ACCRUAL OF DISCOUNTS
5. Members will be credited, subject to the terms and conditions
enumerated in this Agreement, a percentage of the net purchases made
by you at one of the online merchants affiliated with Gabbadoo (an "Affiliated
Merchant"). The percentage will be enumerated on the Gabbadoo Web
site as it relates to each Affiliated Merchant. The net purchase is defined
as the total amount paid to the merchant minus tax, gift wrapping, shipping,
promotional credits, returns, cancellations, and transaction fees or
as the Affiliated Merchant defines on their respective Web site and as
is enumerated in their respective Affiliate Membership and/or Operating
Agreement document, whichever is less. All Affiliated Merchant Membership
and/or Operating Agreements as they relate to their affiliate or partner
programs with Gabbadoo and which reside on the Affiliated Merchant's
respective Web sites are hereby incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
6. As a Member, purchases made through Gabbadoo Affiliated
Merchants will be deemed a "Qualified Purchase" and will be subject
to earn a cash back reward if and only if all of the following criteria
are satisfied: 1) "Cookies", both first and third party (if applicable),
must be enabled on your Web browser. 2) All potential Qualified Purchases
must begin by clicking on the Affiliated Merchant's link that appears on
the Gabbadoo Web site and being successfully connected to the Affiliated
Merchant's Web site based upon that click. Individuals who download the
Software may on occasion be excepted from the terms of section 6(2), as
their browser will in some instances link directly to the merchant through
the correct link. The Software is only a shopping reminder service provided
by Gabbadoo; for reliability of tracking we recommend you start your shopping
trip at the Gabbadoo.com website. 3) Gabbadoo may, at all times, route
your request for a merchant site through specific links, in order to assure
that the sale can be tracked correctly. Any alteration of these links will
invalidate your sale, which will not be deemed a Qualified Purchase. 5)
All purchases must be started and completed in one shopping session within
the Gabbadoo shopping program. If you start a purchase, then complete it
in a different session, you will be ineligible for a rebate. 5) Users must
not use coupons not listed on the Gabbadoo website. 6) Items must not be
returned. If they are, the initial purchase will be invalidated and not
be deemed a Qualified Purchase.
7. The determination of whether or not a purchase made through
a Gabbadoo Affiliated Merchant is a "Qualified Purchase" is at
the sole discretion of Gabbadoo.
8. "Account Activation" is completed upon the making of a Qualified
Purchase at any Gabbadoo merchant site. In case of return or cancellation,
Gabbadoo retains the right to reverse account credit.
9. If an Affiliated Merchant fails to report a transaction
to Gabbadoo, or withholds payment to Gabbadoo for a particular transaction
for any reason, Gabbadoo reserves the right to cancel the cash back reward
associated with that transaction. Cash back rewards awarded to Members
are subject to adjustments for returns, cancellations, and other events.
Such adjustments can be applied to Member accounts at any time by Gabbadoo
at its sole discretion. Should you disagree with any adjustments made to
your account, your sole remedy is to withdraw from the Program.
10. You may be taxed on your accrual of cash back rewards,
depending on the amount of cash back rewards you accrue and the tax laws
of federal, state, and local jurisdictions. Gabbadoo may choose to provide
you with those notices to you on occasion. In all instances, you will be
solely responsible for any and all tax liability arising out of your accrual
or redemption of cash back rewards.
11. There are a number of purchases that are not eligible for
accrual or payment of cash back rewards. For a complete list, read our FAQ page that lists ineligible purchases.
12. It is your responsibility to check your account regularly
to ensure that cash back rewards have been properly credited and that your
account balance is accurate. If you do not believe that a cash back reward
has been correctly credited to your accout you must wait at least 30 days
but no more than 90 days after completing a Qualifying Purchase to contact
Gabbadoo Customer Care. Furthermore, all cash back rewards earned by Members
are subject to review. Necessary adjustments may be applied to Member accounts
at any time by Gabbadoo at its sole discretion. If you do not agree to
adjustments made to your account, your only recourse will be to terminate
your membership in the Program. Gabbadoo reserves the right to terminate
any account for abusive or fraudulent activity, or if the Member is no
longer reachable at the e-mail address provided.
13. Gabbadoo is not responsible for changes to, or discontinuance
of, any Affiliated Merchant, or any Affiliated Merchant withdrawal from
the Program, or for any effect on accrual of cash back rewards caused by
such changes, discontinuance, or withdrawal. Gabbadoo is not responsible
for changes to, or discontinuance of, any special offer or coupon code
at an Affiliated Merchant site. It is the Member's responsibility to make
sure that all specials are valid. If you choose to use coupons and specials
that are not listed on the Gabbadoo site, we cannot guarantee that you
will be eligible to receive an Gabbadoo cash back reward on your purchases.

PAYMENT SCHEDULE
14. Money earned through the referral program will be paid
along with regular cash back rewards. Continued payments of referral
monies will be made at the sole discretion of Gabbadoo. The referral
program may be ended, percentages reduced or the program modified in
any way, at any point, and without notice, though all accrued referral
monies will be paid in full if and when this occurs.
15. Every month Gabbadoo sends to its members the Cash
Back that they have earned,
provided that the member has earned at least $15.00 in Cash Back Rewards.
Accrued cash back rewards will be dispersed to the Members on or around the 15th
day of each month. Some merchants may have a 45 day return policy, therefore Cash Back rewards will become eligible to be paid out
75 days after purchases are posted to members' accounts. Qualified purchases
from all other merchants which occur within the 45 day cutoff period will
be paid on the payment date subsequent to the next payment date.
16. It is your responsibility to keep your account information
current in order to facilitate the payment of your cash back rewards. In
the event that your information is not current at the time of payment,
you forfeit all accrued cash back rewards to Gabbadoo. Gabbadoo can pay
you by putting your savings in your PayPal account as well. Simply make
the changes to your account preferences and add your PayPal account information.
If an error occurs in payment, Gabbadoo Customer Service will assist members
in determining the cause of any non-payment, be it by PayPal or check.
If it has been determined that non-payment was caused by a process error
in payment automation or other cause that was our fault, all accrued cash
back rewards will be re-paid to you in full. However, Gabbadoo is not responsible
for any misapplied PayPal payments or checks sent to the wrong address
and subsequently cashed if these errors were caused by inaccurate email
or contact information provided by the user. We are also not liable for
errors made by PayPal in applying your payment, though we will work hard
to resolve any such issues should they arise.

DISCLOSURE OF ACCOUNT INFORMATION
20. You authorize Gabbadoo to only disclose to third parties
information you have provided, or information that Gabbadoo has obtained
about your Gabbadoo account or shopping behavior: (i) to agents and licensors
of Gabbadoo or its affiliates, such as independent auditors, consultants
or attorneys; (ii) to comply with government agency or court orders or
requests; (iii) in providing aggregated and non-personalized marketing
services for an advertising or merchant partner, or (iv) where it is necessary
for redemption or transfer of your cash back rewards. Further, you authorize
Gabbadoo to receive any account information from any Affiliated Merchant
including, but not limited to information regarding purchases made, items
searched for or added to your shopping cart, products ordered, order number,
the time and date the purchase occurred, and the email address entered
for the purchase. You agree to hold the Affiliated Merchant harmless for
any information disclosed to Gabbadoo. You allow Gabbadoo to collect and
use non- personalized marketing information regarding visits and related
to and purchases made from internet commerce sites.
21. By signing up for membership at Gabbadoo, you agree to
receive communications that are account and membership related (e.g. that
we've added money to your account, that we are mailing you a check on a
certain date, that new features are available on the Gabbadoo site, etc)
as well as periodic shopping-related emails that highlight coupons & special
deals that are available to Gabbadoo members. You can opt-out of receiving
emails that are not account-related by either (i) visiting your account
page and clicking on the Profile link, or (ii) following the unsubscribe
link on any of the emails. Since we need to communicate account information
with you in order to operate our service, you can't unsubscribe from account
information emails. But rest assured that we don't send account emails
unnecessarily. These are not promotional emails, and are only used to notify
you that a check is on the way, that we put money in your account, that
we need a mailing address to send your check to, that we mailed you a check
and it came back to us as having a bad address, and so forth. If you don't
wish to ever hear from us, even if just to hear that we tracked your purchase
and awarded you Cash Back, you can close down your account by contacting
customer service. But frankly we'll be quite offended.
