We are dedicated to earning your trust and protecting your privacy.
In order to achieve this goal irefer adheres to the following core principles:
We will never share your contact information with another user, without your consent.
We will never share contact information submitted during the introduction process with a Marketer,
unless the introduction is accepted.
We will never rent or sell your personally identifiable information to third parties outside
the irefer network.
Any sensitive information that you provide will be secured with all industry standard protocols and technology.
INFORMATION COLLECTED BY IREFER.
irefer collects two types of information about users: personal information
(such as name and e-mail address and points of interest) and aggregate information
(such as information about how many users access our sites on a daily basis).
PERSONAL INFORMATION
Personal information is collected when users voluntarily opt-in to becoming registered users,
receive electronic newsletters, use community and communication services, answer surveys,
enter contests and participate in other promotional opportunities provided on irefer web sites.
REGISTRATION & PROFILE INFORMATION
In order to become an irefer registered user, you must first create an account on this web site.
To create an account you are required to provide the following contact information: name and email address.
INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR CONTACTS
In order to invite others to participate in irefer managed Referral Opportunities, you will drive
them to your irefer web site created just for you. This information will be used by irefer to send your
opportunity the fulfillment piece of your choice. The names and email addresses of people that you invite
will be used only to send your opportunity and reminders.
AGGREGATE INFORMATION
One method of collecting aggregate information about your activities online (such as the pages they
access most frequently), and information volunteered by you (such as survey or registration information),
is by tracking Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to
your computer whenever you surf the Web. The computers that deliver the Web pages to you automatically identify
your computer by its IP address. When a page is requested from your site, our servers log (or record) your IP
address. When they visit this site, we automatically record the name of the domain from which they accessed the
site and the type of client computer and type of Web browser that you use. If you got to a irefer Web site by
means of a link from another site, our computers will note the fact that you came to us from that linked site.
USE OF INFORMATION COLLECTED BY IREFER.
The information collected by irefer may be used to send you information about referral opportunities and other
related communications. We may also use this information to make offers to you and to help us further develop
irefer Web sites and/or proactively tailor our sites to your interests.
SHARING DATA WITH THIRD PARTIES
irefer may share aggregate information with third parties for advertising and promotional purposes.
irefer may also share personal information with consultants and affiliates for internal business purposes
and may divulge personal information if such information if subpoenaed, or if irefer believes that membership
has been used to commit unlawful acts, or acts that may endanger the health or safety of another user or of the
general public. In addition, irefer receives personal usage and demographic information from its affiliates
and from third parties and uses this information to improve our products and services.
