1. INTRODUCTION

By applying to join our affiliate program, you agree to comply with this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, process, and disclose your personal information.

The term "Data Controller" refers to the entity responsible for determining the purposes and methods of processing personal data under this Privacy Policy.

Mad Men Ltd acts as the Data Controller pursuant to EU Regulation 2016/67, responsible for defining the purposes and means of processing your personal data.

For this Policy, the words “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Mad Men Ltd, the company responsible for your information.

Please refer to Section 7 for contact details of the Data Controller.

2. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you register as an Affiliate, we request and collect your username, website URL, email address, country of residence, and currency preference.

After your Affiliate application is approved, we also collect additional personal information, including your full name, physical address, date of birth, telephone number, and, where applicable, your Skype ID.

3. HOW WE USE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

The personal data you provide is necessary for the performance and enforcement of the contractual relationship between you and us, including notification of any changes to the Terms and Conditions.

Additionally, we may use your data to:

• Contact you with promotional offers, products, or services that may be of interest, but only if you have consented to receive such marketing communications.
• Conduct profiling to personalize, measure, and improve our marketing efforts and deliver more relevant marketing content to you.

We process your personal data for these purposes based on our legitimate interest in marketing activities aimed at offering you relevant products or services. You have the right to opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions in such communications or by adjusting your notification settings in your user interface.

4. SHARING AND DISCLOSURE

4.1 Compliance with Law, Legal Requests, Harm Prevention, and Rights Protection

We may disclose your personal data to courts, law enforcement, government authorities, or authorized third parties when required or permitted by law, or if reasonably necessary:

• To comply with legal obligations;
• To respond to legal processes or claims;
• To assist criminal investigations or suspected illegal activities;
• To protect our interests, your safety, or the safety of others from potential harm or legal liability.

The legal basis for such processing is our legitimate interest in protecting and enforcing our legal rights and safeguarding our business.

4.2 Third-Party Service Providers

We engage third-party service providers, which may be located within or outside the European Economic Area (EEA), to assist in delivering services related to the affiliate program.

These providers have limited access to your data and are contractually required to protect your information and use it solely for the purposes for which it was shared, consistent with this Privacy Policy.

We may share your data with these providers to ensure contract performance, legitimate interests, and legal compliance. Your consent will be sought where required.

You may request a complete list of these service providers who process your data.

4.3 Corporate Affiliates

We may share your personal data with our group companies, including subsidiaries and holding companies, as necessary and in accordance with this Policy’s purposes and legal bases.

4.4 Business Transfers

If we engage in any merger, acquisition, reorganization, asset sale, bankruptcy, or insolvency, we may transfer or share your personal data in connection with the transaction, including due diligence processes.

You will be notified prior to any transfer if your personal information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

5. DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have rights to access, correct, transfer, and delete certain personal data, as well as to object to or restrict its processing.

The extent of these rights depends on factors such as the data’s nature, processing purposes, and applicable legal or operational retention requirements.

You may exercise these rights by contacting the Data Controller via [email protected]. Identity verification may be required before processing requests.

Please note that these rights are not absolute; requests may be denied or fulfilled only partially where legally justified.

You have the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data that you cannot update yourself.

5.3 Data Access and Portability

You may request access to your personal data held by us and receive it in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, and, where technically feasible, request direct transmission to another service provider.

5.4 Data Retention and Erasure

We retain your personal data as long as necessary to perform our contractual obligations and comply with legal requirements. Data no longer necessary for these purposes will be deleted unless retained for legitimate business interests such as fraud prevention or legal investigations.

You may request erasure of personal data when:

• It is no longer necessary;
• You withdraw consent;
• You object to processing;
• It was unlawfully processed;
• Erasure is required by law.

However, we may retain your data to the extent necessary to:

• Comply with legal obligations;
• Protect legitimate business interests including fraud prevention and safety;
• Comply with legal investigations or requests, or prevent harm.

5.5 Withdrawing Consent and Restricting Processing

Where processing relies on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time via your interface settings or by contacting [email protected]. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of prior processing.

Applicable laws may allow you to limit data processing under certain conditions, including:

• Contesting data accuracy;
• Unlawful processing objections;
• Pending legal claims.

5.6 Objection to Processing

You may object to processing based on our legitimate interests; however, we may continue processing if overriding legitimate grounds exist.

You can also object to direct marketing and related profiling.
