No other promotional activities are allowed by Affiliates within these states. Activities prohibited include but are not limited to distribution of any printed materials referring people to furb.com, engaging in any verbal communication referring people to furb.com. Using any website that is not the affiliate’s own web site to place links to furb.com. This includes social media sites and other content hosting sites that are not owned by the affiliate. Residents of these states must submit an affidavit of compliance once a year by December 31st in order to stay within the program.

Once accepted into the Program, you can use any of the links provided to you through the network. Altering links is prohibited. You may only link to us through domains that are listed in your affiliate profile. You may not engage in cookie stuffing or include pop-ups, false or misleading links.
You may not attempt to prevent the referring page information from being seen by the affiliate networks. If we discover affiliate links to our website that hide their original source, the affiliate may be removed from the program and we may reverse commissions if we cannot see the referring link that lead to the sale.

Keyword Restrictions:
You may not place any pay-per-click bids on any terms that include the use of the words Furb, Furb.com, Furb coupons, Furb.com coupons, Furb promo code or any other combination of words that contain the word Furb. To prevent a keyword containing the term “Furb” from triggering an ad we suggest you add “Furb” as a broad negative keyword match.

Any transactions using coupon codes that we have not authorized by use for affiliates or published on our site will receive a commission of zero. In addition, any affiliate that publishes a prohibited coupon code will be notified of the violation and will forfeit all future commissions until a Furb team member has determined that the site is no longer publishing the prohibited coupon code.
