For such variations that we create ourselves, we reserve the right to set revenue share rates at our sole discretion. Contributors earning revenue share on submissions may continue to earn for as long as their Contributor membership remains active.  Memberships may be revoked for illegal behavior or any inappropriate conduct.  Contributors ARE allowed to promote their own products through appropriate advertising channels.  Emailing, Cold Calls, Excessive posts to 3rd party websites or forums, or any other Spamming technique is strictly prohibited.  We value our public image.  If Contributors promote in any method deemed inappropriate or in violation of any laws or any other business's terms and conditions, we reserve the right to revoke that Contributor's membership.
