Affiliates Terms Of Service
The following document outlines the terms by which the MyProjectHost Affiliate Program shall operate. The MyProjectHost Affiliate Program may be referred to as “The Program”, “The Affiliates Program”, or similar. Please note MyProjectHost operates under the umbrella of Techuapps Technologies.
I. Parties to this Agreement
This agreement is entered into by MyProjectHost and each of its Affiliate(s). “You”, “Your” refers to each and every affiliate or sub-affiliate of the MyProjectHost affiliate program. Participation in the program constitutes full and complete acceptance of the TOS set forth herein, which are in compliance with the laws of India.
2. MyProjectHost Responsibilities
A. Affiliate Account
Upon joining the program, MyProjectHost will create an affiliate account which affiliates may access through a specified link. The account is established to enable MyProjectHost’s affiliates to manage their work effectively as our affiliate.
B. Affiliate ID & General Affiliate Link
Upon creation of your affiliate account, MyProjectHost will provide a unique Affiliate ID. This ID distinguishes you from other affiliates and is integral in generating your General Affiliate Link. An affiliate link is a URL used in marketing that facilitates the tracking of clicks by MyProjectHost and its Affiliates. MyProjectHost provides a General Affiliate Link by default, enabling immediate sharing, and affiliates are also permitted to create custom affiliate links within their affiliate account.
Guidelines for acceptable use of your affiliate link and/or general affiliate link are detailed later in this document.
C. Tracking
MyProjectHost agrees to track customers referred to MyProjectHost via the link provided to you for this purpose. MyProjectHost employs cookies to maintain tracking information for up to 90 days. MyProjectHost will pay you a commission for each such referral made in compliance with this agreement, according to the commission schedule and the terms set forth in this affiliate agreement.
3. Affiliate Responsibilities

D. Affiliate Code of Conduct
As a participant in the MyProjectHost Affiliate Program, you are prohibited from participating in any scheme or strategy that artificially inflates your earnings or bonuses. This includes, but is not limited to, referring or promoting the cheapest services solely for the purpose of increasing the number of orders. MyProjectHost, Inc, the owner of the affiliate program, reserves the right to decline any commission earned through such fraudulent activity. As a MyProjectHost affiliate, it is your responsibility to refer services in a natural and authentic manner.

- Disparage MyProjectHost and its representatives, the Services, or the Program;
- Use any illegal or spam method of advertising;
- Compete or interfere with MyProjectHost’s direct advertising efforts. From time to time, MyProjectHost may opt to engage in direct online advertising. The Affiliate shall not place advertisements targeting MyProjectHost’s trademarks and service marks or place advertisements that in any way advertise or display MyProjectHost’s trademarks or service marks. This means, among other things, that the Affiliate shall not bid on any keywords or phrases containing MyProjectHost trademarks, service marks, registered trademarks, or registered URLs, or on any variations, abbreviations, or misspellings of the same.
- Refer traffic to MyProjectHost through any pay-to-read, pay to click, banner exchanges, click exchanges, PPC advertising, pop-up/under, press releases, or similar methods. Referrals must be made from original content hosted at the Affiliate Websites, from original video content hosted at third-party video hosting platforms, or from direct professional referrals made by the Affiliate to their professional network;
- Using iframes or any other techniques or technology to add the Affiliates tracking cookie to a referral by any means other than an actual click-through;
- Using link cloaking, or masking techniques or technology, with the goal of promoting MyProjectHost on websites and/or networks not explicitly mentioned in your Account;
- Display MyProjectHost.com, “MyProjectHost”, MyProjectHost’s logos or trade names, or any variation, abbreviation, or misspelling thereof in any URL, domain name, social media profile, or any other online or offline presence.
- Engage in incentivized programs or business-opportunity sites;
- Self-refer or refer yourself in any fashion. This includes referral of any operation or website in which the Affiliate has a controlling, proprietary, or equitable interest. Any referral where payment is made utilizing a form of payment controlled by or belonging to the Affiliate shall be considered a violation of these Terms.
Violations may result in the invalidation of referral commissions and/or immediate termination of the affiliate account. MyProjectHost will be the sole arbitrator as to what constitutes a violation.
E. Link
You may use the affiliate URL provided by MyProjectHost via Your Affiliate Account, or in any other form you wish, provided that your use of the URL is not in any way disparaging of MyProjectHost or otherwise not appropriate or acceptable in MyProjectHost’s sole opinion and judgment.

All dealings with customers for web hosting and related services shall be directly and solely between customer and MyProjectHost shall have the right and obligation to determine all pricing and product offerings and shall have the right to make any changes thereto without notice to affiliate. All customers of MyProjectHost, regardless of origin or referral, are the sole property and responsibility of MyProjectHost.
H. Federal Trade Commission Regulations
In addition to the rules set forth in this agreement, Affiliates agree to adhere to rules set forth by the Indian legal system, specifically rules that apply to affiliate marketing.
These rules ultimately boil down to being honest in your marketing while also disclosing that You may collect affiliate payment for purchases made as a result of links on your website. The specific language for these rules follows:
As required by Indian law, connections between advertisers and endorsers must be conspicuously disclosed. Blogs, websites, ratings and review sites, and similar must declare the compensation arrangement with the advertiser. As such, you must declare the financial relationship between you and MyProjectHost in a prominent location on your websites in order to be in compliance with Indian regulations. MyProjectHost retains the right to withhold payout amounts of money and/or cancel your affiliate account should it be determined that you are not in compliance with applicable Indian regulations. MyProjectHost will be the sole arbitrator as to what constitutes non-compliance.
IV. Commissions
A. Commission Rate
Commissions are paid on a one-time basis for each new customer that signs up via your affiliate URL, adhering to the terms and conditions outlined herein. There are no obligations for additional commission payments. Commission amounts vary, depending on the number of referrals within a given calendar month and the maturation of the order. Detailed commission rates based on these criteria can be found within your affiliate account or at https://myprojecthost.com/affiliate-program/.
No Commissions Will Be Credited For The Following Additional Services:
- Domain Name Registrations/Transfers
- Additional services listed in the add-ons section.
Commissions are applicable only for new accounts (excluding current or previous customers of MyProjectHost) and do not apply to any renewals or subsequent sign-ups of a referred customer. Self-referrals to MyProjectHost will not earn commissions. A commission is considered final only when it qualifies as a ‘Qualified Commission’, even if the payment has already been processed.
B. Qualified Commission
A commission is deemed ‘qualified’ when the new account, which is the subject of the commission, remains continuously in good standing for at least 45 days from its inception. MyProjectHost will determine if a commission meets this criterion. If an account related to a paid commission is terminated or canceled for any reason, the commission will be revoked and deducted from your future or existing commission balance.
C. Payment Date
Payments are made only after your commission account balance reaches the minimum threshold of INR 500* (approx. $6.2). MyProjectHost will not issue payment until this threshold is met. Commission payments are processed only upon your request submitted via the MyProjectHost affiliate control panel. If you fail to submit a payout request within one year from the date your Qualified Commission accrues and becomes payable, you forfeit that commission, absolving MyProjectHost of any liability for its payment.
*See section D. Payment (below) for exceptions to the minimum payment threshold.
D. Payment
Payment requests are processed on-demand. Requests for commission payouts must be made through the “Payouts to Me” section of your affiliate portal, accessible at https://affiliates.myprojecthost.com/affiliates/panel.php.
Payment methods include:
- PayPal – requiring your PayPal details linked to your Affiliate Account.
- Account Credit – applicable if you are also a MyProjectHost customer, allowing for credit against your hosting account.
- Wire Transfer/ACH – subject to the following:
- A minimum payment threshold of INR 85,00 (approx. $100 USD).
- All associated fees are borne by the Affiliate.
- Necessary bank details and personal identification information must be provided.
When requesting payment, you must include your Affiliate ID, chosen payment method, and the payment amount. You also agree to bear any fees associated with receiving your affiliate payment.
E. Qualification for Payment
In compliance with Indian tax laws, Affiliates must provide necessary documentation as a prerequisite for commission receipt from MyProjectHost.
Affiliates are responsible for any tax payments or fees incurred from commission earnings. MyProjectHost may withhold or cancel commissions if the required documentation is not provided.
F. Alternative CPA (Cost Per Action)
At the discretion of MyProjectHost, an alternative CPA may be offered in lieu of a standard Commission. This is not a guaranteed option and must be mutually agreed upon in writing by both the affiliate and MyProjectHost.
The alternative CPA is currently set at INR 1,875 (approx. $25 USD) per sale. The value and continuation of this arrangement can be modified by MyProjectHost at any time.
Sales under the alternative CPA are classified as ‘Alternative Sales’ and do not qualify as ‘Qualified Sales’. Such sales are ineligible for Bonus Commissions or any rewards linked to Qualified Commissions or Sales.
