PARTNER PROGRAM AGREEMENT
This Partner Program Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered into by and between KleanCierge LLC, a limited liability company providing home concierge services in the Washington, DC metropolitan area and in such additional markets as the Company may from time to time enter (the "Company"), and the individual or entity executing acceptance hereof (the "Partner"). The Company and the Partner are each referred to herein as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties." This Agreement is effective as of the date of the Partner's acceptance hereof (the "Effective Date").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company operates a home concierge services business and maintains a referral program (the "Program") pursuant to which participants may direct prospective clients to the Company;
WHEREAS, the Company confers a discount upon clients enrolling through the Program and does not remit any fee, commission, or other consideration to Program participants; and
WHEREAS, the Partner desires to participate in the Program upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and the Company's grant of access to the Program, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
1. NATURE OF THE PROGRAM; RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES
1.1 Program Participation. The Company hereby grants the Partner a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable privilege to participate in the Program by distributing a referral code issued to the Partner pursuant to Section 2. Upon enrollment of a Referred Client (as defined in Section 3.2) through such code, the Company shall apply a discount to such client's first Eligible Service, as further provided in Section 3.
1.2 No Consideration to Partner. The Partner acknowledges and agrees that the discount conferred hereunder inures solely to the benefit of the Referred Client and not to the Partner, and that the Partner shall receive no fee, commission, override, revenue share, or other remuneration of any kind in connection with this Agreement or the Program.
1.3 Independent Status. The Partner is an independent party. The designation "Partner" constitutes a Program title only and shall not be construed to create, and does not create, any employment, agency, joint venture, partnership, or franchise relationship between the Parties. The Partner possesses no authority, express or implied, to act for or on behalf of the Company, to make any representation or warranty, to quote prices, to commit the Company to the provision of services, to accept payment on the Company's behalf, or otherwise to bind the Company to any obligation whatsoever.
1.4 Tax Matters. The Partner shall be solely responsible for any tax liability arising from the Partner's participation in the Program.
2. REFERRAL CODE
2.1 Issuance. Upon the Partner's acceptance of this Agreement, the Company shall issue to the Partner a referral code and an associated enrollment link (collectively, the "Referral Code").
2.2 Company Discretion. The Company may decline to issue, or may limit, suspend, or deactivate, any Referral Code (a) upon the Partner's breach of this Agreement; (b) where the Company reasonably suspects fraudulent, deceptive, or unlawful referral activity; or (c) upon the Company's modification or discontinuation of the Program.
2.3 Permitted Use. The Partner shall distribute the Referral Code solely to prospective clients whom the Partner personally refers, and solely for the purpose of enabling such persons to enroll with the Company. The Partner shall not publish the Referral Code on any coupon aggregation site, discount directory, or comparable third-party platform without the Company's prior written authorization.
3. DISCOUNT; ATTRIBUTION
3.1 Discount. The Company shall apply a discount to the first Eligible Service purchased by each Referred Client, in such amount as the Company may establish and publish in the Program terms from time to time. The Company reserves the right to modify or discontinue the discount at any time, provided that any client who enrolled prior to such modification shall receive the discount in effect as of the date of such client's enrollment. "Eligible Service" shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Company's client-facing terms of service, as amended from time to time.
3.2 Referred Client. A "Referred Client" means a person or entity that (a) enrolls with the Company using the Partner's Referral Code; (b) was not, as of the date of enrollment, an existing client of the Company and had not contacted the Company within the one hundred eighty (180) days immediately preceding such enrollment; and (c) completes and remits payment in full for a first Eligible Service.
3.3 Attribution. Where two or more Partners assert a claim to the same Referred Client, the earliest recorded use of a Referral Code shall control. In the absence of any such record, the Company shall determine attribution in good faith. The Company shall honor the discount for the benefit of the Referred Client without regard to which Partner is credited.
4. CONFIDENTIALITY
4.1 Definition. "Confidential Information" means client contact information, service details, non-public pricing, business methods, and other non-public information that the Partner acquires through the Company's platform or through the Partner's relationship with the Company.
4.2 Exclusions. Confidential Information shall not include information that (a) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of any act or omission of the Partner; (b) was lawfully known to the Partner prior to receipt from the Company, as the Partner can demonstrate by contemporaneous written record; (c) is received by the Partner from a third party not subject to any duty of confidentiality; or (d) is independently developed by the Partner without use of or reference to the Company's Confidential Information.
4.3 Obligations. The Partner shall not disclose Confidential Information to any third party, nor use Confidential Information for any purpose other than the referral of prospective clients to the Company, during the term hereof and for a period of three (3) years following termination; provided, however, that client contact information and personal data shall remain subject to the obligations of this Section 4 in perpetuity.
4.4 Compelled Disclosure. In the event the Partner is compelled by law or valid legal process to disclose Confidential Information, the Partner shall, to the extent legally permissible, provide the Company with prior written notice sufficient to enable the Company to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, and shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information legally required to be disclosed.
4.5 Return or Destruction. Upon termination of this Agreement, the Partner shall immediately cease all use of Confidential Information and shall, within thirty (30) days, return or destroy all Confidential Information in the Partner's possession or control, and shall certify such destruction in writing upon the Company's request.
5. DATA PROTECTION
5.1 Permitted Processing. The Partner shall process personal information of the Company's clients and prospective clients solely as necessary to effect referrals under this Agreement. The Partner shall not sell, rent, lease, or otherwise disclose such information to any third party.
5.2 Safeguards. The Partner shall implement and maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of such information.
5.3 Independent Purposes Prohibited. The Partner shall not process such information for the Partner's own marketing or for any other purpose absent the separate, documented consent of the individual concerned, obtained independently of the Company.
5.4 Incident Notification. The Partner shall notify the Company in writing within seventy-two (72) hours of discovering any unauthorized access to, acquisition of, or disclosure of personal information of the Company's clients or prospective clients in the Partner's possession or control, and shall cooperate reasonably with the Company's investigation and with any notification the Company determines to be required by applicable law.
6. PARTNER COVENANTS; COMPLIANCE
The Partner covenants and agrees that the Partner shall:
(a) comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws in connection with the Partner's referral and marketing activities, including without limitation the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C.

(d) make no representation that the Partner is licensed, bonded, background-checked, or otherwise vetted by the Company, and no guarantee as to any service outcome;
(e) disclose the Partner's relationship with the Company where required by the Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, 16 C.F.R. Part 255, or by other applicable law; and
(f) refrain from any use of the Company's name, marks, logo, or brand except as the Company may authorize in writing.
The Partner shall conduct all outreach on the Partner's own behalf and not as an agent of the Company.
7. GROUNDS FOR IMMEDIATE TERMINATION
7.1 Grounds. The Company may deactivate the Partner's Referral Code and terminate this Agreement immediately, without notice and without liability, in the event that the Partner:
(a) solicits or diverts any client of the Company away from the Company with respect to services the Company introduced or arranged for such client;
(b) uses Confidential Information to solicit any client of the Company;
(c) breaches any provision of Section 4, Section 5, or Section 6; or
(d) engages in fraudulent referral activity, including without limitation self-referral or the submission of fictitious enrollments.
7.2 Construction. This Section 7 establishes conditions of continued Program participation and shall not be construed as a covenant not to compete, a covenant against solicitation, or any other restraint upon the Partner's trade or business. Nothing in this Agreement restricts the work the Partner may accept, the persons from whom the Partner may accept it, or the timing thereof, whether during the term hereof or following termination. The Partner's obligations under Section 4 and Section 5 survive in accordance with their terms.
8. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
The Company's services are furnished to clients pursuant to the Company's own terms of service. THE COMPANY MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY TO THE PARTNER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY, QUALITY, OR OUTCOME OF ANY SERVICE, THE APPROVAL OR CONTINUATION OF ANY REFERRAL CODE, THE AMOUNT OF ANY DISCOUNT, OR ANY LEVEL OF REFERRAL VOLUME. THE PROGRAM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," AND THE COMPANY HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF.
