Partner Independent Contractor Agreement

    Version 1.9

    Effective Date: 28 August 2026

    1. Parties

    This Partner Independent Contractor Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into between:

    ZoneX AG, CHE-192.381.383, a Swiss stock corporation (AG) with registered office in Zug, Switzerland, having its registered address at c/o STAX AG, Bahnhofstrasse 21, 6300 Zug, Switzerland ("Company"),

    and

    any individual or entity registering as a partner on the Company's platform ("Partner").

    By accepting this Agreement electronically and registering as a Partner, the Partner agrees to be bound by its terms.

    Definitions

    For purposes of this Agreement:

    "Partner Program" means the Company's affiliate and referral program as made available through the ZoneX platform from time to time, including without limitation the commission structure, tracking systems, referral mechanisms, dashboard functionality, Partner Guidelines, and any related tools, policies, or features provided by the Company.

    References to the Company's "reasonable discretion" shall mean discretion exercised in good faith and on a commercially reasonable basis.

    2. Relationship

    The Partner acts as an independent contractor.

    Nothing in this Agreement creates:

    • employment
    • partnership
    • joint venture
    • fiduciary relationship

    The Partner has no authority to bind the Company.

    The term "Partner" is used solely for commercial or marketing purposes and does not imply any legal partnership.

    3. Scope of Activities

    The Partner will:

    • promote ZoneX using their audience and channels
    • use their unique referral link and/or code
    • create and publish content (videos, posts, reviews, etc.)

    The Partner has discretion over content style, subject to this Agreement.

    The Company makes no representation or guarantee regarding the level of income or commissions that may be earned by the Partner.

    This Agreement is non-exclusive and the Partner is free to promote other products or services, subject to compliance with this Agreement.

    3A. Promotional Challenges and Funded Accounts

    The Company may, in its sole discretion, provide the Partner with one or more complimentary ZoneX Challenge accounts, evaluation accounts, funded accounts, or other promotional benefits (collectively, "Promotional Benefits") for marketing, evaluation, demonstration, or partnership development purposes.

    Promotional Benefits are discretionary and conditional benefits and do not constitute Partner Commissions or any vested contractual entitlement.

    The Company may suspend, revoke, cancel, or terminate any Promotional Benefit, with or without notice, if:

    • (a) the Partner ceases communication with the Company for a period the Company reasonably considers excessive;
    • (b) the Partner fails to commence or continue promotional activities within a reasonable period requested by the Company;
    • (c) the Company reasonably determines that the intended commercial relationship is no longer progressing;
    • (d) the Partner breaches this Agreement or the Platform Terms; or
    • (e) the Company otherwise determines, acting in good faith and on commercially reasonable grounds, that continuation of the Promotional Benefit is no longer appropriate.

    3B. Complimentary Promotional Challenges

    The Company may, in its discretion, provide the Partner with a Challenge free of charge as a conditional Promotional Benefit for the purpose of generating genuine, high-quality promotional coverage (a “Complimentary Challenge”). The Company may specify in writing the applicable content, platforms, frequency, timing, tagging, disclosures, reporting, analytics, and other promotional requirements (the “Promotional Requirements”). Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Partner must document and share the material stages of its Complimentary Challenge journey with its audience, including its commencement, meaningful progress and outcome.

    A Complimentary Challenge does not itself give rise to any payout, profit share, reward, or other trading-related payment. Passing a Complimentary Challenge does not automatically entitle the Partner to receive or activate a Funded Account. Full and timely compliance with the Promotional Requirements, together with all other eligibility requirements and applicable terms, is a condition precedent to the Partner receiving, activating or retaining any resulting Funded Account and becoming entitled to any payout, profit share, reward, or other trading-related payment arising from that Funded Account.

    If the Company determines in its reasonable discretion that the Partner has materially failed to satisfy the Promotional Requirements—including by failing to publish agreed content, providing incomplete or materially substandard coverage, removing content prematurely, failing to document material stages of the Complimentary Challenge journey to a professional standard, or providing false, incomplete or unverifiable information—the Company may refuse to provide or activate a Funded Account, regardless of whether the Partner otherwise passed the Complimentary Challenge.

    If a Funded Account has already been provided, the Company may suspend, withdraw, cancel or terminate that Funded Account and withhold or permanently refuse, in whole or in part, any unpaid payout, profit share, reward, or other trading-related payment arising from it. This applies even if the Partner otherwise satisfied the applicable trading-performance or payout criteria. Providing or activating a Funded Account does not waive the Company’s rights where a failure to comply is subsequently discovered.

    The Company may, in its reasonable discretion, permit the Partner to remedy a failure. The Company is not required to provide an opportunity to remedy where the promotional timing or commercial opportunity has passed, the failure cannot reasonably be corrected, or the failure involved dishonesty, manipulation, or materially misleading conduct.

    For the avoidance of doubt, this Section applies only to trading-related payments arising from Complimentary Challenges and resulting Funded Accounts. It does not apply to Partner Commissions except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

    4. Commission Structure

    The Company shall pay the Partner commissions in accordance with the commission structure agreed between the Company and the Partner from time to time.

    The applicable commission rates, revenue share, bonuses, promotional incentives, or other compensation arrangements may be agreed in any written form, including by email, messaging applications (including Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, or similar platforms), the Partner Dashboard, the Company's website, or any other written communication issued or approved by the Company.

    Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, commissions apply only to:

    • completed, valid, non-refunded purchases;
    • users properly attributed to the Partner in accordance with the Company's tracking system; and
    • net revenue actually received by the Company after refunds, chargebacks, payment processing reversals, taxes collected on behalf of governmental authorities, and other transaction reversals.

    A "Qualifying Purchase" means a completed payment for a ZoneX product or service that is not refunded, reversed, disputed, fraudulent, or otherwise determined by the Company to be invalid.

    The Company may modify its products, pricing, commission programs, or promotional offerings from time to time. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, commissions shall be calculated based on the commission arrangement and pricing applicable at the time the Qualifying Purchase is made.

    No commission arrangement shall be binding unless confirmed by the Company in writing through one of the communication methods described in this Section.

    Lifetime Attribution. Commission rates agreed between the Company and the Partner apply for the lifetime of each referred user's account, on all Qualifying Purchases made by that user. Any subsequent change to the commission rate — however evidenced, including by email, Telegram, WhatsApp, X (Twitter) chat, or any other written communication method contemplated in this Section — shall apply only to users referred and attributed to the Partner on or after the effective date of the change. Users referred and attributed before that date shall continue to earn the Partner the previously agreed rate for the lifetime of their accounts. By way of example only: if the parties agree to a 40% rate and later agree to change it to 30%, the Partner shall continue to receive 40% for the lifetime of every user referred and attributed prior to the change, and 30% for the lifetime of every user referred and attributed thereafter, and the same principle shall apply to any further changes. Attribution shall be determined in accordance with Section 5.

    5. Attribution Model

    Attribution is based on:

    • referral link tracking
    • account-based assignment

    A user is attributed to the Partner when:

    • they register through the Partner's link, or
    • they are otherwise assigned to the Partner by the Company's system

    Single Partner Attribution. Each user account may be attributed to only one Partner. Once a user has been attributed to a Partner, subsequent use of another Partner's referral link or referral code shall not change that attribution unless otherwise determined by the Company in the case of manifest error, system malfunction, fraud, or abuse.

    Referral Code Attribution. A user may also be attributed to a Partner by entering or applying the Partner's referral code after registration where such functionality is permitted by the Company's system.

    Discounts and Promotional Codes. The use of a promotional or discount code other than the referring Partner's code shall not affect the user's existing Partner attribution. Any discount associated with a Partner referral link or code may be replaced by another valid promotional or discount code applied at checkout. Promotional and discount codes may not be combined or stacked unless expressly permitted by the Company.

    Complimentary Challenges. Free, complimentary, or otherwise non-revenue-generating Challenges, products, or services do not constitute Qualifying Purchases and generate no commission.

    The Company's tracking system shall determine attribution, and such determination shall be final and binding absent manifest error or demonstrable system malfunction, as determined by the Company acting in good faith.

    6. Payout Terms

    Payouts are made monthly within fifteen (15) days after period end, subject to a minimum threshold of $200. Any delay shall be limited to reasonable verification or compliance requirements.

    Payment method: Partner's crypto account to be provided by Partner separately by email to accounting@zonex.pro.

    The Company may adjust or withhold commissions only where reasonably required due to refunds, chargebacks, suspected abuse, or verification requirements.

    The Partner agrees to provide any identification, verification, or compliance documentation reasonably requested by the Company, including KYC/AML information. Failure to provide such information may result in suspension of payouts and/or termination of this Agreement. The Company may require completion of KYC/AML verification as a condition to any payout.

    The Company may offset any amounts owed to the Partner against any amounts due from the Partner, including in connection with refunds, chargebacks, or breaches of this Agreement.

    Payment may be made in USD or USDT, as determined by the Company.

    The Partner shall not be entitled to set off any amounts against commissions payable by the Company.

    The Partner is solely responsible for any taxes, duties, or other governmental charges arising from payments received under this Agreement. The Company shall have no responsibility for withholding or reporting taxes on behalf of the Partner, except as required by applicable law.

    Payments made by the Company and not disputed in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt shall be deemed final and accepted.

    7. Content & Conduct Requirements

    The Partner must:

    • not make false or misleading statements
    • not guarantee profits or earnings
    • clearly present ZoneX as a trading evaluation platform and not as an investment service, financial product, or guaranteed income opportunity
    • comply with applicable laws, advertising regulations, and the Platform Terms

    The Company may provide branding guidelines or examples, which the Partner agrees to follow where provided.

    Prohibited:

    • spam
    • fake traffic
    • self-referrals
    • misleading marketing

    The Partner shall not attempt to circumvent the Company's tracking systems, redirect users outside official channels, or otherwise interfere with attribution or revenue tracking.

    The Partner shall review and familiarize themselves with the ZoneX Challenge Rules, Challenge Terms & Conditions, Terms of Use, and any related platform rules (collectively, the "Platform Terms") prior to promoting ZoneX.

    The current version of the Platform Terms is available on the Company's website at https://zonex.pro. The Company may update such terms at its sole discretion from time to time, and continued participation in the Partner Program constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. Non-compliance with the Platform Terms shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.

    The Partner agrees to present the platform, its rules, limitations, and conditions accurately and shall not omit material information that would affect a user's understanding of the service.

    The Partner shall not misrepresent challenge requirements, risk parameters, payout conditions, or the nature of the evaluation process.

    In the event of any inconsistency between promotional content and the Platform Terms, the Platform Terms shall prevail.

    The Company may require removal or modification of any content that it reasonably considers inaccurate, misleading, or non-compliant.

    The Partner is solely responsible for the content they publish and any claims made therein.

    The Partner shall promptly comply with any request by the Company under this section.

    The Partner shall ensure that all promotional content is compliant with applicable advertising, financial promotion, and consumer protection laws in any jurisdiction in which such content is distributed.

    The Partner shall not target or direct marketing to jurisdictions where such promotion would be restricted or unlawful.

    Where required by applicable law or best practice, the Partner shall include appropriate disclaimers, including that trading involves risk and that ZoneX does not provide investment advice.

    The Company may require the Partner to include specific wording or disclaimers in promotional materials.

    The Partner agrees to comply with the ZoneX Partner Guidelines (https://zonex.pro/en/partners/partner-guidelines), as made available on the Company's website, and as updated from time to time. The Partner is responsible for regularly reviewing the Platform Terms and the Partner Guidelines as updated from time to time. Non-compliance with either shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.

    The Company may modify such guidelines at its sole discretion, and continued participation in the Partner Program constitutes acceptance of the updated guidelines.

    The Partner shall not, during the term of this Agreement, engage in any activity intended to redirect or divert users acquired through the Partner Program to competing services in a manner that circumvents the Company's tracking or revenue model.

    Streaming Partner Requirements

    Any Partner participating in the Partner Program through livestreaming, recorded trading streams, or substantially similar video content (a “Streaming Partner”) shall comply with the following requirements as a condition of maintaining Streaming Partner status:

    (a) Mandatory Use of ZoneX Platform. During any stream or video presented as ZoneX-related Partner activity, the Streaming Partner shall use the ZoneX trading platform for the relevant trading activity. The ZoneX platform shall be clearly and reasonably visible to viewers during material portions of the stream.

    (b) Mandatory ZoneX Branding. The Streaming Partner shall prominently display on the principal viewing screen or other highly visible area of the stream:

    • (i) the ZoneX name and/or ZoneX logo;
    • (ii) the Streaming Partner's unique ZoneX referral link, referral code, or other attribution mechanism designated by the Company; and
    • (iii) a short description of ZoneX approved by the Company or consistent with the Company's then-current brand and marketing guidelines.

    Such information must be displayed in a size, location, and manner reasonably calculated to be readily visible and understandable to viewers and shall not be deliberately obscured, minimized, or placed in an area where viewers would not ordinarily see it.

    The Company may issue or modify reasonable brand, placement, disclosure, and presentation requirements from time to time, and continued participation as a Streaming Partner shall be subject to compliance with such requirements.

    (c) Minimum Streaming Activity. Unless otherwise agreed or waived by the Company in writing, each Streaming Partner shall complete a minimum of ten (10) hours of Qualifying Streaming Activity during each calendar week.

    “Qualifying Streaming Activity” means bona fide livestreaming or comparable video activity that materially features, demonstrates, discusses, or promotes ZoneX and, where trading activity is shown, uses the ZoneX trading platform.

    The minimum streaming requirement constitutes a condition of eligibility for continued participation as a Streaming Partner and for continued eligibility to earn revenue-share compensation, commissions, Promotional Benefits, and other benefits associated with Streaming Partner status.

    Failure to satisfy the minimum streaming requirement may, at the Company's reasonable discretion, result in warning, suspension, reclassification, modification of the Partner's revenue-share or commission terms with respect to future referrals, suspension of eligibility to earn additional compensation, withdrawal of Promotional Benefits, or termination from the Partner Program.

    The Company may waive, reduce, modify, or suspend the minimum streaming requirement for any Streaming Partner without being required to extend equivalent treatment to any other Partner.

    For the avoidance of doubt, the minimum streaming requirement is a contractual eligibility requirement of the Partner Program and does not prescribe the Streaming Partner's working hours or create an employment relationship. Subject to the requirements of this Agreement, the Streaming Partner independently determines when, where, and how the Streaming Partner conducts its activities.

    (d) Streaming Performance and Audience Metrics. In addition to the minimum streaming activity requirements set out above, the Company may evaluate a Streaming Partner's continued eligibility, Partner classification, commission or revenue-share level, Promotional Benefits, and other Partner benefits by reference to the Streaming Partner's actual audience reach, viewership, engagement, and performance.

    For livestreaming platforms, including Twitch, Kick, YouTube Live, and substantially similar platforms, the Company may consider metrics including Average Concurrent Viewers (“ACV”), average returning viewers or equivalent returning-viewer metrics, peak concurrent viewers, total minutes watched, unique viewers, unique chatters, follower or subscriber growth, engagement, referral traffic, registrations, conversions, and any other reasonably relevant audience or performance metric made available by the applicable platform.

    No particular audience metric guarantees continued participation in the Partner Program or eligibility for any particular commission rate, revenue share, Promotional Benefit, or other Partner benefit.

    The Company may establish or modify reasonable minimum audience, engagement, or performance requirements applicable to Streaming Partners or particular categories of Streaming Partners from time to time.

    (e) Mandatory Streaming Analytics Reporting. Upon request by the Company, and in any event where the Company has notified the Streaming Partner that reporting is required for a particular stream, campaign, promotional period, or Partner arrangement, the Streaming Partner shall provide the Company with reasonably verifiable analytics relating to the applicable ZoneX-related streaming activity within seventy-two (72) hours following completion of the relevant stream or the Company's request, as applicable.

    The required analytics shall include, to the extent available through the applicable streaming platform:

    • (i) Average Concurrent Viewers (“ACV”);
    • (ii) total minutes watched;
    • (iii) unique chatters;
    • (iv) peak concurrent viewers;
    • (v) returning viewers or the applicable platform's equivalent returning-viewer metric; and
    • (vi) such other reasonably relevant audience, engagement, traffic, or performance metrics as the Company may request.

    The Streaming Partner shall provide such information through a live dashboard screen-share with the Company, an official Media Kit or analytics export generated by the applicable streaming platform, or another verifiable method approved by the Company.

    The Company may require the Streaming Partner to display the applicable platform dashboard or analytics interface during a live screen-share where reasonably necessary to verify the authenticity, completeness, or accuracy of reported metrics.

    The Streaming Partner shall not manipulate, falsify, selectively alter, materially omit, or misrepresent streaming analytics or audience data provided to the Company.

    The Company may reasonably rely upon the analytics and information supplied by the Streaming Partner in determining the Partner's eligibility, classification, commission or revenue-share terms, Promotional Benefits, continuation in the Partner Program, and compliance with this Agreement.

    (f) Failure to Provide or Verify Streaming Analytics. Failure or refusal to provide required analytics within the applicable seventy-two (72) hour period, provision of materially incomplete or unverifiable information, refusal to reasonably cooperate with verification, or manipulation or falsification of streaming analytics shall constitute a failure to satisfy the Streaming Partner requirements under this Agreement.

    The Company may, at its reasonable discretion, respond to such failure by warning the Streaming Partner, requiring additional verification, suspending Promotional Benefits, suspending or reclassifying the Streaming Partner, modifying commission or revenue-share terms with respect to future referrals, suspending eligibility to earn additional compensation, or terminating the Partner's participation in the Partner Program.

    Intentional falsification, manipulation, fabrication, or fraudulent misrepresentation of audience or streaming analytics may be treated as fraud or abuse under Section 9 and may constitute grounds for immediate termination.

    Company Educational and Platform Support

    The Company may provide Partners with reasonable onboarding, education, consultation, and support concerning the ZoneX platform, including its functionality, features, products, services, competitive characteristics, differentiating features, and potential advantages.

    The Company may provide approved marketing materials, product descriptions, talking points, demonstrations, brand assets, and other information intended to assist Partners in accurately understanding and presenting ZoneX.

    The Company may require a Partner to correct, remove, or discontinue any statement, representation, or content concerning ZoneX that the Company reasonably determines to be inaccurate, misleading, outdated, unlawful, inconsistent with the Company's current products, services, policies, Platform Terms, or Partner Guidelines, or potentially harmful to the ZoneX brand.

    Any information supplied by the Company for these purposes is educational, informational, or promotional in nature and does not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice or any representation or guarantee regarding trading performance or results.

    8. Partner Activity and Inactivity

    Partners are expected to maintain meaningful and ongoing promotional activity throughout their participation in the Partner Program.

    For Partners whose principal promotional activities consist of social-media posts, written content, photographs, graphics, community posts, articles, messages, or other non-streaming promotional activity (“Publishing Partners”), a Partner shall be considered “Active” where the Partner regularly undertakes bona fide promotional activity reasonably intended to promote ZoneX, generate awareness of ZoneX, direct prospective customers to ZoneX, or otherwise support the objectives of the Partner Program.

    Without limiting the Company's discretion to evaluate activity based on the circumstances, a Publishing Partner who conducts no meaningful ZoneX-related promotional activity for thirty (30) consecutive days shall be presumed inactive unless the Company has agreed otherwise in writing.

    In determining whether a Partner remains Active, the Company may consider the frequency, quality, and relevance of publications; audience reach and engagement; referral-link activity; traffic; registrations; conversions; responsiveness to Company communications; and other reasonably relevant factors.

    The Company may establish or modify reasonable minimum activity requirements for particular Partner categories, platforms, campaigns, or compensation levels from time to time.

    If the Company determines that a Partner has become inactive or has failed to maintain a commercially reasonable level of participation, the Company may, at its reasonable discretion, warn, suspend, reclassify, or terminate the Partner or modify the Partner's eligibility for future commissions, revenue share, Promotional Benefits, or other benefits.

    For Streaming Partners, the specific minimum activity requirements contained in Section 7 shall apply in addition to this Section.

    9. Fraud & Abuse

    The Company may:

    • temporarily suspend the Partner account and/or access to the platform
    • reverse commissions
    • terminate this Agreement

    if it determines, based on reasonable assessment:

    • fraudulent activity
    • self-referrals
    • artificial traffic
    • abuse of the system

    The Company's determination under this section shall be made in its reasonable discretion.

    The Partner shall not bid on or purchase advertisements using the Company's name, trademarks, or confusingly similar terms without prior written consent.

    The Company may withhold commissions where traffic or user acquisition is of low quality, non-genuine, or not commercially reasonable, as determined in its reasonable discretion.

    The Company may adjust or reject commissions where transaction patterns indicate abuse of pricing, promotions, or system mechanics, even if not explicitly listed as prohibited conduct.

    10. Term and Termination

    This Agreement continues until terminated by either party.

    The Company may terminate this Agreement:

    1. For cause, with immediate effect, including but not limited to:
      • breach of this Agreement
      • fraud, abuse, or manipulation of the system
      • misleading or non-compliant marketing
      • violation of applicable laws, the Platform Terms, the Partner Guidelines, or any other rules, policies, or requirements governing the Partner Program, as updated from time to time.
    2. For inactivity or failure to satisfy the applicable Partner activity requirements under Section 7 or Section 8
    3. For convenience, upon 14 days' written notice, for commercial, operational, or strategic reasons

    Upon termination:

    • no new commissions accrue after the termination date
    • accrued and verified commissions shall be paid, subject to compliance with this Agreement and verification, provided that such commissions are not subject to reversal, withholding, or adjustment under this Agreement
    • the Company may withhold or adjust commissions in case of breach, fraud, or invalid transactions

    Any Promotional Benefits provided under Section 3A shall automatically terminate upon termination of this Agreement unless the Company expressly agrees otherwise in writing.

    The Company may terminate this Agreement immediately if required by a payment provider, regulatory authority, or applicable law.

    10A. Force Majeure

    Neither party shall be liable for failure or delay in performance due to events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to technical failures, platform outages, network interruptions, acts of government, or other force majeure events.

    11. Commission Continuity (Lifetime of Referred User)

    The Partner shall be entitled to recurring commissions on qualifying purchases made by users validly referred by the Partner, for the duration of such user's activity on the ZoneX platform ("Lifetime of the User").

    For purposes of this Agreement, "Lifetime of the User" means:

    • the period during which the referred user maintains an active account and continues to make qualifying purchases on the platform
    • An "active account" means an account that has not been suspended, terminated, or inactive for more than 120 consecutive days

    For the avoidance of doubt, "Lifetime of the User" does not create any vested or perpetual right to commissions.

    Commissions are subject to the following conditions:

    • the Partner remains in compliance with this Agreement
    • the Partner maintains reasonable ongoing promotional activity
    • the Partner does not engage in fraud, abuse, or prohibited conduct
    • the referred user's transactions are valid, non-refunded, and not subject to chargeback
    • the Partner is not inactive under Section 8

    The Company reserves the right to:

    • suspend or terminate commissions in cases of breach, abuse, or inactivity of the Partner
    • adjust or discontinue the Partner Program for commercial or regulatory reasons upon reasonable notice

    For clarity:

    • commissions shall cease upon termination of this Agreement, except where the Company determines otherwise in writing
    • no vested or perpetual right to future commissions is created

    12. Intellectual Property; Partner Content and Promotional Rights

    The Partner hereby grants the Company, its affiliates, successors, assigns, contractors, and service providers a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free, and fully paid-up licence to use, reproduce, copy, publish, display, distribute, communicate, transmit, broadcast, rebroadcast, repost, share, edit, crop, adapt, modify, excerpt, translate, reformat, combine with other materials, create derivative works from, and otherwise use or exploit any content created, published, posted, streamed, or otherwise made publicly available by or on behalf of the Partner that relates to, references, depicts, discusses, reviews, demonstrates, or promotes ZoneX, the ZoneX platform, any ZoneX product or service, or the Partner's participation in the Partner Program (“Partner Content”).

    Partner Content includes content appearing on YouTube, Twitch, Kick, X, Telegram, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Discord, websites, blogs, podcasts, forums, newsletters, and any other existing or future media, social-media platform, or communication channel.

    The Company may use Partner Content, in whole or in part, for advertising, marketing, promotional, commercial, informational, and educational purposes, including on Company websites, applications, social-media accounts, advertisements, presentations, emails, promotional campaigns, and other media, in such manner, format, and context as the Company determines appropriate.

    The Partner authorises the Company, in connection with such use, to use the Partner's public name, professional name, channel name, username, social-media handle, image, likeness, voice, logo, and other publicly used identifying information appearing in or associated with the Partner Content.

    No further consent, approval, notice, royalty, or additional payment to the Partner shall be required for any use authorised by this Section.

    The Partner represents and warrants that the Partner possesses all rights necessary to grant the foregoing rights and shall not knowingly include third-party material in Partner Content in a manner that would prevent the Company from exercising the rights granted under this Section.

    The rights granted under this Section shall survive termination or expiration of the Partner's participation in the Partner Program.

    12A. Funded Trader Payout Publicity; Partner Commissions

    Where a Partner also participates in a ZoneX funded trading program, the Partner acknowledges and agrees that any payout, profit share, reward, or other trading-related payment received by the Partner in the Partner's separate capacity as a funded trader (“Funded Trader Payout”) may be publicised by the Company.

    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may publish and promote information concerning any such Funded Trader Payout, including the Partner's public name, professional name, username or trading alias, social-media handle, profile image or avatar, funded account or Challenge size, payout amount, payout date, relevant trading achievement or milestone, leaderboard position, payout confirmation, and screenshots or other evidence reasonably demonstrating the payout or achievement.

    The Company may use such information worldwide for advertising, marketing, promotional, commercial, educational, and informational purposes on any Company website, application, social-media account, community, advertisement, promotional campaign, presentation, newsletter, email, press communication, or any other existing or future media or communication channel.

    The Company may reproduce, publish, repost, display, distribute, format, crop, edit, caption, combine, and otherwise adapt such information and materials in such manner and format as the Company determines appropriate, provided that the Company shall not materially misrepresent the amount or nature of the actual Funded Trader Payout or trading achievement.

    The Partner grants these rights without any requirement for further consent, approval, notice, royalty, or additional compensation. These rights shall survive termination of the Partner relationship with respect to Funded Trader Payouts and achievements occurring during the Partner's participation in a ZoneX funded trading program.

    For the avoidance of doubt, commissions, referral fees, revenue-share payments, bonuses, and other compensation earned solely as a result of participation in the Partner Program (“Partner Commissions”) are separate from Funded Trader Payouts. The Company shall not publicly disclose the amount of an individual Partner's Partner Commissions without that Partner's consent, except where disclosure is required by applicable law, regulation, court order, or competent authority.

    Nothing in this Section limits the Company's right to publicise Funded Trader Payouts made to other ZoneX funded traders pursuant to the terms applicable to those funded traders.

    13. Company Commitments

    The Company shall maintain a functioning partner tracking and payment system in good faith.

    14. Program Changes and Agreement Updates

    The Company may amend this Agreement from time to time by publishing an updated version through the Partner Dashboard, the Company's website, or by other written notice. Continued participation in the Partner Program requires acceptance of the then-current version of this Agreement. If the Partner does not electronically accept an updated version within the period specified by the Company, the Company may suspend or terminate the Partner's participation in the Partner Program. Any updated Agreement shall apply prospectively from its effective date or the Partner's acceptance, as applicable.

    15. Dispute Resolution

    Any disputes shall first be addressed through good faith discussions between the parties.

    Any unresolved dispute shall be finally settled by arbitration in Zurich, Switzerland, in English, by a single arbitrator.

    16. Liability Limitation

    The Company is not liable for indirect or consequential damages.

    Total liability is limited to commissions earned but unpaid.

    17. Indemnity

    The Partner indemnifies the Company against:

    • claims arising from their content
    • regulatory or legal violations
    • misleading or unlawful promotions

    18. Governing Law

    This Agreement is governed by Swiss law.

    19. Entire Agreement

    This Agreement, as updated and accepted by the Partner from time to time in accordance with Section 14, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations, understandings, and previously accepted versions relating to its subject matter.

    20. Notices

    Any notices under this Agreement may be delivered by postal mail or email to the address provided by the Partner.

    The Company may deliver notices through the platform or via the Partner's registered email address.

    21. Electronic Acceptance

    This Agreement may be accepted electronically, including by clicking an acceptance checkbox or similar mechanism on the Company's platform. Such electronic acceptance shall constitute a legally binding agreement between the parties.

    The Company may rely on electronic records of acceptance maintained in its systems, including timestamp, user identification, and IP address, as conclusive evidence of acceptance of this Agreement.

    The Agreement is maintained as an online webpage rather than a static document. Accordingly, version control and record-keeping of accepted versions shall be managed through the Company's systems.

    Each subsequent electronic acceptance of an updated version of this Agreement shall supersede the previously accepted version from the effective date of the updated Agreement, without affecting any rights or obligations that accrued prior to such date unless expressly provided otherwise.

    22. Language and Prevailing Version

    This Agreement may be translated into other languages for convenience only. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the English version and any translated version, the English version shall prevail.
