CoolProducts.com Advertisers and 3rd Party WebsitesThe CoolProducts.com website and emails contain links to various other sites. While CoolProducts.com makes every effort to ensure that our advertisers post clear and complete Privacy Policies and observe appropriate data practices, each of these sites has a privacy policy that may differ from that of CoolProducts.com. The privacy practices of other websites and companies are not covered by this policy.
Except as specifically set forth below, it is our policy not to provide your personally identifiable information to our advertisers unless you make the choice to share it with them. We occasionally pass personally identifiable information via a secure interface to certain of our advertisers for the purpose of making it easier for you to sign up for their offers. However, this information is only to be used by the advertiser if you agree to submit the information to the advertiser for the purposes of completing an offer.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as handling the processing and delivery of mailings, providing customer support, processing transactions, or performing statistical analysis of our services. We will only provide those companies the personal information they need to deliver the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information and are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
In the event that we were unable to capture your transaction detail, CoolProducts.com may need to validate your transaction with an advertiser or merchant partner to ensure that your account is credited with the correct number of Points or to ensure delivery of a product purchased by you. The validation information shared is used solely for this purpose and may include your first name, last name, email address, mailing address or date of birth. We will require that these third parties comply with the information practices set forth in this Privacy Promise and that the information not be shared or used for any other purpose.
We may share non-personally identifiable information collected via the program in aggregate, anonymous form with advertisers or other third parties so that they may better evaluate what products and services are most appealing to different segments of our member base. We do not disclose your first name, last name, address, email address, or any other personally identifiable information to these third parties unless you give your express consent.
We occasionally send the information we gather about our members to trusted third-party data processors to organize, process and/or analyze the data on our behalf. We use this information to enhance our program offerings, namely to tailor updates, and offers to your particular interests and to ensure that your opt-out requests are honored. All such third-party data processors are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services to CoolProducts.com. They are contractually bound to observe the strict policy stated herein, so you can rest assured that the confidentiality of your personally identifiable information will be maintained.
Data Verification and SupplementationData verification involves the use of third-party data processing services to standardize and clean your provided enrollment information so that it is easily identified and accessed in our database. Data supplementation involves appending any publicly available information about you to your personal profile. In order to provide you with the most rewarding experience, we might send your information to data processors so that they can clean your address and standardize to ensure it is most accurate and up-to-date. Next, we might seek out any information about you that is publicly available on the open market and overlay this data onto ours for comparison purposes. Information collected in this manner could include your spending habits from a mail-order catalogue, demographic information you provided in entering a sweepstakes, or your financial history. All of this results in a program that is tailored to your personal interests and provides you with the most relevant rewards opportunities.
We use this information solely for the purpose of enhancing the offerings of the CoolProdcuts.com Program, namely to tailor updates, rewards and spending offers to your particular interests. All such third-party data processors are contractually bound to observe the strict policy stated herein, so you can rest assured that the confidentiality of your personal information will be maintained.

Many of our CoolProducts.com advertisers, affiliates and merchants also utilize third-party cookies to identify you as a CoolProducts.com member. This enables them to report your purchases back to CoolProducts.com so we are able to credit your account with rewards. We and our advertisers currently use third-party cookies and clear pixel GIFs (also referred to as "web beacons") to measure page views on both CoolProducts.com and advertisers' web sites and email responses. These devices allow us to identify unique visitors to CoolProducts.com, member visits to advertisers' sites, and act as a counter for ongoing monitoring of site, email and corresponding future transaction activity related to a specific offer for both CoolProducts.com and its advertisers. These commonly used counters collect absolutely no personal information and, as always, this technology is only used to enhance the program and make it more relevant to your personal interests.

We may use contractors or vendors to help us provide some of the services at our site. If we disclose personal information for them to provide the services, it is with the requirement that the information is kept confidential and used only for those services. All contractors and employees are required to familiarize themselves with, and abide by, these safeguards. We also guarantee never to sell your data to 3rd parties of any kind.

Any individual 18 years or older and residing in the U.S and Canada may enroll in CoolProducts.com and become a member of our Rewards Program. Employees of HOAEC are not eligible to participate. Corporations or other business entities are not eligible to become Members. Membership and right to use is limited to one individual per account. CoolProducts.com allows only one email address per Member.
Registered community members are invited to research and post gift ideas for commissions. We hope to emphasize that the commission program is our best effort to be fair to the community and enhance the member’s experience. We never want a community member to feel that they are being taken advantage of in any way. Once you are logged in, ideas can be posted in our Participate Section either as;
So, when a new product is found by a member, posted in the Cool Products Participate section, and approved by our community moderators - voting begins on the products "coolness" by the community. Community moderators have the task of policing suggested ideas to make sure they are appropriate. If approved by the moderator, the community begins voting on the new "appropriate" suggested product idea and when it achieves 66% member approval (20 out of 30 votes) the product is certified "cool" and becomes available in our homepage Shop section.
At this point we begin endeavoring to form a commissionable relationship with the product's merchant. If the merchant already has products on CoolProducts.com, this should be a simple task. Each member's suggested product that is community approved and published on CoolProducts.com begins accruing incremental commissions on each sale toward a maximum of $10 per product once the commissionable relationship is established. No commissions can be earned if the vendor representing the recommended product does not enter into a commissionable relationship with CoolProducts.com. If the merchant does not have a commission program:
Community members will receive 5% of "our" commission on each sale up to a $10 total. As an example: if we receive a 10% commission on the sale, member receives 5% of that 10% & each of those small portions accrue until members account hits $10. Except for high ticket items it will likely take 40+ sales to get to $10.
If a product is discontinued by a commissionable merchant and cannot be found elsewhere as a commissionable product, by CoolProducts.com, member will receive the commissions accrued, even if they are less than $10. Commissions are not accrued until the merchant has transferred payment of the commission to CoolProducts.com for the individual sale. If a consumer returns the commissioned product to the merchant within the merchant"s allowable return guidelines, the sale will be reversed and the commission will be deducted from CoolProducts.com and the registered community member’s account if it was previously posted.
Commissions will be deposited in the member's account in as little as a few seconds to as much as 3 months after the commission is earned depending on the merchant program product feed.
After they become a Registered Community Member in the Sign Up section of the site, CoolProducts.com members can view their current accounts online. The Community section of the site is restricted to members only and members must enter user name and password to view their suggested products and commission accrual.
CoolProducts.com members can redeem commissions as cash anytime after they have accumulated $10 per product. This section of the site is restricted to members only and members must be logged in with their official user name and password to redeem commissions. At present, members have a choice of redeeming commissions in one of the following ways:
Members will be asked to pick one (and only one) redemption method each time they redeem commissions.
For gift finding panel members who select the cash or gift card option, a check or card will be delivered through the U.S. mail to the address CoolProducts.com has on file for the member. Members are responsible for making sure mailing address is correct (an opportunity is provided to confirm address at the time of reward redemption). Furthermore, CoolProducts.com will mail checks or cards only to legal addresses located with the United States or Canada. The member should allow up to 4 weeks for receipt. The check will be made out to the individual who joined the CoolProducts.com panel on behalf of the household. Checks that are returned to CoolProducts.com as undeliverable will be voided and the commission value will be credited back to the members account as long as the membership is still in active status (e.g. member has not unsubscribed).
To deliver rewards it will be your responsibility to update your profiles: User Name, Name, Street Address, City, State, Zip, Phone, E-Mail, Age & Gender. We require age because applicants younger than 18 years of age are not allowed to participate in our panel or receive commissions.
Community Members who terminate membership will forfeit all commissions in their Rewards Program account. Those who wish to terminate community membership and have commissions in their account may choose to redeem any available commissions provided they have sufficient commission for reward redemption. Cash redemptions start at $10 in accrued commission per product. Any commission redemption must be done prior to officially unsubscribing. Those who have earned commissions in their account at termination forfeit all commissions.
CoolProducts.com reserves the right to terminate or modify the Rewards Program at its discretion at any time. Modifications may include (but are not limited to) additions or deletions to the list of ways commissions or rewards may be earned or modifications to commission values for existing methods of earning commissions moving forward. CoolProducts.com will alert its membership via email about any changes on or before the effective date. Such changes will also be posted on the relevant pages of the CoolProducts.com website on or before the date of implementation. Member understands the most recent version of this Agreement will be located on the Community portion of the CoolProducts.com Web site.
