Our terms and conditions have been carefully crafted to ensure compliance with international best practice affiliate program standards. We believe that our program is conducted on a more than fair basis and that our terms and conditions are applied consistently and responsibly. There are naturally cases where we, like any other affiliate program, need to reserve the discretion to act on our own accord and decisively. One such case is where there is evidence of money laundering or other criminal activity, which no responsible operator would tolerate, hence clause 10.3.2 which seems to have been either misunderstood or unfairly criticised. We cannot fathom why anyone would consider the non-payment of affiliate commission in circumstances where there is strong suspicion or evidence of criminal activity?
Similarly, we believe it entirely reasonable to reserve absolute discretion to report details of Affiliates in circumstances where we are legally obliged to do so. Having said that, we are not aware of any affiliate program ever having done so nor of any order of the nature envisaged having been successfully obtained by any enforcement authorities.
As a final word, we must say that we will not be drawn into constant debates about our terms of business but on this occasion as a sign of goodwill to our existing and hopefully future affiliates wanted to clarify the obvious misunderstanding of our terms and conditions which has led to our terms being unfairly and wrongly labeled as ‘predatory’ or ‘alarming’.
All the best,
