This privacy statement discloses the privacy practices for the thankyoupages.com network of sites. Email the Privacy Group at ThankYouPages with any questions, comments and / or concerns. If you have any questions regarding this statement, you should first contact our privacy group by email (privacy@thankyoupages.com) or you can send inquiries via postal mail to: ThankYouPages, Privacy Group, 90 Bridge St., Newton MA, 02458.
ThankYouPages may edit this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes we make will be noted on this page ( http://www.thankyoupages.com/privacy/), so you can be aware of any policy changes or updates. We recommend that you check this page periodically for updates on our policy, as use of the ThankYouPages service will constitute implicit agreement to these terms, as well as any changes. ThankYouPages created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this web site.
Please note that use of the ThankYouPage forms establishes a business relationship between ThankYouPages and the surfer. We are providing a service to surfers by routing their requests through our servers, scripts, and resources.
Information CollectedIn order to assist fraud investigations, abuse investigations, quality assurance, earnings calculations, advertiser requests, and to improve the surfer experience, various bits of personal data may be collected in the process of using the ThankYouPages service. This information could include any data submitted while using the service, such as name and email address, as well as any other diagnostic data available as part of the standard web surfing experience (such as IP address). This information is solely for use by us, and is not provided to outside parties. The IP and date of the ThankYouPage ad request is logged. This is to prevent abuse of the system, as well as to provide recourse for those who are seeking more information on an abuser. Additionally, some non-personally identifiable information may be collected and provided back to affiliates. This data is not shared or otherwise publicly exposed, and is provided to allow the affiliates to improve the quality of service.
Third Party AdvertisersThe ThankYouPages system is designed to provide information and offers from third party companies to the surfer. These come by way of deals / lead generation, as well as by advertising displayed throughout the signup process. In addition, other advertisements may be placed in the service by affiliates, over which ThankYouPages does not have control. When these offers are present in the ThankYouPages system, they are clearly marked as third party offerings. These offers are provided to the surfer as an opt-in, and as such, the surfer can opt to not provide their information to third parties. These offers are completely voluntary, and if a surfer does not wish to opt-in for such offers, they should not sign up for them. If a surfer elects to receive such information or visit off site links, they agree to allow their data to be transmitted to those third parties. As these third parties are not under the control of ThankYouPages, the surfer should be aware of the privacy policies of those specific sites. We recommend the surfer check those sites' privacy policies to be sure they are aware of the use of their personally identifiable information.
The web pages at thankyoupages.com, the domain thankyou.focalex.com, and some of the email sent by ThankYouPages contain links to external sites beyond our control. ThankYouPages cannot represent or guarantee that these third parties' privacy statements conform to our privacy policies. Any site linked to the ThankYouPages site may have a Privacy Statement that differs from our own. Please review the privacy statement of any site linked from ThankYouPages.
CookiesThankYouPages uses cookies for a variety of purposes. Cookies are a piece of data stored in the browser's memory, and may or may not be written to the surfer's hard drive when the browser is closed. This allows customization of what is displayed to the surfer across sessions, enables tracking of user actions, and user profiling. Information stored in cookies may be added to our databases, or used as a means to identify a user. While a user can use ThankYouPages sites without cookies enabled, displays will not be customized, and in some cases, the site may not work at all. Turning off cookies also limits the ability, or in some cases precludes the ability, to participate in various ThankYouPages contests, offers, and giveaways. Some of the advertisers who use our site (both on the web and in e-mail messages) may use cookies on their site. This is something over which ThankYouPages has no control.
COPPAIn accordance with COPPA regulations, ThankYouPages does not allow individuals aged 13 or younger to participate in contests and promotions on pages where ThankYouPages asks for age. Data is not collected from individuals specifying an age of 13 or less. ThankYouPages in some cases employs a drop down box that will only collect data from those citing a year that states their age to be over 13.
Block ListsThankYouPages maintains block lists of both specific email addresses as well as domains, in an effort to prevent abuse of the system. We honor requests to block all future mail, both on the sending and receiving side, though we reserve the right to make the final judgment regarding whether or not a particular email address or domain should be added to the lists. If you find abuse of the system, please contact us at abuse@thankyoupages.com.
Security MeasuresThis site has security measures in place to ensure against the loss, misuse, or alteration of information under our control. ThankYouPages protects the integrity and security of its data by following industry-standard procedures and guidelines. Only key executives and members of the development team at ThankYouPages possess the passwords required to access files requiring security clearances. All ThankYouPages employees are made aware of corporate security policies upon hire, change of position or change of policy.
SeverabilityIf any provision of this document is deemed unenforceable or illegal, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force, and shall not be negated or invalidated. The provision deemed unenforceable or illegal shall be modified by both parties to carry out the intention of the provision as noted in this document.
IndemnityThe surfer agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless ThankYouPages and its directors, officers, agents, and employees for any and all losses, costs, liabilities or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys's and expert witnesses's fees) incurred or arising from (a) any breach of surfer's Covenants, (b) any user-generated content, or (c) any claims arising from the sale or license of goods or services promoted or made available through ThankYouPages. ThankYouPages's indemnity rights shall not be limited or offset by any contributory negligence by ThankYouPages. ThankYouPages may participate in the defense at its expense.
Any additional information offered or any additional services requested by you, the user, outside of the ThankYouPages domain will be subject to the Privacy Statement within that particular site. ThankYouPages is not responsible for actions by the user outside of the thankyoupages.com network.

ThankYouPages's Affiliate Program consists of a network of publisher sites that earn monthly revenue for displaying ThankYouPages's advertising. ThankYouPages's rights of privacy, declared and explained within ThankYouPages's general privacy statement, encompass anyone that submits information from an affiliate's site(s) to a ThankYouPages sign up form. The ThankYouPages Affiliate Team oversees all support representation for program membership. Inquires for the affiliate program can be sent by email to affiliate-info@thankyoupages.com, by phone at 617-559-0155, and finally by postal mail, The ThankYouPages Affiliate Team, 90 Bridge Street, Newton, MA, 02458.
The ThankYouPages Affiliate Program's guidelines are clearly stated in our terms and conditions. All affiliate members, upon registration, have certified that they have read the document and will participate in the ThankYouPages Affiliate Program in adherence to the program's terms. ThankYouPages is an advocate of honest and ethical business practices. As such, ThankYouPages's Affiliate Program does not condone Internet abuse or fraudulence in any regard. Due to the large network of affiliate members, it is sometimes unknown to The ThankYouPages Affiliate Team that abuse and/or fraudulence are taking place on a member's site(s). The ThankYouPages Affiliate Team encourages bringing these cases to our attention by sending a detailed email to abuse@thankyoupages.com.
Information CollectedPublishers who submit an application for entry to the ThankYouPages affiliate program are asking to form a business relationship with ThankYouPages. As such, the application will ask for detailed information that is for internal use. This information will not be provided to outside parties, except in cases of abuse or suspected abuse; fraud or suspected fraud; or by legal, civil, or governmental request. ThankYouPages Affiliate Program registration takes place at www.thankyoupages.com. Required fields are name, email address, mailing address, city, zip/postal code, country, URL, and a check to certify that the terms of service have been read. The Social Security number or Tax Identification number are only required for United States citizens. ThankYouPages does offer a secure server that is linked from the main registration page. The secure server safely encrypts information via the web-based registration form. If the affiliate comes to the registration form from a webmaster referral, ThankYouPages does track the promotion code via cookie (see below for more details on cookies). This information is considered proprietary and private, and is protected with strict standards.
Affiliates' SitesThankYouPages cannot and will not be held responsible for actions that take place on an affiliate member's site(s).
