stated.

Your continued participation in the Affiliate Program, use of a referral code, or engagement with the Platform after any changes have been posted constitutes your full and binding acceptance of the updated Agreement.
