You acknowledge that prior to signing you have received, read and understood the VIMA Income Disclaimer Statement, that you have read and understood the VIMA Policies and Procedures, the VIMA Privacy Policy, the Compensation Plan, if applicable, the Business Entity Registration Form, and all terms set forth in this Associate Agreement. All documents are collectively referred to as simply the “Agreement.” VIMA reserves the right to reject any application for any reason within thirty (30) days of receipt.
  2. Expiration, Renewal, and Termination. This Agreement will remain in effect until you voluntarily cancel the Agreement, your account becomes inactive and/or you fail to renew, or the Company terminates you as an Associate, as outlined more fully in the Policies and Procedures. If you fail to renew your VIMA business, or if it is cancelled or terminated for any reason, you understand that you will permanently lose all rights as an Associate. You shall not be eligible to sell VIMA products and services nor shall you be eligible to receive royalties, bonuses, or other income resulting from the activities of your former downline sales organization. In the event of cancellation, termination or nonrenewal, you waive all rights you have, including but not limited to property rights, to your former downline organization and to any bonuses, commissions or other remuneration derived through the sales and other activities of your former downline organization. VIMA reserves the right to terminate all Associate Agreements upon thirty (30) days’ notice if the Company elects to: (1) cease business operations; (2) dissolve as a business entity; or (3) terminate distribution of its products and/or services via direct selling channels. Associates may cancel this Agreement at any time, and for any reason, upon written notice to VIMA. VIMA may cancel this Agreement or take actions short of termination if the VIMA Associate breaches any of its provisions.
  3. Independent Business Owner Status. You agree this authorization does not make you an employee, agent, or legal representative of VIMA or your Sponsoring Associate. As a self-employed independent business owner, you will be operating your own independent business, buying and selling products available through VIMA on your own account. You have complete freedom in determining the number of hours that you will devote to your business, and you have the sole discretion of scheduling such hours. You will receive IRS Form 1099-MISC reflecting the amount of income paid to you during the calendar year. By agreeing to these terms, you agree to receive the 1099-MISC form via electronically. It will be your sole responsibility to account for such income on your individual income tax returns.
  4. Refunds. VIMA offers a thirty (30) day satisfaction guarantee on all initial fees paid to the company. All subsequent fees are nonrefundable. The digital nature of the service and the immediacy of the benefits make any possibility for a longer refund period commercially impractical.
