2. Under the Program, an existing Comcast Business customer (“Advocate”) may be eligible to receive a one-time reward (a “Reward”) for each referral of a prospective Comcast Business customer (“Referred Customer”) within the Comcast territory, described as Comcast’s serviceable areas (the “Territory”) that subscribes to an Eligible Service (defined below) in accordance with these Terms, up to an annual amount of $10,000 for Rewards, in the aggregate, per Contract Year.

Each Reward, to the extent earned in accordance with these Terms, shall equal the greater of (i) one month’s monthly recurring charge for the Eligible Service that was the subject of the referral for the Referred Customer (such monthly recurring charge shall not include any equipment or installation charges, use fees, surcharges or taxes or any other “pass through” fees associated with the Eligible Services), or (ii) $100. The Reward will be provided as a credit on the Advocate’s Comcast Business account only after the Referred Customer’s Eligible Service (defined below) installation date and corresponding 30-day service period (further described below) has been completed.

Eligible Service within a Comcast Business Line of Service to another Eligible

7. No Reward shall be payable for any restarts of customer accounts less than thirty (30) days from the date that the account was disconnected.

Only one (1) Reward will be issued for a qualified Referred Customer who activate(s) and/or installs multiple Eligible Services at one (1) or more locations as a result of a referral. If multiple referrals are received for the same Referred Customer, whether through the Program or another Comcast Business referral program, only one (1) Reward may be provided for the Referred Customer based on the party that first provided the referral, as determined by Comcast in its sole discretion.
10. Advocate and Advocate’s employees and agents shall not be a party to, nor a business contact on, any customer agreement that Comcast may enter into with a Referred Customer or represent itself as the Referred Customer contact in any referral. In the event that Advocate or any of Advocate’s employees or agents: (i) submits a referral that lists Advocate or any of Advocate’s employees or agents as the contracting party or business contact, (ii) is listed as a business contact on a Comcast customer agreement with a Referred Customer or (iii) executes a Comcast customer agreement with a Referred Customer on behalf of such Referred Customer, Comcast may, in its sole and absolute discretion, (A) reject the referral submitted by such Advocate, thereby forfeiting any Reward and/or (B) remove Advocate from the Program.
11. Advocate agrees to provide written notification of all disputes it may have regarding unpaid Rewards within thirty (30) days of the date such Reward is earned or claimed to be earned and any dispute for which Advocate does not provide such notification shall be deemed waived. Reasonable delay in paying Rewards disputed in good faith, shall not constitute a breach of these Terms.
12. Advocate shall have no right or obligation to bill or collect from any Comcast customer or Referred Customer any fees or charges for the Eligible Services. Advocate understands and agrees that Comcast will set the terms, conditions and prices for the Services and that Advocate shall not imply or represent anything to the contrary to any person or entity, including, but not limited to, any Referred Customer. Advocate shall not make any representations or warranties or use any materials or provide any information regarding the Services that have not been provided by or expressly approved in writing by Comcast.
13. Advocate shall comply with all applicable federal, state, county, and local laws, rules and regulations. Advocate shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Comcast and its parents, affiliates and subsidiaries, and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents and/or assignees against any liability from any third-party claims, actions, causes of actions or demands arising out of (i) the conduct of Advocate’s business, including without limitation, with respect to any disputes between customer(s) or Referred Customers; and (ii) Advocate’s breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or any other terms of these Terms.
14. Confidentiality.
(a) Confidential Information means all business and technical information, including but not limited to technical, marketing, financial, employee, business customers, planning, vendor information, business or product plans, network information of Comcast which is non- public, confidential or proprietary. Confidential Information may be written, oral, expressed in electronic media or otherwise disclosed, and may be tangible or intangible. Advocate will hold in confidence and not disclose to others any Confidential Information of Comcast without the prior written consent of a duly authorized representative of Comcast. Confidential Information disclosed under this Agreement will be used only by Advocate to perform its obligations hereunder. Advocate agrees that during and after the term of this Agreement, neither Advocate receiving Confidential Information hereunder nor any person, firm, corporation or other entity affiliated with, owned in whole or in part by, employed by or otherwise connected with Advocate, shall directly or indirectly, without the express written consent of Comcast, divulge, use, sell, exchange, furnish, give away, or transfer in any way any Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) of Comcast. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
(b) The obligations of confidentiality contained in this Section shall not apply to any information that: (i) was already known to Advocate, other than under any obligation of confidentiality, at the time of disclosure by the other party; (ii) was or becomes generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain other than through any act or omission of Advocate in breach of this Agreement; (iii) was disclosed to Advocate, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, by a third party who had no obligation to the other party not to disclose such information to others; (iv) is independently developed by Advocate; or (v) is required to be disclosed under operation of law or governmental process. In the event Advocate is required to disclose Comcast’s Confidential Information under operation of law or government process, Advocate shall provide Comcast with reasonable advance notice prior to such disclosure.
(c) Advocate will adhere to any retention limits set and communicated by Comcast, unless required to do otherwise by applicable law or legal obligation and in such instances, Advocate will not use or disclose the information for any other purpose.
15. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Advocate hereby acknowledges that personal information (“PI”) relating to Referred Customers of the Services is subject to the subscriber privacy protections set forth in Section 631 of the Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984, as amended (47 U.S.C. Section 551). To the extent that Comcast discloses any such PI to Advocate, it does so in recognition of the services being provided by Advocate hereunder and in furtherance of Comcast’s legitimate business activities related to such services. Advocate hereby agrees that it shall use such information solely for the purposes of this Agreement, will not sell (as defined by the Privacy Laws) to third parties and will restrict disclosure of PII to those employees with a need to know and shall not further disclose such information to any third party. Advocate shall not use PII of any Referred Customer for any other purposes, including without limitation, to market Advocate’s products and services, unless first approved in writing by such Referred Customer. Advocate hereby acknowledges that the breach by Advocate of any of its obligations under this Section cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in any action at law and that a breach of this provision by Advocate will cause Comcast irreparable harm. Advocate agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this provision, Comcast shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. “Privacy Laws” means all applicable laws, rules, regulations, decrees, or other enactments, orders, mandates, or resolutions relating to privacy, data security, and/or data protection, and any implementing, derivative or related legislation, rule, and regulation as amended, extended, repealed and replaced, or re-enacted, as well as any applicable industry self-regulatory programs (including the Digital Advertising Alliance Self-Regulatory Principles) related to the collection, use, disclosure, and security of PI.
16. Advocate shall employ commercially reasonable physical, administrative, and technical security controls appropriately tailored to the nature and scope of its activities and the sensitivity of the underlying data which shall in no instance be less protective than those used by the Advocate to secure and retain the confidentiality of its own information of a like kind and in all instances will conform to any legal requirements and regulatory guidance applicable to the types of data being transferred.
17. Advocate agrees that it shall not conduct any advertising or marketing campaigns, including, but not limited to, telemarketing, e-mail, radio, television or print advertising, in order to generate referrals for the Program and instead the Program is only intended for existing Comcast Business customers to refer businesses that they already know and who have expressed an interest in products or services provided by Comcast Business. Advocates are also prohibited from using the “Comcast” name or any Comcast service or trademark, including without limitation, the “SmartOffice” name or mark. The restrictions in this paragraph apply to all of the Comcast services included in the Program, with particular emphasis on referrals for Comcast Business SmartOffice™ due to the heightened regulatory requirements that apply to this service. Advocates may not work with Comcast sales representatives who are family members.
18. Rewards may not be combined with other referral awards or similar programs.
19. The Program is void in all areas where prohibited.
20. Comcast reserves the right to change the Reward(s) and eligibility criteria under the Program and to alter, modify, suspend or terminate the Program or any component thereof at any time upon thirty (30) days prior notice, which notice may be made by the Advocate’s Comcast sales representative, any Program promotional terms and conditions, or posting revisions on the landing page of the Portal, or if terminated, posting a notice on the Portal that the Program is terminated, or through such other notification methods as determined by Comcast in its sole discretion.
21. Comcast’s tracking of installations and payments by the Referred Customer shall determine when a Reward is owed.
22. Any referrals for local, municipal, state or federal government entities or referrals for entities who currently receive or are eligible to receive services under the E-Rate program are not included and/or eligible for any Reward under the Program.
23. Comcast reserves the right to monitor all Program activity and to withhold payment of any Reward(s) if Comcast believes, in its sole discretion, that any Reward(s) were paid to Advocate where the referral did not comply with these Terms.
24. Comcast reserves the right to interpret these Terms in its sole and absolute discretion.
