7. Use of Affiliate Program
To use our affiliate program, you have to register first. We store and use your personal data, which you transmit in the course of your registration, on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR exclusively to process your partner commissions and to get in touch within the scope of the partner program. We will store your data until you object to its storage by sending an email to affiliate@cleverreach.com and expressing the wish to terminate your partnership. If there are no legal retention periods, your data will be deleted within 10 days after your objection. We will use your email address to notify you of the status of your commissions or to send you corresponding credit vouchers. If after your registration there is an obligation to provide us with your payment data (e.g. account number for payments), this data is required for payment processing. Payment transactions via the usual means of payment (PayPal, direct debit) are made exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. In the case of encrypted communication, the payment data you transmit cannot be read by third parties.
For the implementation of our affiliate program we use the software solution Pareba. Your data will be stored and processed on servers hosted by CleverReach® within the EU.

You’ll receive a credit note when you’ve reached an amount of 100 USD by the 15th of a month. Click on Credit Notes to view the notes as a PDF file.
Your monthly commission is the amount of commission you generated in that month. The available commission amount, on the other hand, describes your commission that is available to you and is transferred when you've reached the payout limit.
