We will not be responsible (and you will be solely responsible and will fully indemnify us) if you use another person's copyrighted material or other intellectual property in violation of the law or any third party rights.
3. Honeybook Rights and Obligations
3.1. We have the right to monitor your site at any time to determine if you are following the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

If you do not make the changes to your site that we feel are necessary, we reserve the right to terminate your participation in the HoneyBook Affiliate Program.
3.2. Honeybook reserves the right to terminate this Agreement and your participation in the HoneyBook Affiliate Program immediately and without notice to you should you commit fraud, misrepresentation or other abuse in your participation in the HoneyBook Affiliate Program.

8.1. In connection with your activities hereunder, you shall not engage in any unlawful, unfair, deceptive or abusive marketing practices, as determined by us in our sole discretion. Such practices, include, without limitation, spamming or other unsolicited commercial email (UCE), posting or marketing to non-commercial groups, boards, forums or social networks, or advertising in any way that conceals or misrepresents your identity, your domain name, or your return email address. At all times, you must clearly represent yourself and your web sites as independent from HoneyBook. If it comes to our attention that you are engaging in any such practices, we will consider that cause for immediate termination of this Agreement and your participation in the HoneyBook Affiliate Program.
8.2. You shall not bid in your advertising campaigns on keywords such as HoneyBook, HoneyBook.com, www.HoneyBook, www.HoneyBook.com, and/or any misspellings or similar alterations of these terms (separately or in combination with other keywords). Further, you shall not transmit any so-called “interstitials,” “Parasitic Marketing,” “Shopping Assistance Applications,” “Toolbar Installations and/or Add-ons,” “Shopping Wallets” or “deceptive pop-ups and/or pop-unders” or any similar tools, programs or applications from the time the user clicks on a qualifying link until such time as the user has fully exited Honeybook’s site. The foregoing restricted activities shall include, without limitation, any application, tool or code that (a) causes the overwriting tracking cookies through any means other than a customer initiated click on a qualifying link on a web page or email; (b) intercepts searches to redirect traffic through installed software or otherwise (e.g., causing pop-ups, commission tracking cookies to be put in place, or other commission tracking cookies to be overwritten or the like); (c) sets commission tracking cookies through loading of the HoneyBook site in iframes, hidden links or automatic pop ups; (d) targets text on web sites, other than those websites 100% owned by you for the purpose of contextual marketing; (e) removes, replaces or blocks the visibility of Affiliate banners, other than those that are on web sites 100% owned by you. Any pending balances owed to you will not be paid if your account is terminated due to any of the practices described in this Section 8.
8.3. You are expressly prohibited from submitting, posting, or otherwise distributing your unique referral codes, links, or any other referral-related materials on any couponing or discount-focused platforms, sites, or forums, including but not limited to "deal aggregator" websites, cashback or reward sites, and promotional code directories (e.g., RetailMeNot, Groupon, and Honey). Furthermore, you shall not attempt to exploit or attract users seeking discounts, rebates, or other financial incentives through such channels. Any violation of this provision, as determined by us in our sole discretion, shall be grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement and your participation in the HoneyBook Affiliate Program, and any pending balances owed to you will be forfeited.
