BRITISH D’SIRE is committed to responsible ecommerce business practices and conducting Referral Program with the highest ethical standards. BRITISH D’SIRE offers an open opportunity to participate in its referral program. The Program is administered by BRITISH D’SIRE.
Referrers or the participants of the referral program are bound by these Terms and Conditions by participating in the Program. By participating in the Program, Referrers agree to use the Program in the manner specified in these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions in their entirety, you are not authorized to register as a Referrer or to participate in the Program in any other manner. Referrers may not participate in the Program where doing so would be prohibited by any applicable law or regulations.
Children
No part of the program is directed to persons under the age of 18. IF YOU ARE UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE, YOU MAY NOT USE, ACCESS OR PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM AT ANY TIME OR IN ANY MANNER.
I. How the Program Works
A. Participation
1. To participate in the Program, Referrers should visit https://britishdsire.com/pages/referral and follow the on-screen instructions to refer friends, colleagues or acquaintance to the program by entering their contact information in the relevant fields.
2. Individuals who receive a referral via a Referrer are "Friend(s)". An "Eligible" Referrer who is fully compliant with these Terms and Conditions may receive "Reward(s)" for every "Qualified Referral” (all terms in quotes to be understood as defined below).
3. By participating in the Program, a Referrer represents that he or she has his or her Friends’ prior consent to provide their contact information.
B. Eligible Referrer
To be Eligible, a Referrer must be at least 18 years old.
C. Making a Referral
1. A Referrer must register at https://britishdsire.com/pages/referral and fill the program form to make a referral. No previous purchase is required (purchasers and non-purchasers alike are eligible). Once a Referrer refers a Friend, he/she will be provided with a confirmation email, and will be contacted if a Qualified Referral is made by the referred Friend within three months.
2. Referrers must respect the spirit of the Program by only referring real individuals who meet the requirements of these Terms and Conditions. Referrers cannot refer themselves. For example, a Referrer may not create multiple or fake accounts with British D’sire or participate in the Program using multiple or fake email addresses or identities.
D. Qualified Referrals
A Qualified Referral means that all the following conditions are met:
1. The Friend registers as Vendor on BRITISH D’SIRE website and started selling for Qualified Business Referral.

(b) If a friend on successful sign up on BRITISH D’SIRE website registers as Vendor for Television Shopping, then the referrer will get the reward up to Ten Pounds.
Or
The Friend registers themselves as Customer and Friend completed the purchase of at least Fifty Pounds on BRITISH D’SIRE website in one order. If a Friend purchases from or registers with BRITISH D’SIRE using any other method, the registration will not count as a Qualified Referral and the Referrer will not earn Credit;
2. The Friend is not already registered or had not previously made a purchase with BRITISH D’SIRE under any email address or alias;
3. The Friend is-
a) A legal resident of the United Kingdom; and
b) At least 18 years old.

E. Earning Rewards

2. Rewards may be redeemed in various forms in BRITISH D’SIRE’s sole discretion, including, but not limited to in the form of a gift card. Restrictions may apply.

All of BRITISH D’SIRE's decisions are final and binding, including decisions as to whether a Qualified Referral, or Reward is verified.
G. Transfer and Value of Credit and Rewards

The personal information will be collected, processed and used in accordance with BRITISH D’SIRE’s Privacy Statement, which can be found at https://britishdsire.com/policies/privacy-policy.

The personal information may also be used by BRITISH D’SIRE to contact Referrers with regards to their participation in the Program and to send to Referrers additional communications from BRITISH D’SIRE.
