The following terms are defined for the purposes of this agreement between Themes.com and the Affiliate:
Account: legitimate participation in the Themes.com Affiliate Program pursuant to registration by the Affiliate with full and accurate indication of the content registration information – including the indication of the main domain and the applicable substantive description of the Affiliate site.
Valid Click: a click is valid if a User on a Affiliate website voluntarily and knowingly clicks on a tracking link for the Themes.com Affiliate Program and is directed to the Themes.com website. Determination of valid clicks is based on the Themes.com transaction log system and verified by Themes.com with reasonable discretion.

Valid sales are determined like valid clicks using the Themes.com transaction log system and verified by Themes.com with reasonable discretion.
Tracking-Link: employed by the Themes.com Affiliate Program for use by the Affiliate such that the Affiliate may present content on its website identifying reference to the Themes.com website. The link is used exclusively by Affiliates in its unchanged form.
Tracking-Cookie: with a valid click on a tracking link, a tracking cookie is downloaded on the User’s computer if permitted by the browser settings. The tracking cookie contains information about the last valid clicks and, through the Themes.com transaction log system, can be used to retroactively credit the valid sale to the Affiliate.
User: any natural person who voluntarily and knowingly, without coercion or deception from the Affiliate or third-party compensation, with the exception of a Themes.com-designated bonus system, visits the Affiliate website and, subsequently through a tracking link, the Themes.com website.
