Welcome to the Jacobs-MC Affiliate Program (“Program”)! By participating in the Program, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“ToS”). Please read them carefully. If you do not agree with these terms, you should not participate in the Program.
1. Overview of the Affiliate Program
Jacobs-MC, operated by Jacobs Integrity Technologies, LTD (“we,” “us,” or “Jacobs-MC”), manufactures professional water leak detection equipment. The Affiliate Program allows Affiliates (or “you”) to create and submit videos showcasing our products in action. We may use these videos in our advertising campaigns. If a customer purchases a product after clicking an ad featuring your video, you will earn a commission on that sale, subject to the terms below.
In addition to submitting videos for our ad campaigns, you can promote Jacobs-MC products on your own through social media, websites, or other channels using your unique affiliate link or code. If someone clicks your link or uses your code and makes a purchase on our website (www.jacobs-mc.co), you’ll earn a commission on that sale. All promotions must follow our guidelines, including disclosing that you earn a commission, to ensure transparency and compliance with applicable laws.
2. Eligibility
• You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into contracts.
• You must be a customer of Jacobs-MC, meaning you have purchased a Sniffer430, Lixener30, or other Jacobs-MC product.
• You must comply with all applicable laws, including US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines for affiliate marketing, which require disclosing your affiliate relationship in any promotional content.
• Jacobs-MC reserves the right to approve or reject any affiliate application at our sole discretion.
3. How the Program Works

• Ad Use: We may select your video for use in our advertising campaigns (e.g., social media, website, or other platforms).

Submitted videos will be tested in our advertising campaigns. However, this does not guarantee the consistent use of your video. Jacob’s-MC may decide to stop promoting your video in advertisements at any time. (This decision may be made based on how your video performs in our campaigns compared to other videos.) We reserve the right to use your submitted video without linking to your Affiliate Link.
