You shall cooperate with us, and to the extent necessary our third party service providers, to give effect to the terms and spirit of this Agreement.

13.  We shall make reasonable efforts to make any payments due to you in a timely fashion. However, we shall not be liable for occasional delays or delays outside of our control. For example, any changes in the contact or banking details provided by you may give rise to a delay of up to 30 days in making any payments due. Where you become aware of any overdue payments due to you, please contact us immediately and we will seek to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

14.  We shall use reasonable endeavours to make payments due to you using the payment details provided to us. However, in certain circumstances we may be unable to make payments to you for reasons outside of our control (for example where the bank account details provided are inaccurate or incomplete). Where this occurs, we shall make reasonable efforts for a period of up to six (6) months to contact you via the contact details last provided by you to COSMOSWIN AFFILIATES to obtain alternative payment details. If we are still not in a position to make the payments after this period, we may close or suspend your account without further notice and you shall be deemed to have forfeited any entitlement to payment.

15.  If an error is made in the calculation of your share of the revenue share, COSMOSWIN AFFILIATES  reserves the right to correct such calculation at any time and to reclaim from you any overpayment made by COSMOSWIN AFFILIATES  to you (including, without limitation, by way of reducing future payments which might otherwise be due to you from us from time to time).
