Privacy Promise
You will notice that compared to other internet rewards/loyalty
programs, our privacy statement is quite brief. This is for a very
good reason. The personal information you volunteer is used only
to track, aggregate and provide you with your Loyalty Token Dollars
(LTD's).
We cannot stress strongly enough that the information you provide
us is an important part of our business, and as such we will not
sell or rent your Personally Identifiable Information (PII) to any
third-party.
LTDnetwork is aware that you are concerned about information you
provide us, and we appreciate that you trust us to protect and use
your personal details sensibly. We would like to make a commitment
that we will honor our current privacy policy and pledge that we
will do everything in our power to maintain the highest levels of
customer security now and in the future. If there is any change
to this policy or our procedures we commit to notifying our customers
and providing an easy opt-out option
Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
If you are simply perusing our site and have not registered as a
member of the LTDnetwork, we do not store any PII either on our
websites or our servers. Your PII stored on your own computer, can
be accessed by our proprietary software for the purpose of merchant-payment
fulfillment and LTD tracking.
What we collect
We collect the following personal information about you upon registration:
name, email, password and security question.
In order for you to benefit from the SurfAssist software and accumulate
Loyalty Token Dollar's, the SurfAssist software installed on your
machine. When activated, SurfAssist monitors your online activities,
such as the sites you are visiting, when and how long you visit
the sites and the links that you click on to get there. This statistical
information is collected via the use of cookies, which are tiny
and safe packets of information that reside on your computer.
How we protect your information
LTDnetwork is dedicated to the security of your PII, and we take
every commercially reasonable precaution to maintain that protection.
To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy,
and facilitate the appropriate use of information, your PII is stored
on your own computer.
In addition, encryption tools are used when collecting or transferring
sensitive information such as credit card numbers. Additional database
content is protected either by means of a two key encryption algorithm
or behind a firewall using security software.
Corrections & Updates to Personal Information
Visitors can change or correct information about themselves using
the online forms which are part of our registration system. If there
is a problem with a change being accepted by our system, you may
contact us at the email address: talk2us@LTDnetwork.
Advertising & Merchants
As part of our business model, we insert banner advertisements on
our pages. You should be aware of the following:
- Some of these ads are provided by outside companies.
- These ads may contain cookies. Cookies attached to banner ads
are managed by our advertisers and we do not have access to this
information. To the best of our knowledge, these cookies in and
of themselves do not contain any personally identifiable information
about You.
- For reporting purposes, our advertisers, their agents and we
produce aggregate statistical reports. For example, how many people
saw or clicked on an ad and additionally, how many people saw
or clicked on ads in different portions of our service. Again,
to the best of our knowledge neither advertisers nor their agents
are able discern actual individual users of the site. We definitely
do not record PII and all our statistics are generic and anonymous.
Also as part of our business model we refer customers to the web
site/s of Merchants with which we are affiliated. In some circumstances,
we might share PII with our affiliated Merchants.
Children's Privacy
This statement discloses the privacy practices for portions of LTDnetwork
directed at children under 13. LTDnetwork will NOT:
- collect online contact information from a user under 13 without
prior verifiable parental consent, which includes an opportunity
for the parent to prevent use of the information and participation
in the activity. When we do not obtain prior verifiable parental
consent, online contact information will be used only to directly
respond to the child's request and will not be used to contact
the child for other purposes.
- collect personally identifiable offline contact information
from users under 13 without prior verifiable parental consent.
- distribute to third parties any personally identifiable information
collected from a child under 13 without prior verifiable parental
consent.
- give to children the ability to send e-mail, create personal
web pages, participate in forums or kids chat rooms without prior
verifiable parental consent.
- entice a child under 13 by the prospect of a special game, prize
or other activity, to divulge more information than is needed
to participate in such activity.
- We will also place prominent notice wherever personally identifiable
information is collected, requesting children to ask a parent
for permission to proceed.
The following are details of the information we collect and how
we use it:
LTDnetwork collects data so that we may display personalized content
to our visitors. This data may be analyzed so that we can customise
our content and judge our system's performance. For instance, your
computer reaches us via a particular IP, (InternetProtocol), address.
This tells us from what part of the world your computer is connecting
and what service provider you are using.
Your browser offers "cookies" which store small amounts
of data on your computer about your child's visits to any of our sites.
Cookies assist us in tracking which of our features your child likes
best, so when your child re-visits our LTDnetwork sites, we can customize
our content accordingly. However, cookies tell us nothing about your
child personally, unless you or your child specifically give us additional
information.
Demographic information may be used to customize the display of
our LTDnetwork sites to your child by showing content that we think
might be of interest or related to the child's past visits.
Some of the banner ads displayed in our LTDnetwork sites are provided
by outside companies. These ads may contain cookies. While we use
cookies in other parts of our Web site, cookies received with banner
ads are collected by our advertisers and we do not have access to
this information. Cookies in and of themselves do not contain any
personally identifiable information about your child.
The LTDnetwork Web site includes many topical areas that all users
may access. By giving your verifiable consent to allow your child
to use chat, forums, newsletters, and/or any other functionality
of the LTDnetwork Web site in which your child may provide personally
identifiable information, your child will have access other areas
throughout the LTDnetwork Web site. Please monitor your child's
use of other areas of the Web site which are not directed toward
children.
We produce aggregate reports for advertisers. For example, we tell
advertisers how many people saw or clicked on an ad, and in which
portions of our service. Where available, we may offer additional
information about viewer characteristics. However, this does not
include personally identifiable information or online usage patterns.
Our advertisers allow us to provide our service to our users and
our members. In return, they need to know how to effectively place
their ads to potential customers.
We'll use email contact information to provide members with newsletters
to which the member subscribed, or for similar information we think
the member may find of interest. However, you can choose to discontinue
your child's receipt of these mailouts.
Give Us Your Feedback

notification, and our commitment to post any such changes on this
page so that you are fully informed of the types of information
we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any,
it is disclosed.
Ultimately, our goal is to protect your privacy. To comment on or
