This is how the Milton Insiders program handles your information as a partner: what we collect to run your account, storefront, and payouts, how it is used and shared, and the choices you have.
01Who This Covers
This policy explains how Riithink Digital Marketing ("we," "us"), operating the Milton Insiders program on behalf of Milton Industries, Inc. ("Milton"), handles personal information on this website and in the partner dashboard where Insiders manage their accounts and storefronts.
This policy applies to partners located in the United States. This program is not directed to individuals located in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions outside the United States. If you are located outside the United States, please do not register as a partner.
It does not cover shoppers buying on an Insider's storefront: shopper checkout runs through Milton's commerce platform, and each storefront publishes its own shopper-facing privacy and policy pages. It also does not cover other companies' sites we may link to.
02What We Collect
- Account information. Your name, email address, and password (never stored in readable form — our authentication provider stores only a one-way cryptographic hash), plus profile details you add.
- Storefront content. The branding, logo, copy, product selections, and settings you create for your storefronts, including custom domains you connect.
- Earnings and order data. Orders attributed to your storefronts (order identifiers, amounts, and status), the commissions computed from them, and your payout history.
- Payout and tax details. Your PayPal address or bank account details, and the tax forms we are required to collect (such as IRS Form W-9). Bank account numbers are encrypted at rest with a separately stored key.
- Usage and device data. Log data such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited, and the cookies described in Section 7.
03How We Use It
- Operating the program: running your account and storefronts, attributing orders, computing commissions, and paying you.
- Meeting legal obligations: tax reporting and withholding, accounting, and responding to lawful requests.
- Communicating with you about your account, payouts, and changes to the program or its terms.
- Protecting the program: preventing fraud, abuse, and attribution manipulation, and enforcing our terms.
- Improving the platform, using aggregate and anonymized usage information only.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your content to train AI models without your separate, explicit consent.
05Security, Breach Notification & Retention
Security
Access to partner data is restricted by row-level security in our database. Bank account numbers are encrypted at rest with a separately stored key. All data in transit is encrypted via TLS. No system is perfectly secure; use a strong, unique password and notify us immediately of any suspected unauthorized access.
Breach Notification
In the event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you and any required regulatory authorities as required by applicable law, and in no event later than the timeframe mandated by the laws of your state of residence.
Retention
We keep your information while your account is active. After account closure, we retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Specifically:
- Commission, payout, and tax records are retained for a minimum of seven (7) years, as required by IRS and applicable accounting standards.
- Audit records of payouts are retained to document that payments occurred.
- All other personal data is deleted or anonymized within 90 days of account closure unless a legal hold applies.
06Your Choices & Rights
You can view and update your profile and payout details at any time through the partner dashboard.
Regardless of where you live, you may contact us to:
- Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
- Request that we correct inaccurate information.
- Request deletion of your account and associated data (we must retain what tax and accounting law requires).
- Request a portable copy of your data in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
- Opt out of non-essential email communications. Account notices and payout communications are essential to running the program and cannot be opted out of.
We will respond to all verified requests within 45 days. If additional time is required, we will notify you within the initial 45-day period and may extend our response by up to an additional 45 days where permitted by law.
State-Specific Rights
Residents of any U.S. state with an applicable data privacy law — including but not limited to California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, Oregon, and Montana — have additional rights under those laws, including the right to know, correct, delete, and port data, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. We honor all such rights on request.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the information in Section 9. We will verify your identity against your account email before processing any request.
08Children
The program is for adults only. You must be at least 18 years of age to hold a partner account. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 18. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately and we will promptly delete it.
09Changes & Contact
Policy Changes
If we make changes to this policy, we will post the updated version here with a new "Last updated" date. If the change is material, we will notify you by email or via a notice in the partner dashboard at least 14 days before the change takes effect.
