I. How Do Payments Work on POPCUSTOMS?

Summary: POPCUSTOMS will only charge you fees if you subscribe to a POPCUSTOMS Membership Premium Plan. No products are produced or shipped unless payment for those products has first been received via credit/debit, or from an existing POPCUSTOMS balance. Users have the option to change settings for when and how often they are charged. You cannot withdraw “points” or “coupons” or ” discounts”.

Unless Users subscribe to the POPCUSTOMS Membership Premium Plan, there are no fees or charges for the platform itself.

To order samples of Your Products or to fulfill any Customer Orders, You must pay for the Order in advance. The price You pay will be the price of the Product plus shipping and taxes (if applicable). These prices can be found in the POPCUSTOMS Catalog and on our Shipping Rates page. Orders will not be processed until payment has been received by POPCUSTOMS.

POPCUSTOMS cannot pull funds that You may have available in any Sales Channel. In order to process payments on POPCUSTOMS, You need to either have a Credit or Debit card on file or connect POPCUSTOMS to your PayPal/Payoneer/ Bank account. By default, POPCUSTOMS will charge funds for Orders from an existing POPCUSTOMS balance first, and if there is a remaining balance due then POPCUSTOMS will charge any saved Credit or Debit cards.

POPCUSTOMS charges Users when Orders are sent to production. Users have the option to change their settings to adjust how often Orders are sent to production and whether POPCUSTOMS charges per Order or for multiple Orders together. These settings can be found here, after You create an account and connect a Sales Channel.

POPCUSTOMS may issue a coupon. A coupon is virtual money that can be used for paying for manual and sample orders. You may use a coupon only for a single order. Multiple coupons cannot be combined. Each coupon’s value is divided according to the total line items in the order. It cannot be converted to cash or withdrawn.

If you have an issue with your order, contact POPCUSTOMS before disputing your claim with your credit card company. If you have filed a dispute with your credit card company, we will not be able to issue you a refund as well, and we cannot make any refunds or replacements until the dispute is resolved or cancelled. If there are Order issues and after an investigation POPCUSTOMS offers you a refund, this will be provided in the form of a POPCUSTOMS credit and will appear in your POPCUSTOMS balance.

Once a user withdraws funds from POPCUSTOMS balance it will be sent to the same payment source where it initially came from, whether it is a credit/debit card or a PayPal account. If a top-up is made via PayPal, withdrawal can only be made to the same PayPal account. In case the initial payment was made with a card, the POPCUSTOMS balance withdrawal will take place in the form of a credit/debit card full or partial refund. Subscription bonus provided to subscribers of the POPCUSTOMS Premium Plan will not be able to be withdrawn.

Users are responsible for paying any necessary sales tax on their transactions. Because of the nature of dropshipping businesses, taxes differ depending on who produces or sells the Product, and where it is delivered. POPCUSTOMS recommends that You consult with an outside tax accountant.

European Union (EU) regulations require POPCUSTOMS to collect Value Added Tax (“VAT”) on all orders produced and shipped within the EU. Users with businesses registered with the EU may apply for a VAT Exemption if the Users have a valid VAT number. If you qualify for a VAT exemption, contact POPCUSTOMS Merchant Support with your VAT number and business details and we will apply the exemption in our system.

Copyright Policy

These Product Upload Design Customization Rules apply to the Popcustoms.com website and Agency and any mobile applications operated by the website and its affiliates (“POPCUSTOMS”).

You may not post or sell anything restricted or prohibited by federal, state or local law in any jurisdiction. We have listed the categories and designs of prohibited items as following, but some categories may not be covered here. As a seller, it is your responsibility to ensure that you do not post items and designs that are prohibited by the laws of any jurisdiction.

POPCUSTOMS may update this policy from time to time and it is your responsibility to review this policy periodically to ensure compliance.

In accordance with the User Terms and Conditions, POPCUSTOMS reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine whether an item violates this policy and to require you to immediately delete an item or terminate your account for violation of this policy.

Prohibited Items:

● Copyright infringing items;

● Items that contradict public morals;

● Counterfeit goods or items of any kind that are counterfeit;

● Any goods or items that infringe the intellectual property rights of any company or individual;

● Items that promote hatred, violence, national, racial or religious intolerance;

● Espionage equipment and devices;

● Any other categories prohibited by the laws, regulations, sanctions and trade restrictions of any relevant jurisdiction;

For example,

1、Items with copyright infringing content

It refers to the use of words and graphics that are the same or similar to others’ registered trademarks on the same commodity or similar commodities without the permission of the trademark registrant.

* The identification of “similar goods” shall be based on the goods approved for use in the trademark registration certificate.

* The identification of “similar trademarks” should usually be considered from two aspects: one is whether the goods or services used by the two trademarks are the same or similar; the other is whether the main parts of the logos of the two trademarks are similar.

Copyright infringing judgment standard

Taking the general attention of ordinary consumers as the subjective standard for judgment, and adopting the method of combining the overall comparison with the comparison of the distinctive parts of the trademark, a comprehensive judgment is made.

In practice, the three elements of sound, shape and meaning of trademarks are mostly considered.

(1) Whether the pronunciation is the same;

(2) Whether the shape is similar, and whether it may lead to the intuitive misunderstanding of ordinary consumers;

(3) Whether the meaning is the same.

* A certain brand is involved in footwear products, and the customer’s picture contains the logo or pattern of the registered trademark.

* A certain brand is involved in footwear products, and the customer’s picture contains a logo or pattern of a registered trademark with a slight color adjustment.

2、Any goods or items that violate the intellectual property rights of any company or individual

This behavior means that the unauthorized user uses the same or similar trademark as the well-known trademark on his own goods that are different from the well-known trademark, and it cause consumers to misidentify or confuse the source of the commodity and its relationship with the producer in other respects, thereby weakening the special appeal and identification of the well-known trademark.

The main forms of dilution of well-known trademarks:

One is to vilify the relevant well-known trademark in a certain way;

The second is to darken the relevant well-known trademarks in a certain way;

The third is to make consumers misunderstand the trademark as the common name of the relevant commodity in an indirect way of misinterpretation.

* A certain brand is only involved in clothing, footwear products, but the customers uses pictures which contains the logo or pattern of the registered trademark to design home products.

* A certain brand is only involved in clothing and footwear products, but the customers uses pictures which contains the logo or pattern of the registered trademark to design home products, though the color of the logo or pattern has been adjusted slightly.

If you have any questions about the Copyright Policy, please feel free to contact us.

Data Handling Policy

POPCSUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC standard operating policy includes controls to manage risk to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of sensitive data in any form and represent a minimum standard for protection of this data. Controls required under applicable laws, regulations, or standards governing Personally Identifiable Information “PII” also apply. Each individual who creates, uses, processes, stores, transfers, administers, and/or destroys sensitive Data within POPCSUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC is responsible and accountable for complying with these standards.

Data Creation

Data Records within POPCUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC are primarily created via secure data acquisition from an online Marketplace (Amazon, eBay, Walmart, etc) or website. These data records are occasionally created or edited by the Seller who owns & operates the online store on said marketplace or website. Virtually all records include PII and are used to fulfill product orders for online Buyers.

It is essential that all records are created and maintained appropriately throughout their entire life cycle. Personally Identifiable Information (PII) contained in POPCSUSTOMS’s data records constitutes an area of critical concern because of the severe risk to POPCSUSTOMS, its clients and connectivity partners should records be mishandled or information inappropriately accessed or disclosed. As a consequence, records containing sensitive information & PII should exist only in areas where there is a legitimate and justifiable business need.

Access Management

POPCUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC uses a unique ID assigned to each individual with computer access to Sensitive Information. Under no circumstances do we create or use generic, shared, or default login credentials or user accounts. We have implemented baselining mechanisms to ensure that at all times only the required user accounts have access Sensitive Information. We review the list of people and services with access to Sensitive Information on a monthly basis and remove accounts that no longer require access. We restrict employees from accessing or storing Sensitive data on personal devices. We maintain and enforce “account lockout” by detecting anomalous usage patterns and log-in attempts and disabling accounts with access to Sensitive Information as needed.

Data Governance

POPCSUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC keeps inventory of all software and physical assets with access to PII. This inventory is updated every 60 days. We keep records of all data processing activities, including but not limited to, specific data fields as well as how they are collected, processed, stored, used, shared, and disposed of as they apply to PII. This record is maintained for the purpose of establishing accountability and compliance with regulations. We follow our posted Privacy Policy as it applies to customer consent and data rights per all applicable data privacy regulations.

Network Protection

All POPCSUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC servers and systems employ VPC subnet/Security Groups as well as network firewall network protection controls for the purpose of denying access to unauthorized IP addresses. Public access is restricted to approved users only.

Encryption and Storage

All PII is encrypted at rest using AES-256 industry standards. All cryptographic materials (encryption/decryption keys) and cryptographic capabilities used for encryption of PII at rest are only accessible to POPCUSTOMS  & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC system processes and services. We do not store PII in removable media (USB, Flash Drives, Etc.) or unsecured public cloud applications (Google Drive, Drop Box, Etc). No documents containing PII are ever printed on paper.

Encryption in Transit

POPCUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC encrypts all Sensitive Information in transit, when the data traverses a network, or is otherwise sent between hosts using HTTP over TLS (HTTPS). We enforce this security control on all applicable external endpoints used by customers as well as internal communication channels and during operational tooling. We don’t use communication channels which do not provide encryption in transit even if unused. In addition, POPCUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC uses message-level encryption where channel encryption terminates in untrusted multi-tenant hardware.

Data Retention and Recovery

We retain PII only for the purpose of fulfilling product orders on behalf of our clients (online Sellers). This retention period is for no more than 60 days (“Hold Period”) from shipment and online confirmation of delivery to the Buyer (our client’s Customer). POPCSUSTOMS is not required by law to retain archival copies of PII, therefore beyond the 60-day Hold Period, we do not maintain backup media of any kind for PII. In the event that PII is lost, erased or unavailable for processing due to system crash or ransomware during the 60-day Hold Period, POPCSUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC maintains a backup copy of all PII. This copy is encrypted and meets all security requirements noted in this policy. All security backups are purged with the original at the end of the 60-day Hold Period.

Least Privilege Principle

POPCSUSTOMS & PILLAR SUPPLY LLC employs fine-grained access control mechanisms when granting rights to any party using the Application, as well as the Application’s operators, following the principle of least privilege. Application sections or features that vend PII are protected under a unique access role, and access is only granted on a “need-to-know” basis.

Affiliate Program Policy

The following terms and conditions (the “Agreement”) set out the legally binding terms of your participation in the POPCUSTOMS affiliate program (the “Affiliate Program”). The Program is owned and operated by POPCUSTOMS, Inc. (“POPCUSTOMS”). The Program is offered subject to your (the “User” or “you”) acceptance without modification of any of the terms and conditions contained herein and all other operating rules, policies and procedures that may be published occasionally on the POPCUSTOMS.com website (the “Site”) by POPCUSTOMS. If you do not agree with this Agreement, do not use the Program.

You indicate your acceptance of this Agreement and all of the terms and conditions contained or referenced in this Agreement by completing the application process.

1.  Commissions

For each referred customer who visits the Site through your unique URL and signs up as a customer, you will only receive commission if POPCUSTOMS products are sold through POPCUSTOMS-approved E-commerce platforms and integrations. You will not receive commission for sample orders. Additionally, taxes and shipping are excluded from the calculations, but discounts are included.

The affiliate period of each customer lasts 12 months after your referred customer’s first order. Referring a prospective customer who previously was or currently is a POPCUSTOMS customer does not qualify for commission. You can track affiliate commissions by logging into your Affiliate Dashboard on the Site. Affiliate commission is credited once the customer’s order is fully shipped, meaning that if part of the order has been shipped, commission will not be credited until the final part of the order gets shipped.

To avoid confusion, all tax-related reporting to relevant tax authorities is entirely your responsibility. We will withhold taxes from payments that are due (including international payments) if you do not provide POPCUSTOMS with relevant documentation (such as the W8-BEN form or other).

2. Payment

You will receive commission after the order has been fully shipped, meaning that if part of the order has been shipped, commission will not be credited until the final part of the order gets shipped. Commission is calculated after any refunds if any refund is given to orders. In the event that the customer’s order is canceled, returned or refunded for any reason, we will deduct the relevant amount from your accrued earnings. If a refund is made after we have paid commission to you, we will deduct the respective amount from your account (any future payments).

The minimum withdrawal amount is $25 USD. If for any reason this Agreement is terminated prior to your first commission being due and the account balance does not exceed $25 USD, then no referral commission will be due. If commission is not withdrawn from the balance within 1 (one) year, then this past due commission is voided and removed from the commission balance. All payments will be made via PayPal. You must have a PayPal account for this purpose. Payments are made via PayPal in USD within 1-3 business days after your request is received.

3. Advertising

You must not use any misleading or deceptive claims in advertising copy. You are solely responsible for following all federal, state and local laws, regulations and rules regarding advertising claims, including but not limited to the Federal Trade Commission’s Disclosure Guidelines. You must adhere to all the editorial guidelines and search advertising terms and conditions set forth by each search engine (Google, Yahoo, Bing and other), including any updates to those terms in the future. Where search engine guidelines and this Agreement conflict, you must follow this Agreement.

When creating ads, videos, or other online content that publishes your affiliate URL on websites, POPCUSTOMS’s brand image needs to be kept in mind. Sites where you advertise cannot be associated with content that’s vulgar, racist, sexual, or otherwise deemed offensive by POPCUSTOMS. You must remove all ads and videos from websites deemed offensive within 24 hours of being notified by POPCUSTOMS. The POPCUSTOMS logo cannot be altered or changed. You are prohibited from creating groups or specific web pages in social communities to publicize POPCUSTOMS offers.

Users can engage in search engine optimization and pay per click activities. If you are sending paid traffic (PPC, PPV, Media Buys) to POPCUSTOMS, it is required that you send the traffic through a landing page or web property first. We do not allow direct linking. We restrict Users from using keywords that include our brand name: POPCUSTOMS, The POPCUSTOMS, POPCUSTOMS.com, or any variation or combination therein. You must also not knowingly serve ads that appear in a higher position than POPCUSTOMS managed ads. You shall not promote POPCUSTOMS on coupon sites.
