Security

This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control.

We will safeguard, according to strict standards of security and confidentiality, any information our customers share with us.

All data that is collected by us or provided voluntarily to us is kept on our server in a secure area. We guarantee that all personal information provided by customers will not be sold or exchanged with any other company.

Access to any of our data is via a Username and Password by Affiliates and Merchants, or by authorized Silvertree Networks employees, who are trained in the proper handling of customer information, to have access to that information. Employees who violate our Privacy Policy will be subject to our normal disciplinary process and subject to dismissal.

While certain areas of this website may be accessed and viewed by members of the public, not all visitors to this website may use our networks. Each Silvertree network is available for use only by persons or entities that join the network as either a Merchant or an Affiliate.

Affiliates must be corporations or other legal entities or adults (at least of the legal age to be able to enter into contracts in the jurisdiction in which they reside) that also operate websites which they use to conduct a business or generate revenues.

In order to become an Affiliate, a person or entity must apply for membership and have the application accepted by Silvertree.

We do not gather information about or from visitors to or users of this website solely as a result of such visits or usage, other than from (i) persons or entities whom we allow to join a network as a Merchant pursuant to a written contract that We and the Merchant sign and physically deliver (a "Merchant Agreement") and (ii) persons or entities whom we allow to join a network as an Affiliate pursuant to either a written contract that We and the Affiliate sign and physically deliver or an "online" contract that the Affiliate can review on the Affiliate registration page on this website and agree to by clicking on a button on that page (an "Affiliate Agreement").

Since our networks are membership-based, and members must enter into a legal contract with Silvertree in order to join and use our networks, and because we do not gather information from visitors to our website who are not Merchants or Affiliates with effective contracts, we do not have a generally applicable "privacy policy" that applies to all users of this website. Instead, each of our contracts with Merchants and Affiliates contains terms that set forth the obligations of Silvertree with respect to the use and disclosure of the information that we gather from our Merchants and Affiliates. In some cases, those terms reflect negotiations that occur between Silvertree and the Merchant or Affiliate; therefore, the terms are not necessarily the same for every individual member of our networks who uses this website.

Information About Affiliates
In order to join a network as an Affiliate, a person or entity has to apply for membership by completing an "online" application on this website. The online application requires personally identifiable information about the applicant. The application form may be viewed by clicking on the Affiliate registration page of this website at www.affiliates.silvertreenetworks.com.

Besides the information that we gather by means of the online application, we may obtain a great deal of personally identifiable information about an Affiliate through a variety of online or offline means. That information includes the Affiliate's contact information, IRS taxpayer identification number (which may be an individual's social security number) and VAT registration numbers (for non-U.S. networks), as well as information about the business conducted by the Affiliate on its website related to the use of our networks, including information about the online marketing strategies and plans and the kinds and volumes of transactions conducted through our networks generally and with specific Merchants.

Silvertree's rights and obligations with respect to the disclosure and use of the information we gather about any Affiliate are governed by the Affiliate Agreement that we enter into with that Affiliate. Usually, that Affiliate Agreement is an "online" form that, as a condition to joining any of our networks, we require each Affiliate to accept by clicking on a button on the Affiliate registration page of our website used for the particular website. In a few special cases, the Affiliate Agreement may be a paper document that is manually signed and physically delivered.

We post on the Affiliate registration pages of this website our "template" form of contract by which we enroll Affiliates. That template changes from time to time and may incorporate policies that we also publish on this website. Each prospective Affiliate is encouraged, and has the opportunity, to review the template and any incorporated policies, including their terms that define the respective obligations of Silvertree and the Affiliate regarding use and disclosure of confidential information and privacy.

All applications for membership as an Affiliate are subject to Silvertree's acceptance. If we do not accept an application, then we may (but have no obligation to) retain the information that the applicant provided in the online application, but we will not disclose it to third parties except as follows:

We may disclose it to government agencies or officials or other third parties if we believe such disclosure to be required or compelled under applicable law or regulations or legal process.

We may disclose it to government agencies or officials upon their request, even if not compelled by a subpoena or other legal process, and without any duty on our part to independently confirm that such agencies or officials are legally entitled to such disclosure.


In the event that Silvertree sells or transfers ownership, operation or control of any or all of its Networks or engages any subcontractor or agent to operate any Network or provide any service related to any Network, Silvertree reserves the right to transfer or disclose all of its data to the buyer, subcontractor or agent.

If we accept an application for membership in a network as an Affiliate, we do retain the information that the applicant provided in the online application. We may also obtain other information about our Affiliates during the course of their usage of our networks, including, but not limited to, information about the volumes of business they conduct through the Network with Merchants or others. We may, but are not obligated to, retain the information that we obtain about any Affiliate after that Affiliate leaves the Network.

We may use and disclose the information we have or acquire about any Affiliate as provided in the Affiliate Agreement, which such Affiliate enters into with Silvertree. The template form of Affiliate Agreement gives Silvertree broad discretion in using and sharing the information that Affiliates provide to us, including the right to furnish any or all of that information to Merchants or other third parties. Silvertree is not responsible or liable for any use or disclosure by any Merchant or other third party of information about any Affiliate that we furnish.

Any Merchant's use of Affiliate data, however obtained, is governed by that Merchant's own contract, if any, with that Affiliate and by its own privacy policies, if any. Silvertree is not responsible or liable for any use or disclosure of any such information by the Merchant or any third party. If the Merchant provides Silvertree with any data about any Affiliate, then that Merchant is solely responsible for ensuring that its provision to us is consistent with that Merchant's own privacy policy, own contract with such Affiliate, applicable legal requirements of other obligations or commitments of such Merchant to such Affiliate.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Silvertree expressly disclaims any obligation or liability to any Affiliate with regard to any use, storage, processing or disclosure of any data about that Affiliate that Silvertree obtains from any Merchant or any third party.

Data About Customers of Merchants and Affiliates
In providing our services, Silvertree does not deal directly with the customers of Merchants or Affiliates. We enable Merchants and Affiliates to create links between their own websites. A visitor who clicks on a Merchant's banner or other promotion on an Affiliate's website is redirected, through our website, to the Merchant's website, where he or she may purchase a product or service or engage in another transaction or activity that entitles the Affiliate to compensation from the Merchant. As a result of such redirection through our website, our technology automatically records the IP (Internet Protocol) "address" of the browser used by the visitor, but that address
