Appre Account Holder Agreement

1. Introduction

Welcome to Appre, this document serves as a legal agreement delineating the rights and responsibilities of both you and Appre ("we," "us," or "Appre") concerning our website and the services provided through it (referred to as "Appre Services"). It's essential to thoroughly review and comprehend this agreement before registering for Appre Services. By accessing or utilizing our platform and its services, you signify your agreement to abide by these terms. Kindly take the time to familiarize yourself with this agreement before utilizing the Appre services. Please be advised that these terms may undergo periodic updates. Upon registration or engagement in transactions through our platform, you establish an "Account" and assume the role of an "Account Holder."

2. Our Services

Appre Services provide Account Holders with the opportunity to earn cashback on purchases made from various retailers.

These services include:

• The Appre cashback service for transactions made on websites.
• The Appre Payout service for exchanging cashback for gift cards.

Unless stated otherwise, this Agreement encompasses all Appre Services. Specific terms for individual services are detailed below.

Here's how it operates: Appre receives a referral fee ("Referral Fee") for qualifying purchases made by Account Holders from retailers ("Qualifying Transaction"). Upon confirmation of a Qualifying Transaction, the retailer pays the Referral Fee to Appre. Appre, in turn, disburses cashback payments to Account Holders in accordance with this Agreement.

Account Holders with Qualifying Transactions will notice a positive account balance ("Balance") reflecting the advertised cashback rate on the Appre website. This Balance does not constitute held funds by Appre. Upon request for payment ("Balance Withdrawal Request"), the Balance converts into cashback ("Cashback").

Cashback is disbursed once all necessary checks are satisfactorily completed as per our internal policies. Retailers refer to sellers or service providers who engage in Qualifying Transactions and pay Referral Fees to Appre.

Each Appre Service operates differently:

The Appre cashback service for website transactions: Account Holders make Qualifying Transactions via the Appre website with participating retailers.

The Appre Payout service for gift card exchange: Account Holders can receive Cashback in the form of an e-gift card with an additional payout from select retailers.

Every retailer offer is subject to the respective terms and conditions set by the retailer.

For additional information on Appre Services, refer to our help pages and service documentation available on the Appre website for assistance with any queries or concerns.

3. Obtaining an Account

To obtain an Account, individuals must meet the age requirement of at least 16 years old and are limited to one Account per person. UK residency is mandatory for Appre Account registration.

When utilizing or registering for Appre Services, users must furnish precise and current personal details, including accurate name, address, and any additionally requested information. Providing details of a Cashback Withdrawal Method (e.g., bank account) necessitates ensuring entitlement, confirming preference for Cashback receipt via the method, and maintaining accuracy of the method's details, updated through the Account.

Our Privacy Policy outlines how we handle personal information provided via Appre Accounts, including data derived from Cashback Withdrawal Method activity. Be aware that Cashback Withdrawal Methods may impose payment limits.

Crucially, maintaining an up-to-date email address associated with the Account is essential as important communications will be sent there. Any email address changes must be promptly updated within the Account settings.

4. Cashback Information

In the event of a validated Qualifying Transaction, where we've received the Referral Fee and the Account Holder has submitted a Balance Withdrawal Request as specified in Clause 2 of this Agreement, we initiate the transfer of corresponding Cashback to the Account Holder via their chosen Cashback Withdrawal Method. This transfer is contingent upon the satisfactory completion of all pertinent payment-related checks in accordance with our internal guidelines.

It's essential to recognize that not all interactions with retailers may qualify as Qualifying Transactions, thereby precluding the accrual of Cashback. Various circumstances may result in sums failing to reflect in an Account Holder's Balance and consequently being forfeited, including:

• Receipt of a Referral Fee not tied to a Qualifying Transaction or associated with an Account (e.g., when the Account Holder is not logged into the Appre Service during the transaction).
• Post-transaction cancellation (e.g., product return or exercise of transaction cancellation rights).
• Association of a Balance with an Account or Account Holder that:

Is suspended pursuant to Clause 8 of this Agreement.

Is implicated in fraudulent activity or breaches of the Agreement.

Is utilized for proxy purchases or the benefit of another individual.

Remains inactive for over six months, indicating no logins by the Account Holder.

5. Intellectual Property

Upon submission of any content to the Appre Service, the Account Holder expressly grants:

• To us, a non-exclusive permit (with sub-licensing rights) to employ, replicate, and distribute said content across the Appre Service and any allied interactive platforms facilitated by us or our sub-licensees.
• To other Account Holders (via us, under the previously mentioned license), the non-exclusive, personal, non-transferable privilege to access the relevant content.
