Sub-Affiliates
Any person who was introduced to us by you and joins the mr.play Partners Affiliate Programme as an affiliate thereof, by submitting to us the standard application form through the Sub-Affiliate link on the mr.play Partners Affiliate Programme site, will be considered to be your Sub-Affiliate and tracked as such. Any Sub-Affiliate will be treated as a regular affiliate in the mr.play Partners Affiliate Programme and will be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and you will be liable to us, jointly and severally with any Sub-Affiliate, for the performance of such Sub-Affiliate’s obligations under the Agreement.
To reward you for your Sub-Affiliates and to incentivize you to obtain additional Sub-Affiliates, in addition to paying the Sub-Affiliate (as an affiliate of ours) the commissions set forth in this Agreement, We will also pay you an additional commission in respect of the payments made to the Sub-Affiliate:

Mobile Measurement Partner Installations and Integrity of Traffic
1. Definition of Fake, Fraud, or Spam Installs: For the purposes of this Agreement, “Fake, Fraud, or Spam Installs” refer to any installation of an application that is not a genuine, bona fide action by an end user. This includes, but is not limited to:
a. Installs that are automated, duplicated, simulated, or otherwise artificially generated;
b. Installs that are incentivized in a manner not disclosed and approved by Marketplay LTD;
c. “Spam Installs,” which are defined as installs with more than a 70 to 1 Install to signup ratio, and more than a 12 to 1 signup to first deposit ratio.
2. Detection and Verification: Marketplay LTD utilizes tracking and analytics tools provided by a Mobile Measurement Partner (MMP), as well as its own affiliate program statistical data, among other measures, to monitor and verify the authenticity of app installations, signups, and first deposits. Affiliates acknowledge and agree that Marketplay LTD has the sole discretion to determine, based on reasonable grounds, whether an install, signup, or first deposit is deemed a Fake, Fraud, or Spam Install. The number of installs, signups, and first deposits will be determined mainly by the affiliate program statistical data as the determining factor and not just by the MMP statistical data.
3. Deduction for Fake, Fraud, or Spam Installs: In the event that Marketplay LTD determines that an Affiliate has generated or benefited from Fake, Fraud, or Spam Installs, Marketplay LTD reserves the right to:
a. Deduct from the Affiliate’s current or future balance an amount equivalent to the compensation received or receivable for such Fake, Fraud, or Spam Installs;
b. Terminate the Affiliate’s participation in the affiliate program;
c. Take any other remedial actions as deemed appropriate by Marketplay LTD, including legal action.
4. Affiliate’s Right to Challenge: If an Affiliate disagrees with Marketplay LTD’s determination of a Fake, Fraud, or Spam Install, the Affiliate has the right to challenge such determination by providing clear and convincing evidence that the install in question was genuine. The final decision regarding the authenticity of the install remains at the sole discretion of Marketplay LTD.
5. Cooperation: Affiliates agree to cooperate fully with Marketplay LTD in any investigation into Fake, Fraud, or Spam Installs. This includes providing any requested information, records, or other data in a timely manner.
6. Determining Statistical Data for Payouts: The determining statistical data for the purposes of payouts, including but not limited to the number of installs, signups, and first deposits, is the data recorded and stored in the affiliate program software operated by Marketplay LTD, and not the data recorded by the Mobile Measurement Partner (MMP).

For the DE market
We strictly refrain from offering any variable or turnover-dependent compensation, including deposits or stakes, for advertising games of chance on the internet, especially through affiliate links.
Additionally, we maintain a policy that prohibits entering contracts with individuals who film and promote their own or others’ games via radio, social networks, or live streams (known as streamers). This measure ensures that our gambling products, not just the umbrella brand, are advertised. We are committed to avoiding any promotion that might unconsciously influence viewers emotionally, crossing the boundary of permissible advertising.
Miscellaneous
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
The construction, validity and performance of this Agreement will be governed by English law. The competent court in London will have exclusive jurisdiction in any matter arising from or related to this Agreement. This, however, shall not prevent us from bringing any action in the court of any other jurisdiction for injunctive or similar relief. The English language version of this Agreement will prevail over any other language version issued by us.
Severability
Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law but, if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
