Affiliate Lounge have changed several terms in their updated T&C’s. The changes include the addition of derivative domain name and ppc competition clauses.
TERM ADDED, MARKETING, DERIVATIVE DOMAINS AND COMPETING PPC
Without prejudice to the generality of the above, 3.14.1. the Referral Company shall not register or utilise in any way, whether as the Referral Website or otherwise, any domain name that contains any of the Betsson Brands or their variations or misspellings. In case of doubt or similarity of a domain name to any of the Betsson Brands, the Referral Company must obtain written consent from AL prior to registration or utilisation of the domain name; 3.14.2. the Referral Company shall not utilise and shall not allow any third party to utilise any website having a domain name that contains any of the Betsson Brands or their variations or misspellings in such a way that results in promoting any website other than the Participating Sites, whether by way of linking, redirecting traffic or otherwise; 3.14.3. the Referral Company shall not engage in any marketing by way of pay-per-click, sponsored links, search engines’ keywords, adwords or similar promotion which utilises any of the Betsson Brands.
TERM ADDED, DERIVATIVE DOMAINS, OWNERSHIP
4.8. In case of a breach by the Referral Company of clause 3.14, in addition to other remedies available to AL at law, AL or another Betsson Group Company shall have the right to become registered as the registrant of all domain names registered or utilized by the Referral Company and the Referral Company shall assist AL and/or shall assign to AL or to another Betsson Group Company, as may be specified by AL, all the said domain names irrespective of whether they are top level generic domain name, top country level domains or otherwise.
TERM ADDED, DEFINITION, BRANDS
2.1.14. “Betsson Brands” shall mean brands, trademarks and trade names owned by AL or any other Betsson Group Company, including the brands ‘Betsson’, ‘CasinoEuro’, ‘CherryCasino’, Affiliate Lounge’ and related trademarks.
Summary:This update is to clarify that any derivative domains used can become the property of Affiliate Lounge if you continue to use them to compete with their website. Additionally, any PPC terms that are misspellings or other can not be used. This is becoming a common clause and is not predatory.
