Sponsor & Influencer Disclosure

1. Disclosure Requirement

Participants, creators, influencers, sponsors, resellers, sales representatives, assistant managers, affiliates, and promoters (collectively "Participants") must clearly disclose any paid relationship, sponsorship, commission, referral fee, free product, discount, ownership interest, or other material connection when promoting Kickball Nation, event sponsors, providers, products, services, or partner offers.

2. FTC Compliance

These disclosure requirements are based on Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines regarding endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255) and related advertising laws. Participants are responsible for understanding and complying with applicable FTC and state advertising disclosure requirements.

3. Disclosure Format

Required disclosures should be:

• Clear: Easy to understand and not hidden in long text
• Visible: Placed with the promotional message, not buried at the end or in a link
• Placed properly: Close to the endorsement or promotional message

4. Disclosure Examples

Acceptable disclosure examples include:

• "Paid partnership with Kickball Nation"
• "Sponsored by [Brand]"
• "I may earn a commission"
• "Ad" or "Advertisement"
• "I received [product/service] for free from [Brand]"
• "Affiliate link — I earn from qualifying referrals"
• "Employee/Reseller of Kickball Nation" (where applicable)

5. Platform-Specific Requirements

Social media platforms may have additional disclosure tools and requirements. Participants should use platform-provided disclosure tools (such as Instagram's "Paid Partnership" tag or YouTube's paid promotion disclosure) in addition to clear verbal or text disclosures.

6. Consequences of Non-Compliance

Failure to properly disclose material connections may result in removal from Kickball Nation programs, termination of reseller or partnership relationships, and potential regulatory action by the FTC or state authorities.
