Privacy Policy for Helper Accounts
What we store
Financial data associated with your account, along with your organization's name and ABN (if applicable), are retained by Rbate indefinitely. Other than statistical information, all other account data, including review search engine listings, are destroyed by Rbate three months after you delete that data from your account, or if your account is closed.
Your account password is stored by Rbate in an irreversibly-hashed form.
When you log-in to your Rbate Helper account, Rbate will store a cookie on the browser you are using that will keep that browser logged-in for ten days, unless you remove this cookie either manually or by clicking the "Logout" link.
If you have checked the "Remember" box on product and review search pages, your location is stored in an encoded browser cookie. This cookie will expire if you do not use Rbate's search engines for 18 months.
What we use
Rbate may make use of statistical data, unrelated to any individual browser or account, to improve its service.
Rbate uses the email address attached to your Rbate Helper account to inform you of important information about the operation of your account, and to deliver requested search and bonus offer notifications.
Rbate supplies to other registered Rbate Helpers any email addresses you submit as the contact point for licensing enquiries.
What we share
Statistical data, unrelated to any individual browser or account, may be shared with third-parties, including product makers and other Helpers.
Operators of Rbate Maker accounts are able to see a list of the Help Sources that make use of each of their products, including that source's number of Rmarks, its level of review credit, and its registration date. Links are provided to either the search engine listing of each of these sources, or the source's Web page if the source is not listed.
Help Source information that you have requested to have listed in Rbate's purchasing help search engine is made available to all search engine users. This information may be returned in search results for a short time after you indicate that you no longer wish your source to be listed.
The titles, URLs, categories, and product lists you provide for your Help Sources are displayed in consumer Rmarks of those sources.
Rbate provides information on your use of Rbate's services to government authorities if it is required to do so by law.
What we show
Your username and password on log-in, and all account-related data, is transmitted between Rbate and your browser in encrypted form. However, if your browser supports it, the web pages you view will be cached on your computer's disk, including pages that have been securely transmitted. If you do not want your account data to be seen by other users of your Web browser, disable your browser's disk cache while operating your account.
