refuse or cancel any such orders whether or not the order has been
confirmed and you have been charged for the sale. If you have already
been charged for the purchase and your order is canceled, we shall
immediately issue a credit to your credit card account or refund the
amount in the manner in which the purchase was made by you. If we have
overcharged for any product, we will issue a refund to you for the
difference between what you were charged and the correct price of the
relevant product.
21. Pricing, Shipping, and Terms of Sale:
Prices
for Products are described on the Site and are incorporated into this
Agreement by reference. All prices are in U.S. dollars. Prices and
Products may change at Win's discretion. Win may offer promotional
discounts from time-to-time. You must agree to the terms of the
promotion in order to be given the discount, and Win reserves the
right to not honor promotional codes if we reasonably suspect abuse. You
agree not to use more than one (1) discount per item, unless such use
is expressly permitted by Win. Title and risk of loss for all Products
ordered by you shall pass to you on Win's shipment to the shipping
carrier. Purchases are subject to Win's Shipping and Return Policy.
Win reserves the right to cancel any order for any Product that for
any reason, including orders that may violate the intellectual property
rights of a third party and will notify the purchaser that the order has
been canceled.
22. Win Embroidery
22.1.
If you are using Win Embroidery, your use of this Site is also
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section.
22.2.
You agree to follow the restrictions below in order to purchase items
through Win Embroidery or to create any public Win Embroidery
Products for sale in the Win marketplace. If you want your Content to
be embroidered on a Product and you do not upload the stitch file to
this Site, Win will calculate the price to convert your Content to a
stitch file and notify you of the price. For the stated fees, you can
then order the stitch file and create a Product with the stitch file. If
you create a public embroidery Product for sale in the marketplace, the
Product will be published on the Site at the time the stitch file is
completed (typically within 24-48 hours but it may be longer).
Conversion of your Content to a stitch file is subject to a one-time
stitch file conversion fee except that you must pay an additional
one-time stitch file conversion fee for any resizing of the stitch file.
EARNINGS AND NON-CONTRIBUTING ACCOUNT FEES
23. Earnings
23.1.
If you participate as a Designer or Associate (as both terms are
defined in the Designer License Agreement), only if and when Win determines that your Account and Stores have remained in compliance with
the Policies (as defined in Section 1.2 hereof) for the entirety of the
period for which payment is made and through to the date that the
payment is issued, Win will pay royalties, referral fees, volume bonus
and any other compensation owed to you (collectively, "Earnings"),
subject to the following:
23.2. Win maintains a statement of your Earnings. You may check your statement in the "My Account" section of your Account.

When Earnings are Earned and Payable: The following conditions must be
met before Earnings are earned and payable by Fiitg to you ("Earned and

Payment Threshold for the payment method you have chosen on your Payment
Settings page (e.g., check or PayPal).
23.3.1.1. "Payment
Thresholds" mean (i) $100 for payments by check and (ii) $50 for
payments using PayPal. Payment Thresholds are subject to change at any
time or from time-to-time, in our sole and absolute discretion. You will
be notified of any change in the Payment Thresholds.
23.3.1.2.
You may request payment of your Earnings even if you have not met the
Payment Thresholds, subject to payment of the following processing fees:
$5.00 for any check under $100; or $2.50 for any PayPal transaction
under $50 (collectively, "Processing Fees").
23.3.1.3. Win, in
its discretion, may change the methods of payment that are available,
and certain methods of payment may not be available for all balances.
23.3.1.4.
Win is subject to PayPal regulations and service restrictions – if
PayPal does not provide service to you or within your desired country,
it will be
necessary for you to select another payment method.
23.3.2.
Provide All Necessary Information: You must provide Win with all
information necessary to process your Earnings payment (e.g., relevant
tax information, proper PayPal account information).
23.3.2.1. In
the event you have not provided us with this information, Win may
withhold payments until you have provided all necessary information.
23.3.2.2.
In the event that a check sent to the address listed as the payee
address in your Account is returned as undeliverable, Win may withhold
further payments until you have corrected or updated your address.
23.3.3.
Have a Non-Negative Earnings Balance: If your payable Earnings become
negative (including but not limited to for any of the following
reasons), Win reserves the right to not pay you Earnings until (i)
your payable Earnings increase to the point where they become positive,
and (ii) they become otherwise payable under the provisions of this
Section 23:
23.3.3.1. If any of your Earnings are associated with
Products that are or are alleged to be infringing of a third party's
rights or are otherwise in violation of the
Policies,Win may do
any of the following without providing a warning or prior notice: (i)
deduct the associated Earnings from your Account; (ii) suspend your
Account and payment of any Earnings; or (iii) deduct all Earnings and
terminate your Account, if we determine (in our sole discretion) that
you are a repeat infringer (See Section 27.9 hereof and our Designer
License Agreement).
23.3.3.2. In the event that an order for
which you were paid Earnings is either cancelled, returned or refunded
for any reason, or if Products that generated a
referral fee are returned by the User, Win will deduct the relevant amount from your Earnings.
23.4. Payment Timing:
23.4.1.
Once Earnings are Earned and Payable, payment will be made within
forty-five (45) days after the end of the relevant month.
23.4.2.
Win will pay your Earnings in accordance with the selections you make
in the "Payment Settings" page in "My Account," and Win makes the
following options available:
23.4.2.1. payment as soon as your Earnings have reached the Payment Thresholds set by Win from time-to-time; or
23.4.2.2. payment prior to reaching the Payment Thresholds, subject to payment of the Processing Fees; or
23.4.2.3.
have your Earnings held in your Account until you choose to have your
payment made (after reaching the Payment Threshold set by Win).
23.5.
Win may apply withholding tax rates to international and domestic
payments that may potentially be higher than otherwise would be due, if
Designers do not provide us with relevant documentation, such as the W9
or W8-BEN form(s).
23.6. Earnings in currencies other than your
selected payment currency: (i) will be converted to your payment
currency and are subject to foreign currency conversion fees; (ii) may
be subject to Payment Thresholds, Processing Fees, and/or
Non-Contributing Account Fees that are slightly different than the
equivalent of what is detailed herein, due to currency conversion rates
and/or the selected payment currency.
24. Non-Contributing Account Fees
24.1.
You, Win and the Site thrive best when we all contribute to provide
the best Content and features to Users. As a result, your Account will
be deemed a "Non-Contributing Account" if you haven't either (i)
published a Public Product, or (ii) had a Referral Sale (as defined in
the Associates Agreement) attributed to your Account in the previous
fifteen (15) month period.
24.2. Your Account may be deemed
"contributing" again at any time, once you publish a Public Product or
have a Referral Sale attributed to your Account.
24.3. Non-Contributing Accounts are subject to a monthly Non-Contributing Account fee ("Non-Contributing Account Fee"):
24.3.1.
Win will determine if your account is subject to the Non-Contributing
Account Fee on midnight PST/PDT of the last day of the previous
calendar month. For example, if your account is determined to be a
Non-Contributing Account as of January 31st, but is deemed contributing
again on February 1st, you will still be charged the Non-Contributing
Account Fee in February.
24.3.2. If applicable, the
Non-Contributing Account Fee will be deducted from your Account's Earned
and Payable Earnings prior to when Earnings are paid.
24.3.3.
Once a Non-Contributing Account Fee has been deducted from your
Account's Earned and Payable Earnings, this deduction cannot be reversed
or refunded.
24.3.4. Non-Contributing Account Fees cannot cause
an Account's Earned and Payable Earnings to become negative, so in the
event that Earned and Payable Earnings are insufficient to cover the
relevant Non-Contributing Account Fee being assessed, Earned and Payable
Earnings will be deducted until the balance is equal to zero.
