IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THESE TERMS, DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROGRAM.

1.    Membership Eligibility and Overview

1.1. The Clinique Smart Rewards Loyalty Program (“Program”) is offered at the sole discretion of Estée Lauder Cosmetics Ltd. d/b/a Clinique Canada (“Clinique,” “we,” “our” or “us”). The Program is available to individuals for their personal use only and is limited to one account per individual. Corporations, associations or other groups may not participate in the Program. Individuals who are legal residents of Canada and at least the age of majority in their jurisdiction of residence and who provide and maintain a valid email address are eligible to become members. No purchase is necessary to join the Program. The Program may not be used for any business or commercial purpose and we may refuse to create an account for any reason. Employees of The Estée Lauder Companies and individuals employed by our business partners or vendors are eligible for membership for personal use only but may be excluded from certain benefits of the Program.

1.2. By joining the Program and becoming a Program member, you (individually and collectively, “you,” “your,” or “Member”), agree that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Program Terms and Conditions of Participation (“Program Terms”) and by any changes or modifications we may make. You should review these Program Terms and the related policies and FAQs frequently to understand the terms and conditions that apply to the Program as they may change from time to time. These Program Terms do not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with us, including any agreement for products or services. By enrolling in the Program, you also agree to be bound by our website Privacy Policy and our website Terms and Conditions, which are incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Program Terms, our website Privacy Policy, and our website Terms and Conditions, you cannot participate in the Program. The Program is void where prohibited by law.

2. Program Enrollment

2.1 Eligible individuals may only enroll in the Program by visiting www.clinique.ca (collectively, the “Site”) and following the Program prompts to register for the Program.

2.2. You are required to provide your email address in order to enroll in the Program. You will also need to create an account by providing your name and creating a password in order to access certain Program benefits and rewards. You may also have the opportunity to provide us with your mailing address, birth date and mobile phone number, but this information is optional. You are solely responsible for maintaining the accuracy of your account information and for updating it as required. You may update your personal information on the Site.

2.3. Only one Program account may be associated with a single member and a single email address. In the event of a dispute over ownership of the Program membership account, the member will be deemed to be the authorized account holder of the email address submitted at the time of enrollment. For purposes of these Program Terms, the "authorized account holder" is the natural person who is assigned to the submitted email address by an internet provider, online service provider, or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address.

3. How the Program Works

3.1. The Program is a way in which we reward and thank our loyal customers for purchasing our products and for participating in certain brand experiences on the Site. You are able to earn points and reach Program loyalty tiers by making eligible purchases or taking certain other Program actions. Once you reach a certain loyalty tier and/or earn a certain number of points, you may be eligible for certain benefits and rewards applicable to that tier and/or number of points, which benefits may change from time to time and may be offered on a limited basis. Eligible purchases and other opportunities to earn points will be posted on the Site or may be published through other media (e.g., in-store, in marketing communications, social media, etc.).Visit our FAQs to learn more about earning points and reaching the Program loyalty tiers.

3.2. The Program is a tier-based program determined by the number of points a member has earned within a single year on eligible purchases and through qualifying activities, beginning on the date when you enroll. There are 3 tiers with associated benefits:

. Tier 1, Smart         0 – 249 points

. Tier 2, Brilliant     250 – 499 points

. Tier 3, Genius        500 + points

When you join, you’ll automatically be placed in Tier 1, Smart and be eligible for all the benefits Tier 1 members receive. Once you earn at least 250 points in your first year, you’ll be automatically moved up to Tier 2, Brilliant. If you earn 500 points or more in your first year, you’ll qualify for Tier 3, Genius.

Your status in a particular tier is good for the year in which you qualify for that tier and the following full year. After that, you’ll need to earn enough points to qualify for that tier each year. For example, if you qualify for Tier 2, Brilliant, during your first year, you’ll maintain Brilliant status during your second year. But, if you earn less than 250 points on eligible purchases during your second year, you’ll drop back down to Tier 1, Smart status on your second anniversary date.

3.3. For your purchase to qualify for the Program, you must be enrolled in the Program and (a) be signed into your online account at the time of purchase on the Site; or (b) provide your Program member identification (that is, the email address you registered under the Program) when making a purchase at a Clinique Retail Store or submitting your qualifying receipt(s) from a qualifying retailer within thirty (30) days of the date of purchase. If you are not a Member, your qualifying purchase made at a Clinique Retail Store may still earn you Program points, if (1) you provided an email address at the time of purchase; and (2) you enroll at the Site using that email address within seven (7) days of the date of purchase.

3.3.1. Members receive 1 point for every 1 Canadian Dollar (CAD $1) spent on eligible purchases at the Site and/or at Clinique Retail Stores and 1 point for every CAD $1 spent (excluding sales tax) on eligible Clinique products purchased in store or online at the qualifying retailers. Eligible purchases include regular priced Clinique merchandise and exclude eGift Cards, applicable taxes, discounts, shipping and delivery charges, and/or other excluded charges specified by us from time-to-time. All points earned from purchases on the Site are pending until your order ships, at which point they are fully matured and capable of redemption.

3.3.2. Eligible purchases made in person at certain qualifying retailers in Canada and/or through qualifying retailers’ Canadian websites are eligible for the Program, only if receipts from such purchases are submitted within thirty (30) days of the date of purchase by: (a) uploading a clear image of the receipt or invoice from within your Program account on the Site; or (b) emailing a clear image of the receipt or forwarding the website order confirmation to canada@smartrewards.clinique.com. You must provide your Program member identification (that is, the email address you registered under the Program) when submitting your qualifying receipt(s). Any non-Clinique purchases and personal information on the receipt should be redacted before it is submitted. For more details on how to submit receipts, please click here. A list of qualifying retailers can be found here.

3.3.3. In addition to these purchases, you may also earn points for the following actions on the Site. To earn points, you must be a Program member and be logged into your Program account before completing the actions below. The number of points, if any, awarded for each action is determined by Clinique in its sole but reasonable discretion and in all cases subject to a maximum number of points earned for each action per year.

. Enrolling in the Program
. Completing the Foundation Finder (one time only)
. Completing the Skin Care Diagnostic (one time only)

3.4. Members will not receive points or earn benefits from purchases made at airport store locations or from purchases made at non-qualifying retailers. Purchases made in retail stores outside of Canada are not eligible for the Program.

3.5. Points are valid for one year from your Program “anniversary date.” This is the anniversary of the date you enrolled in the Program and occurs on a 12-month cycle. On your anniversary date each year, your points reset to zero and you start accumulating new points and earning new point rewards.

4. Program Benefits and Rewards
4.1. As a member, you earn points that determine your points benefits plus tier levels and tier benefits. To redeem offers and rewards, you must have accumulated the minimum number of points as established by us for a particular benefit. Product rewards and samples are shipped with product purchases on the Site only. Points may never be exchanged for cash. You must be logged in to your Program account to use your benefits. You will find your eligible offers and rewards (with offer codes if applicable) listed in your personal account. Qualifying members will receive email invitations when event rewards are available if they have not opted-out of receiving Program emails.

4.1.1.   Point Rewards: At different point levels you will be able to redeem your points for rewards that can be used in conjunction with a purchase on the Site. These rewards are based on the number of points you have accumulated in a single year as listed below. You may redeem one reward per transaction on the Site. Specific rewards vary based on availability. You must redeem your available points/rewards prior to your anniversary date, or the available points and rewards will expire.

Tier benefits can only be redeemed on the Site with the exception of exclusive in-store member events and VIP events or as otherwise noted.
