This website routinely collects information about its visitors, subscribers, referrers and customers. This information is obtained in various ways, such as:

VISITOR, SUBSCRIBER, RESELLER OR CUSTOMER INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM 'REGISTRATION'

Registration means that the Visitor, Subscriber, Affiliate or Customer takes active, positive steps to communicate information to this website. This can include pages or 'pop ups' where you register for a newsletter or subscribe to a mailing list; it can include your participation in visitor surveys; it can include requesting information from the website via email, mail, or courier; it may be from joining a referrer program or other membership organization, paid or unpaid; or it may be from ordering a product.

Occasionally complete credit card information may be provided to the website via fax or a fill-in form rather than regular secure merchant service processing. This information is kept at the highest level of security and is never divulged to anyone except the merchant service provider or for the purpose of communication with the customer.

VISITOR EMAIL INQUIRIES

Website visitors who wish to communicate with the website do so under two conditions one, they give their permission for contact by the website; two, they are subject to the general 'SUBMISSION' agreement of this policy. While your email address may or may not be used to solicit you, it is added to the website's general solicitation database.

CUSTOMER EMAIL OR TESTIMONIALS

If you are a customer and send an email to the website, or if you communicate with the site by phone or mail, the website collects information about your communication and by communicating with the site you give your permission to collect, archive, retrieve, and otherwise use any information collected as the site sees fit.

Any communication which, in its sole discretion, the site deems to be a testimonial, may be publicized for commercial purposes.

INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM VISITOR INTERACTION WITH BANNERS, POPUPS, OR SITE ADVERTISERS

Websites use this to keep you 'logged in', to keep track of search criteria, to monitor use, to password protect use of the site or use of products sold by the site. Cookies can also be used to obtain information about your computer configuration or your use of your computer.

Cookies can be used to electronically gather information about you.

While actual use of any information collected may be used quite conservatively, you must assume that it is not. You must assume that information collected is shared with other persons or entities for commercial purposes.

No-Spam Policy

NO-SPAM POLICY

This Website has a strict no-spam policy and will pursue whatever legal steps are necessary to enforce this policy. "Spam," or "Spamming," is also known as Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE) or Unsolicited Bulk E-mail (UBE).

Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE) is herein defined as the sending of any email message to anyone not personally known by you unless it is in specific response to a request for information from you. This definition is independent of how and by whom the Email is actually sent.

Unsolicited Bulk E-mail (UBE) is herein defined as the broadcasting of large quantities of unsolicited Email or postings to news groups through any large quantity delivery system. This definition is independent of how and by whom the Email is actually sent.

Our policy on spam is strict and WILL BE enforced for the benefit of all TheMalaysian.com's referrers and customers. There are many ways to promote TheMalaysian.com web page without the use of spam. Spamming will only ultimately result in all of our web sites being taken down by our Internet Service Provider. Our No-Spam policy is for the protection of all of our representatives, and the company. Continuous online operation is essential. Anything less reduces revenues and profits for everyone.

After a complaint and an investigation, if you are found to have spammed, then we will terminate your referrer position. We will remove your web page and you will forfeit any earned commissions and no refund will be issued. TheMalaysian.com has the responsibility to determine what violates this policy. If you have any doubts concerning acceptable practices, then it is ESSENTIAL that you contact the corporation BEFORE you act. Obviously, the last thing we would ever want to do is to terminate one of our own referrers. However, the Internet is at the heart of our business. Consequently we absolutely must protect it for the sake of our Customers, our referrers and the Company.

Do NOT be confused over points of law. Good corporate citizenship is essential for any marketing company. Spam is upsetting more and more people internationally and they are complaining to their own Attorneys General.

Our No-Spam policy is about being a good corporate citizen in all countries. This eliminates the need for discussions about what is, or is not legal, because it is based on treating our prospective customers and referrers the same way we would want to be treated.

SPECIAL CAUTIONS - Please make sure you understand the following

1) Ignorance of the contents of this policy will not be an acceptable excuse.

2) There are NO acceptable disclaimers that can be added to an unsolicited message that will make the message acceptable. This includes but is not limited to remove instructions, remove links, legislative compliance statements, or general statements as to possible interest in a business opportunity.

3) We do NOT recommend the use of any purchased lists of email addresses. Use of any purchased list of email addresses (opt-in or otherwise) puts your membership at risk if there are any complaints due to problems with the list being out of date, poor quality, improperly gathered, etc.

4) Use of any marketing company that sends your advertisement to their list (opt-in or otherwise) puts your membership at risk if there are any complaints due to problems with the list being out of date, poor quality, improperly gathered, etc.

5) It is NOT acceptable to send someone a message about TheMalaysian.com just because you received an unsolicited message from them.

6) It is NOT acceptable to make uninvited approaches to "Instant Messenger" affiliates.

7) It is NOT acceptable to post any advertising messages to any news groups. Just because you see such messages posted does NOT give you permission to do the same. The only exceptions are those few groups which specifically allow advertising postings.

LATEST UPDATE

This No-Spam Policy was last updated on 1^st July 2007.

Acceptable Use Policy

This Policy was last modified on 1^st July 2007.

TheMalaysian.com does not allow its service to be used for illegal activities. TheMalaysian.com reserves the right to take preventative or corrective actions to protect itself and its users. Thus, TheMalaysian.com has developed an Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), as part of the User Agreement to which each customer agrees at the time of initiation of service. This policy helps customers identify activities that are illegal or may be illegal under certain circumstances, and to identify certain types of activities for which TheMalaysian.com has decided not to be linked in any way even if the activities may be legal. TheMalaysian.com reserves the right to revise the AUP, in order to reflect changing affiliate, customer and business needs.

Despite TheMalaysian.com's active enforcement of its Policies, ultimately it is the responsibility of the user to ensure that all transactions comply with the Acceptable Use Policy and the below guidelines.

Transactions Covered by the Acceptable Use Policy.

The Acceptable Use Policy covers all TheMalaysian.com transactions including purchases and sale of all goods and services, through the seller's own website, or any other website.

Violations of the Acceptable Use Policy.

Violating TheMalaysian.com Acceptable Use Policy may result in temporary or permanent limitation of a member or reseller account. This includes the inability to receive commissions, to remove information from an account, and for referrers to close their accounts as a way of evading the policy. Additionally, referrers whose accounts are permanently limited for violating the Acceptable Use Policy are barred from future use of TheMalaysian.com and its services, and such referrers are not permitted to become referrers of TheMalaysian.com in future.

If you have a question about whether your proposed or existing business violates the Acceptable Use Policy, you can email TheMalaysian.com with the Subject: AUP Compliance Department at: contact@themalaysian.com.
