Bravado Commission Points Program Terms

Last Updated: May 11, 2023

The Bravado Commission Points Program (“Program”) is one way in which Bravado encourages and rewards users for engaging in a variety of activities on the Bravado platform. Please read these Program Terms (“Terms”) carefully.  By participating in the Program, you agree to be bound by the Terms. If you do not agree to the Terms, you cannot participate in the Program. These Terms are subject to change at any time.

General

Bravado’s Commission Points (“Points”) are not monetary ‘commission’ derived from sales. Bravado provides members with opportunities to acquire Points by engaging in a wide variety of activities in the War Room. Points may be redeemed for Bravado swag, experiences, and more in the Commission Store.

These Terms apply to your participation in the Program only and do not alter in any way the Bravado Terms and Conditions. Bravado reserves the right, at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion to change, modify and/or eliminate the Program and/or these Terms or any policy, FAQ, or guideline pertaining to the Program without notice to you. Any changes or modifications will be effective immediately upon posting the revisions to the website and/or the mobile app and you waive any right you may have to receive specific notice of such changes or modifications.  Your participation in the Program confirms your acceptance of these Terms and any such changes or modifications; therefore, you should review these Terms and applicable policies frequently to understand the terms and conditions that apply to the Program.  If you do not agree to the Terms, you agree to stop participating in the Program.  Bravado reserves the right to disqualify or deduct Points, and terminate your participation in the Program and/or your Bravado account if Bravado determines in its sole discretion that you have violated these Terms, or the Bravado Network Terms of Service, you have more than one (1) account, or that the use of your account or participation in the Program is unauthorized, deceptive, fraudulent or otherwise unlawful.  

By participating in this Program, you agree to: (i) the use by Bravado of your name, nickname, city, and state of residence, likeness, avatar, Point totals, Point redemptions, Bravado activities, and other Bravado profile information for advertising, promotional and other purposes in any and all media now or hereafter known throughout the world in perpetuity without additional compensation, notification or permission, unless prohibited by law; and (b) release, discharge and hold harmless Bravado, and its respective parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, retailers, distributors, suppliers, advertising and promotion agencies, and any other individuals engaged in any way in the development, production, publication, distribution or execution of this Program, and the respective directors, officers, and employees of the foregoing from any liability, claims, losses, and damages arising out of or relating to your participation in this Program.  By participating in this Program, you expressly understand and agree that Bravado shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, arising out of or related in any way to your participation in this Program and/or use of Points.

There are no fees associated with the Program. Points are promotional, have no cash value, and cannot be redeemed for cash outside of this Program. Points are personal to you and your account and may not be sold, traded, transferred, combined or assigned.

Commission Abuse and Spam

Users cannot use the Services in any manner that we reasonably believe to be an abuse of or fraud on the Bravado War Room or Commission Store.’ If we find fraudulent activity, the associated user account may be subject to (but not limited to) the methods of enforcement detailed in the ‘Enforcement’ section below.

Bravado defines spam as repeated and/or unwanted comments and thread posts, as well as illegitimate deal stories posted on the Win Wire. These posts may be automated or manual. Producing spam and/or commercial content with the intent of driving traffic to third-party sites or boosting the search engine rankings of third-party sites, or engaging in other unlawful acts (such as phishing or spoofing) are violations of the Bravado War Room’s Terms of Service and the Bravado Commission Points Program Terms, and is punishable by account suspension, termination, or content removal, among other items specified below. 

Some Examples of Spamming are:
  • Posting multiple useless comments and/or thread posts to gain Commission points.

  • Creating multiple user accounts.

  • Posting fraudulent deal stories on the Win Wire.

  • Posting content to promote a company, product, or one's personal brand.

  • Copying and pasting other users' content on posts.

This is not a definitive list. Other violations of Bravado’s policy against spam will be equally enforced.

The Commission Store is a store on the Bravado site that allows users to redeem Commission Points for gifts. Commission redemption rates are subject to change. The Commission Store is a way for Bravado to thank our users for their contributions to the platform. Don’t abuse it. Using fraudulently acquired Commission (e.g. Commission acquired from spamming or other methods that violate our terms) will not be tolerated, and can be punished by law or any other enforcement method detailed below.

Enforcement

Enforcement of Bravado Terms of Service are subject to change. Some examples of how Bravado may choose to enforce these Terms are listed (but not limited to) the following:

  • Asking you to cease the behavior in question

  • Temporarily or permanently suspending your Bravado user account(s)

  • Temporarily or permanently banning your access to the Commission Store

  • Taking away your Commission points (no limit on the amount that may be removed)

  • Hiding your content or posts from the War Room feed

  • Removing you from the list of Leaderboard Winners and withholding the prize.

Bravado reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to provide additional opportunities to receive or lose Points as identified in these Terms, on the website, in the mobile app, or within a Bravado email. Bravado may adjust the number of Points earned per action or remove activities at any time. Points awarded may be removed at any time in Bravado’s sole discretion if it determines the Points were awarded in error.

If you have any questions, please contact support@bravado.co.

Redeeming Points

Points may be redeemed in the Commission Store. The items and experiences in the Commission Store are subject to change at any time and quantities are limited. Sponsor has made no warranty or guarantee in whole or in part, express or implied, in fact, or in law, in relation to the use of any Commission Store item including, but not limited to, its quality, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or suitability for use. By obtaining any Commission Store item, you agree to release and hold harmless the Sponsor, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, suppliers, distributors, and each such company’s officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claim or cause of action, including, but not limited to, personal injury, death, or damage to or loss of property, arising out of receipt, use or misuse of any Commission Store item.   

Redeeming Points does not impact your Lifetime Commission or any then-current Leaderboard Contest. Your current Point totals should always be accessible in your account profile.

Each week, we conduct a Leaderboard contest in the War Room to reward top users. Separate rules apply to the Contest. Click here for details.
