3. Services

Your access to and use of the Services are conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. By accessing or using the Services you agree to be bound by these Terms.

For Brands:

Spread-it is for Spreadians - -Micro-Influencers, storytellers, opinion formers and tastemakers - not celebrities. You may not recognize them but their followers do. It can be more powerful to have one hundred Spreadians with a thousand followers, than one Spreadian with a hundred-thousand followers - so be open.
Spreadians invest a lot of time into creating post submissions for you. Responding to each one quickly will prevent Spreadians from having a negative experience with your brand.
Resist the urge to micro-manage. Everything from bad grammar to shaky footage makes up a unique dialect a Spreadian has crafted with their audience over thousands of posts. If you change the language, you’ll change the Spreadians anticipated response.

For Spreadian:

If you wouldn't recommend the brand for free - don't recommend it for money. Spread-it is for discovers who love sharing cool stuff, and brands they are passionate about.
Spread-it is a platform and different countries have different rules about disclosure so be safe and be transparent. Add #spon #ambassador #brandambassador, #ad or similar in your description tags so that your followers can identify a sponsored post.
Post must stay on the top of your feed for minimum 5 hours and on your platform for 21 days. Spread-it will automatically check your post remains live and exactly as it was when approved by the Brand before paying you commissions.
We invite and approve Spreadians who’ve organically grown their audience. If we find you’re misrepresenting the organic nature and size of your audience we will delete your account.
If you’re seen to be recommending competing brands in quick succession or over-populating your feed with sponsored posts, you’ll lose credibility with Brands and your followers. Stay cool, stay on brand and play nice.
You're not allowed to disclose any information that's shown in Spread-it app, including but not limited to: Client brand name, campaign details and visuals, to any third party who's not registered as a Spreadian

4. Ethics

4.1 At Spread-it we believe that consumers always come first with sponsored posts. Therefore both Brands and Spreadians need to ensure that no campaign or post is false or misleading.

4.2 Spread-it mandates that users comply with the Trade Descriptions Ordinance, Chapter 362, Laws of Hong Kong and all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to the Trade Descriptions Ordinance.

“Personal information,” as used in this policy, is information that may be used to identify an individual, such as a person’s name, email address, or credit card number.

How We Collect Personal Information

We collect personal information in the course of providing our Services to you, including through your voluntary, optional submissions, such as information that you provide to us at the time of registering for our Services, or through your use of our Services. When you register with us for an account, we may collect information such as your name and email address. You may also provide personal information to us in other ways, such as by requesting user support.

We may receive personal information from third parties about their users, and may combine this information with other personal information we maintain about you. If we do so, this policy also governs the combined information.

How We Use Personal Information

We use personal information we collect to provide, improve, and develop our Services, to tailor your user experience, to respond to your inquiries or requests, to prevent or investigate fraudulent or inappropriate usage of our Services, for research and development, to analyze trends, and for the other purposes described in this policy.

In addition, we may use your email address to deliver product information and marketing messages. You may opt-out from receiving these marketing messages by following the instructions provided in the messages to unsubscribe from email communication or by emailing the address provided at the end of this policy.

How We Share Personal Information

We may also provide personal information to our subsidiaries, affiliated companies, and other trusted businesses or persons for the purpose of providing our Services and for our other purposes described in this policy. We limit the personal information shared with these third parties to that which is necessary to carry out those functions.

We may share personal information with third parties (including regulatory or law enforcement authorities) in order to carry out a user’s request or if we believe that doing so is legally required or is in our interest to protect our property or other legal rights (including, but not limited to, enforcement of our agreements), or the rights or property of others.

If you post any of your information to a public area of our Services, please be aware that it is no longer “personal information” for the purposes of this policy, and we or anyone else may use such information without restriction. If you provide access to personal or other information , including your email address or name, to a limited set of other users through any of our privacy controls or other settings, please understand that Spread-it has no control over how others may collect, use, or disclose such information.

Non-Personal Information We Collect, and How We Use It

We may also collect information that is not personally identifiable, and may aggregate personal information or otherwise render it anonymous (that is, non-personally identifiable). We may use non-personally identifiable information we collect to provide, improve, and develop our Services and otherwise to tailor your user experience, to prevent or investigate fraudulent or inappropriate usage of our Services, for research and development, and for the other purposes described in this policy. We may use this anonymous information for various purposes and may share it with third parties. Below are some examples of the types of non-personal information we collect and some specific examples of how we use this information:

· Usage tracking. We may collect non-personal information from your use of our Services. For example, we may collect information about user traffic and usage patterns throughout our site, and similar information regarding the use of our Services. We may also track click-through information, such as IP addresses, from the messages we send to our users. We use the information we collect in these manners to, for example, improve our Services, to develop new products and services, to gauge the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, to discourage and address abusive and fraudulent use of our Services, and to help our users with troubleshooting issues.

· Methods of collection. We collect non-personal information passively using technologies such as standard server logs, cookies, and clear GIFs (also known as “Web beacons”). When you visit our site or use our Services, we may send one or more cookies – a small file containing a string of characters – to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser or recognizes a cookie that is already on your machine. We use cookies to improve the quality of our Service by storing user preferences and tracking user trends, and to customize your experience. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some Services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled. Also, please be aware that third parties may set cookies on your hard drive or use other means of passively collecting information about your use of their services or content. We do not have access to, or control over, these third-party means of passive data collection.

If we directly combine any non-personal information gathered through passive means with personal information, we treat the combined information as personal information under this policy. Otherwise, we use information collected by passive means in aggregated or other non-personally identifiable forms.

Our Commitment to Data Security

In an effort to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

Once we receive personal information, we make reasonable efforts to protect it from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. But we cannot represent or guarantee that personal information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed.
