We require that all evo publishers adhere to the following standards.  We're happy to be working with you and are available to ensure your success. 

Brand Representation 
All evo.com Affiliates must maintain a high quality, professional and functional website - as deemed by evo. Additionally, any materials promoting evo, including banners, videos etc must represent evo in a way that is consistent with our high brand standards.  Basically, anything we deem to degrade our brand in any way is not allowed.

Publishers may not represent themselves as evo.com, or as a dealer for any of the brands we carry. They must have a unique URL (including domain, subdomain or any component of the url) that does not contain evo.com, trademarked brand names or any misspellings or variations of evo or trademarked names.

Publishers may not serve any evo products through their shopping cart.

evo will not accept affiliates that operate a website or have links to websites that contain or promote any of the following content: gambling, adult/sexually explicit, pedophile, abusive, violent, bigoted, hate-oriented, or any other content that is deemed offensive and inappropriate.

All sites that contain affiliate tracked links to evo.com must be disclosed in publishers details with AvantLink and/or Commission Junction.  

Promotional Messaging
Publishers are prohibited from misrepresenting evo promotions including coupon offers, shipping offers and discounts. We highly encourage publishers to use the JavaScript banners and text ads that will automatically update with the current promotion.  If publishers use the static HTML banners to communicate a promotion, they must be updated as soon as the promotion ends.

Content 
Written consent must be obtained before using any content (including written copy, images and video) from evo.com. This extends to content that is obtained from evo.com and modified.  

We require a citation be included either directly above or below the content, crediting evo as the source. This must include direct links to the source page of the content on evo.com and the evo.com homepage.
