SUBJECT MATTER OF THE AGREEMENT, PACKAGE OF FEATURES, AND ADDITIONAL SERVICES(1) USI-TECH is a software company that develops high-end software-based products for use in the financial, money, and currency market and further operates blockchain-based server farms for mining established and recognized tradeable information units (Bitcoins). Within this business model, USI-TECH provides its customers with server capacity within a temporally flexible usage license for a fee. USI-TECH further provides high-quality software products for the above purposes for a fee (these products and services, which are described in detail in the following, are referred to as products for reasons of simplicity). Express reference is made to the fact that USI-TECH does not directly or indirectly sell or otherwise distribute or act as a broker and/or broker dealer for any cryptocoins, commodities, bonds, stocks, stock indicies, on behalf of itself or via third parties.

The Sales Partner shall receive a corresponding commission for his role as a Sales Partner. There is no obligation for the Sales Partner to effect financial expenditure, purchase a minimum amount of products from USI-TECH, or for the Sales Partner to acquire further Sales Partners for this activity. The only obligation is the free-of-charge registration. Additionally, there is a further opportunity, with no obligation, to acquire further Sales Partners to sell the USI-TECH products and to receive a commission on the products sold by the acquired Sales Partner. The Sales Partner will expressly not receive any commission for the mere acquisition of a new Sales Partner. The commission and the manner in which any monies are paid out or the claim to commission is otherwise satisfied will be based on the remuneration plan valid at the specific point in time. (3) USI-TECH shall provide to Sales Partner an Online Back Office (Back Office) at no charge that enables the Sales Partner to have an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of his revenues, commissions, and downline developments. Additionally, and without there being an obligation to do so, the Sales Partner may acquire different marketing systems such as a personalized Internet presence by way of a separate agreement. The Sales Partner can find information about content and pricing of the individual and personalized Internet presence in his Back Office.

GENERAL PRECONDITIONS FOR CONCLUDING AGREEMENTS(1) Agreements may be entered into with legal entities, partnerships, or natural persons who or whose representatives are 18 or over and entrepreneurs as defined under applicable law. Agreements may not be entered into with consumers.

All parties within the legal entity or partnership must be 18 or older and will be personally liable to USI-TECH for the conduct of the legal entity.

With the exception of the contractual obligations, the Sales Partner is not bound by any instructions from USI-TECH and carries the full commercial risk of his commercial activity including the obligation to bear all of his commercial costs and the obligation to properly pay his employees if he employs staff. The Sales Partner must organize and operate his business in line with the principles of a prudent businessman, which also includes operating his own office premises or a place of work managed in accordance with the principals of a prudent businessman. (3) As an independent contractor, the Sales Partner is responsible for complying with the relevant statutory provisions including stipulations under tax and social-security law (e.g. obtaining a VAT ID or registering his employees with the relevant social-security authority as well as obtaining a commercial license if required). To that extent, the Sales Partner warrants that he will pay tax on all commission income and revenue from the exploitation of the products offered generated in the course of his role for USI-TECH in the proper manner at the place at which his business is registered. USI-TECH reserves the right to deduct the respective amount for taxes and contributions from the agreed commission or to demand compensation or reimbursement of expenses incurred by it as a result of a breach of the foregoing stipulations unless the Sales Partner was not at fault for the loss or expenditure.

The period will start to run with the online transmission of the application to become a Sales Partner. The revocation period will be deemed complied with if the cancellation or the starter set was dispatched in good time (date of postmark/ e-mail).

Consequences of revocation: In the event of a valid revocation of the contractual declaration, the services received by both sides must be returned and any utilized services surrendered. In particular, Sales Partners are required to repay to USI-TECH any commission received in the event of an effective revocation. In this case, USI-TECH has the right to set off in full or in part any claims to commission acquired against the repayable license payments and/or the provision of the server capacities for the software. If a Sales Partner is unable to return to USI-TECH the services received in full or in part, or only in a deteriorated condition, the Sales Partner will be required to compensate USI-TECH for any loss. Any obligations to repay sums received must be completed within 30 days. The period starts to run for the Sales Partner on the dispatch of the Sales Partners declaration of revocation or the item, and for USI-TECH with its receipt. After exercising the Sales Partners right of revocation, he or she can re-register as a Sales Partner with our company. The prerequisite for this is that Sales Partners revocation was made at least six months previously and he or she performed no activity for USI-TECH during this period. End of the revocation policy (2) If within 30 days of his registration with USI-TECH the Sales Partner has not verifiably performed any sales activities as defined above or has otherwise taken advantage of chargeable services of USI-Tech, USI-Tech reserves the right to issue an extraordinary termination to the Sales Partner by e-mail and to delete him from the sales system.

Payment of the remuneration shall cover all of the Sales Partners costs for the maintenance and performance of his business unless otherwise contractually agreed. (2) USI-TECH reserves the right to request that the Sales Partner prove his identity and commercial registration (e.g. presentation of the trading license) before the first commission payment is made. At USI-TECHs discretion, the proof of identity will be provided in the form of a copy of the ID card or passport in connection with a current electricity, gas, water, or other utility bill (no older than one month) and must be provided within two weeks of being requested.

(4) Commission and fees for the supply of services by the Sales Partner may, if no different account was expressly accepted in writing by USI-TECH, only be paid into accounts held in his name or of a partnership or a legal entity that has a contractual relationship with USI-TECH. Payments may not be made to third-party accounts or to a foreign account in a country in which the Partner is registered. (5) USI-TECH is entitled to assert a right of retention in accordance with the statutory provisions. Similarly, USI-TECH is entitled to assert a right of retention in respect of the payment of commissions if not all documents required by law have been presented to USI-TECH prior to the first payment, e.g. the VAT ID for legal entities, if applied for and issued.

This agreement may not be encumbered with third-party rights, unless this is precluded by prevailing law. (8) The Sales Partner shall check the invoices issued promptly and notify USI-TECH of any objections without undue delay. All claims to commission arise under the applicable remuneration plan that the Sales Partner can access in his Back Office and that can also be viewed in the Back Office. USI-TECH must be notified of any incorrect commissions, bonuses other payments in writing within 60 days of the incorrect payment. After this point in time, the commissions, bonuses, or other payments will be deemed approved. (9) The commissions will be paid weekly at the express request of the Sales Partner taking into account the USI-TECH payment terms and payment types.

BLOCKING THE SALES PARTNER (1) If the Sales Partner does not provide all necessary proof within 14 days of registration and acknowledgment of the requirements for the payment of commissions, USI-TECH is entitled to block the Sales Partner temporarily until such time as the documents required by law have been provided. The above also applies in the event that the deadline as defined in clause 14 (2) lapses without avail or if the stipulations governed by clause 14 (3) are breached until the requisite act is rectified, and this also applies to a non-payment of the charges or license fees due from the Partner. The duration of a block does not entitle the Sales Partner to effect an ordinary termination and results in neither a repayment of the initial starting order already paid or a claim for damages unless the Sales Partner is not responsible for the block. (2) Commission claims that cannot paid for the stated reasons will be posted as a reserve within USI-TECH and will become time barred no later than on the expiry of the statutory time limit. (3) USI-TECH is entitled to claim compensation for the reminder costs for each case of reminder. (4) The blocking reasons set out in paragraph (1) notwithstanding, USI-TECH reserves the right to block a Sales Partner for good cause. In particular, USI-TECH reserves the right to block a Sales Partners access without notice if the Sales Partner breaches the obligations set out in clauses 7-9 and clause 10 (3) and (4), or violates other prevailing law, or other good cause is deemed given and the Sales Partner does not rectify the corresponding breach of duty within the period stated in clause 5 following a corresponding reminder from USI-TECH.

DURATION & TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT (1) The Sales Partner agreement is concluded for twelve months. The agreement will be extended for a further twelve months at a time if no termination is made subject to a termination period of three months to the end of the agreement. (2) The reason for termination in (1) notwithstanding, USI-TECH reserves the right to terminate the agreement for good cause. Good cause shall be deemed given in particular in the event of a breach of one of the obligations regulated in clause 7 if the Sales Partner does not meet his rectification obligation as set out in clause 11 (1) within the required time or the same or a comparable breach occurs subsequent to the breach of duty. USI-TECH is entitled to effect an extraordinary termination without a prior reminder in the event of a breach of the obligations governed by clause 8, 9 and 10 (3) and (4) as well as of a particularly severe of clause 7 or other applicable contractual or statutory law. Similarly, grounds for an extraordinary termination shall be deemed given if the Sales Partner does not observe the provisions of clause 14 (2) and (3), and also following a block as set out in clause 15 (1) where no rectification has taken place at the point at which a final grace period expires. Further, both parties shall have grounds for an extraordinary termination if insolvency proceedings are instituted against the other party or the instituting of such proceedings is rejected due to lack of assets or the other party is otherwise illiquid or has given an affidavit regarding its illiquidity in the course of compulsory enforcement proceedings. The right to affect an extraordinary termination is without prejudice to any additional claims. (3) Domains that contain the mark USI-TECH, a trademark, a commercial description or a work title of USI-TECH may no longer be used after the termination of the agreement and must be surrendered to USI-TECH following a corresponding request against payment of the costs of the transfer of the domain. The foregoing also applies to trademarks, commercial descriptions, or work titles to which USI-TECH holds an exclusive usage right. (4) After an ordinary termination of his old position, a Sales Partner may re-register with USI-TECH via another sponsor. The precondition for doing so is that the ordinary termination and USI-TECHs confirmation of the termination for the Sales Partners position was made at least six months previously and the Sales Partner who terminated the relationship has not performed any activities for USI-TECH in this period. (5) On termination of the agreement, the Sales Partner has no entitlement to a payment of commission, and in particular no entitlement to a claim for adjustment as a commercial agent as the Sales Partner is not a commercial agent as defined by the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch). (6) If at the same time a Sales Partner claims other services from USI-TECH that are independent of the Sales Partner agreement, these services shall remain in force irrespective of the termination of the Sales Partner agreement unless the Sales Partner also expressly demands the termination of these services as part of the termination process and such a termination is permissible. If the Sales Partner continues to receive services from USI-TECH following the termination of the agreement, he will be managed as a normal customer. (7) All terminations must be made in writing.

DISCLAIMER (1) USI-TECH shall only be liable for losses incurred as a result of willful misconduct or grossly negligent acts, or the culpable breach of a material contractual duty (e.g. payment of commission), by USI-TECH, its employees, or vicarious agents. This also applies to losses arising from the breach of duties in contractual negotiations and the performance of unauthorized acts. Any further liability for compensation shall be excluded. (2) Except for cases of death, personal injury, and harm to health or willful misconduct or grossly negligent acts by USI-TECH, its employees, or vicarious agents, liability shall be limited to the type of loss foreseeable on conclusion of the agreement and otherwise to the level of the average loss for the type of contract. This also applies to indirect loss, in particular loss of profits. (3) USI-TECH shall not be liable for any losses of any kind arising as a result of data losses on the servers, except in the event of grossly negligent or willful culpability on the part of USI-TECH, its employees, or vicarious agents. Stored content belonging to the Sales Partners represents third-party information for USI-TECH.

TRANSFER OF THE BUSINESS OPERATIONS / SPONSORED STRUCTURE TO THIRD PARTIES / DEATH OF THE SALES PARTNER (1) USI-TECH may transfer its contractual position in full or in part to a successor company at any time. This company will perpetuate the business that is the subject matter of this agreement in the same manner and assume the existing rights and duties in full. (2) The Sales Partner is entitled to transfer his sales structure subject to prior written consent from USI-TECH and the presentation of a sales and/or transfer agreement with the third party, as well as presentation of the third partys Sales Partner application to USI-TECH, unless USI-TECH makes use of its existing right of pre-emption in advance. The sales structure may only be transferred to persons who are not Sales Partners of USI-TECH at the point of the transfer. Conversely, Sales Partners of USI-TECH may not transfer or purchase a sales structure. The consent may only be withheld by USI-TECH if it makes use of its right of pre-emption, and otherwise only for good cause. The Sales Partner undertakes to notify USI-TECH of the intended transfer of its sales structure in writing. On receipt of the written notices, USI-TECH has one month to make use of its right of pre-emption. If this does not happen, the transfer is permitted unless it is precluded on other cogent grounds. A sale is only possible if the contractual relationship has not been terminated. In the event of termination without notice or a breach of these General Terms and Conditions for Sales Partners and Deliveries, the Sales Partners right to sell his own sales organization shall lapse, as will be the case if the selling Sales Partner still owes USI-TECH money. (3) If a legal entity or partnership is registered as a Sales Partner, the sales structure may only be transferred subject to the further prerequisites of this agreement. (4) If a legal entity or partnership that is newly registered as a Sales Partner wants to take on a new shareholder, this is possible if the previous shareholder(s) that applied for the Sales Partnership also remain (a) shareholder(s). If a shareholder is seeking to exit a legal entity or partnership registered as a Sales Partner or to transfer his shares to a third party, this act is permissible following a corresponding written request and presentation of the corresponding notarized document and in accordance with the provisions of this agreement in compliance with the stipulation in (2) of the General Terms and Conditions for Sales Partners. USI-TECH charges an administration fee of 25.00 for processing the foregoing application. If this stipulation is not complied with, USI-TECH reserves the right to terminate the agreement with the legal entity or partnership registered as a Sales Partner. (5) The Sales Partner agreement will come to an end no later than on the death of the Sales Partner. The Sales Partner agreement may be bequeathed subject to compliance with the statutory requirements. Within six months of the death, a new Sales Partner agreement must be entered into with the heir via which he/she enters into the rights and duties of the testator. If the heir or one of the heirs as a natural person is already registered as a Sales Partner with USI-TECH, the heir must relinquish his previous position in the sales structure of USI-TECH or, if the prerequisites of clause 18 (2) apply, he must transfer one of the two future sales structures in accordance with clause 18 (2) to a third party given that only one position in the marketing plan may be assigned to each natural person. Proof of the death must be provided in the form of a death certificate. If a will exists relating to the bequest of the Sales Partner agreement, a notarially certified copy of the will must be provided. If the six-month deadline expires unused, all rights and duties under the agreement will pass to USI-TECH. In exceptional cases the six-month period may be extended by an appropriate period if it is disproportionately short for the heir in an individual case.

SEPARATION / DISSOLUTIONIn the event that a Sales Partner registered as legal entity or partnership winds up his company internally, it is still the case following the separation, dissolution, or other determination of the foregoing company that only one Sales Partner position remains. The departing members/shareholders need to come to an agreement among themselves as to which member(s)/shareholder(s) will perpetuate the Sales Partnership and to notify USI-TECH accordingly in writing. In the event of an internal dispute on the consequences of the separation, divorce, dissolution, or other determination relating to the Sales Partnership at USI-TECH, USI-TECH reserves the right to effect an extraordinary termination if such dispute has resulted in the Sales Partners duties being neglected, or in a breach of these General Terms and Conditions for Sales Partners, a breach of prevailing law, or a disproportionate detriment to the downline or upline.

INCLUSION OF THE REMUNERATION PLAN (1) The remuneration plan and the associated stipulations are an express component of the Sales Partner agreement. The Sales Partner must comply with the provisions of the latest applicable version at all times. (2) On submission of the online application to USI-TECH, the Sales Partner warrants at the same time that it has acknowledged the remuneration plan and accepted these documents as a component of the agreement. (3) USI-TECH is entitled to amend the remuneration plan at any time. USI-TECH will announce any amendments subject to a reasonable deadline. The Sales Partner is entitled to object to the amendment if he does not expressly accept the amendment. In the event of an objection, the Sales Partner is entitled to terminate the agreement at the point at which the amendment takes effect. If he does not effect an ordinary termination of the agreement within four weeks of the amendment taking effect, the Sales Partner accepts the amendment.

USE OF PHOTOGRAPHIC & AUDIOVISUAL MATERIALThe Sales Partner grants to USI-TECH the right at no charge to record or implement photographic and/or audiovisual material with his likeness, voice recordings, or statements and quotes from him in the course of his role as a Sales Partner. To this extent, the Sales Partner expressly consents to the publication, use, reproduction and alteration of his quotes, images or recordings by signing the Sales Partner application and acknowledging these General Terms and Conditions for Sales Partners and Deliveries. The Sales Partner has the right to revoke the foregoing consent. In the event of a revocation, USI-TECH will cease the above usage within a month.

DATA PROTECTION (1) The following data protection declaration takes precedence over other data protection declarations of USI-TECH. These can be viewed and retrieved in the Back Office (Web Office) of USI-TECH and merely have a supplementary function. (2) USI-TECH will use the personal data (e.g. salutation, name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number, bank details) submitted by the Sales Partner in accordance with the stipulations of German data protection provisions for the purposes of invoicing and performing the agreement. To that extent, USI-TECH shall only store and process data provided by the Partner when completing the application form and in particular will not create any user-behavior profiles. (3) For the purposes of performing the agreement, e.g. invoicing, entering into a lease or paying commission, product and marketing information, the Sales Partners personal data will be forwarded to third parties, such as the accounts team or the payment service provider responsible for making payments, to the extent that this is required for performing the aforementioned contractual duties. (4) The Sales Partner may object to the forwarding of his data at any time with future effect by e-mailing [email protected]. (5) Beyond the foregoing purpose, none of the Sales Partners personal data submitted to USI-TECH will be passed to third parties without his separate written consent unless this takes place as a result of a statutory or official order. (6) After the termination and performance of the agreement, which also includes the complete payment of the agreed feed, the Partners data will be deleted, with the exception of the data for which consent for further usage was provided, unless a statutory duty of retention applies. (7) If the Partner requires further information on the storage of his personal data or wants his personal data to be deleted, blocked or amended, the USI-TECH data protection officer can assist directly.

LIMITATIONThe claims under this agreement shall become time-barred six months following the point at which the claim in question falls due and the person entitled to the claim acknowledges the circumstances that give rise to his claim or is his lack of awareness of these circumstances is due to gross negligence. This is without prejudice to any statutory provisions that provide for a longer limitation period.

GOVERNING LAW / DIFFERENT JURISDICTION (1) The governing law shall be that of the registered office of USI-TECH with the exclusion of UN sales law. This is without prejudice to any mandatory provisions of the state in which the Sales Partner has his normal place of residence. (2) The legal forum and place of performance is the place in which USI-TECH has its registered office, unless this is precluded by prevailing law.

CLOSING PROVISIONS (1) USI-TECH is entitled to amend the General Terms and Conditions for Sales Partners at any time. USI-TECH will announce any amendments subject to a reasonable deadline. USI-TECH will announce any amendments subject to a reasonable deadline. The Sales Partner has the right to object to the amendments. In the event of an objection, the Sales Partner is entitled to terminate the agreement at the point at which the amendment takes effect. If he does not effect an ordinary termination of the agreement within four weeks of the amendment taking effect, the Sales Partner accepts the amendment. (2) In other respects amendments or addenda to these General Terms and Conditions for Sales Partners must be provided in writing. The same applies to the revocation of the requirement for the written form. (3) If a clause of these general terms of use is invalid or incomplete, this shall not render the entire Agreement void. Instead, the invalid clause shall be replaced by a valid one that most closely resembles the invalid clause in economic terms. The same shall apply to the rectification of an omission that requires regulation. Latest revision to the General Terms and Conditions for Sales Partners: August 17, 2017

USI-TECH Privacy Policy

Introduction: USI-TECH (USI) has a strong commitment to providing excellent service to all of our affiliates and customers, including respecting their concerns about privacy. We understand that visitors to our website may have questions about how this website collects and uses information. We have prepared this statement to inform you of the privacy principles that govern USI-TECH.

This statement contains numerous general and technical details about the steps we take to respect your privacy concerns. The bottom line is that meeting your needs and expectations form the foundation of everything we do – including protecting your privacy.

Browsing: This website does not collect personally identifiable information from your computer when you browse the site. This means that, unless you voluntarily and knowingly provide us with personally identifiable information, we will not know your name, your e-mail address, or any other personally identifiable information.

Internet Protocol (IP) Address: An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you browse the Internet. When users request a page from our site, our servers log the user’s current IP address. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems. We do not link IP addresses to any personally identifiable information about you.

Cookies: Our website uses cookie technology. Cookies are strings of text that a website may store on a user’s computer. Our website uses cookies but only requires them in the online reservation process. Cookies enable our website to keep track of your preferences and activities relating to the website. Our website creates session cookies for each visit in order to facilitate your visit. The session cookie expires at the end of the session.

Use of Cookies and E-Mails – We use a third party service provider to send marketing e-mails on behalf of USI. There are no cookies in the e-mail. However, when an e-mail recipient clicks on a link to The USI website included in the e-mail, a persistent cookie is placed on the user’s computer. This cookie is used to measure the effectiveness of our e-mail marketing efforts and better understand how our users navigate through the site. The cookie set by our service provider will remain on your hard drive 30 days after the last time you clicked on the coded link in the e-mail, or until you delete it.

Use of Cookies for Advertising – We use third party service providers to serve and host our advertisements. These third parties use persistent cookies to track the number of times our site is accessed and whether the site was accessed from the advertisement. The cookies generated from the advertisements do not contain personally identifiable information and may remain on your hard drive three or more years unless deleted by you.

The third party service providers mentioned above are contractually bound not to use any information they gather for any purpose other than providing services to us. Cookies do not corrupt or damage your computer or computer files. In addition, we do not use cookies to gather information concerning your visits to non-USI websites. If you do not wish to receive these cookies, you may set your browser to reject the cookies (consult the instructions for your particular browser on how to do this), although doing so may affect your ability to perform certain transactions on our website.

Pixel Tags: The third party service providers mentioned above serve and host USI advertisements on other sites. To track the effectiveness of USI advertisements on other sites, USI-TECH uses pixel tags (also known as clear gifs, beacon gifs, 1-by-1 gifs, or web bugs). Pixel tags are not visible to the user of the site and consist of a few lines of computer coding. If you are visiting USI-TECH from an advertisement on another site, the pixel tag references the cookie you received when you clicked on the advertisement. The pixel tag then registers this activity with the third party advertising company to allow us to count the number of times an advertisement is accessed. In addition, we also measure the reservations generated from a particular ad. At no time is personally identifiable information about you or your reservation collected by the third party advertising company, nor is any tracking information generated from the pixel tag allowed to be used by them for any other purpose other than to report website activity to us or allow us to better target future interactive advertising.

Our third party service providers may use pixel tags in USI marketing e-mails that help us send the e-mail in a format you can read, to allow us to know which e-mails you act upon and to better target the content of future e-mails. In addition, we track the aggregate number of e-mails read and whether any of the links in the e-mail were accessed. No other information is collected or used from pixel tags.

Information We Collect: When we need to collect personally identifiable information from you, we will ask you to voluntarily supply us with the information we need. For example, if you would like to create a USI account or receive information regarding upcoming USI technological advances, we will ask you for information such as name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and quite possibly credit card number. We will use your e-mail address to send a confirmation and, if necessary, might use the other information to contact you for help to process the reservation. The same types of information may would be requested to complete any other membership related activity. As indicated below (see E-Mail section), we may also use your e-mail address to notify you about special offers and promotions.

Securing the Transmission and Storage of Information: When we ask you for credit card data when making a reservation or purchasing a gift certificate, it is transferred over a Secured Sockets Layer (SSL) line provided you are using a SSL enabled browser such as Safari, Google Chrome, Microsoft Internet Explorer, or the like. We also use SSL on other select pages where you would enter personally identifiable information. This ensures that your information is encrypted as it travels over the Internet. This secure mode is enabled before any such information is transmitted from your computer. You will know you are in secure mode when the padlock or key icon in the lower right-hand or left-hand corner of the computer screen appears in the locked position. In addition, when accessing a secure server, the first characters of the site address will change from http to https. After information reaches USI it is stored on a secure server that resides behind firewalls designed to block unauthorized access from outside the Company.

E-Mail: It is our intention to only send you e-mail communications that will be useful to you and that you want to receive. When you make a reservation and provide your e-mail address, we will occasionally contact you via e-mail and provide information about special offers and promotions that may be of interest to you. These communications will relate to USI offers and/or the promotions of select, reputable third parties with whom USI has a strategic marketing relationship because they offer products or services that we believe would of interest to you. We use a third party e-mail service provider to send e-mails. This service provider is prohibited from using your e-mail address for any purpose other than to send USI related e-mail. Every time you receive e-mail you will be provided the choice to opt-out of future e-mails by following the instructions provided in the e-mail, or you may opt-out by updating your online profile.

USI Use of Information: We treat the information you provide to us as confidential information; it is, accordingly, subject to our company’s security procedures and strict corporate policies regarding protection and use of confidential information. Because laws applicable to personal information vary by country, our business operations may put in place additional measures that vary depending on the applicable legal requirements. Information collected on the sites covered by this privacy statement, which are listed in the first paragraph, is generally processed and stored in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The personally identifiable information you provide to us for making a reservation is made available to the applicable hotel for the purpose of meeting your reservation request. If you cancel your account, the information is stored for recordkeeping purposes only and is not accessed again. After creating your account, unless you specifically tell us otherwise, the information you provide may be used by us for direct marketing of USI, the products of affiliates or select, reputable third parties with whom USI has a strategic marketing relationship because they offer products or services that we believe would of interest to you. USI may use the services of a third party mail house for the sole purpose of mailing materials.

Disclosure of Information to Third Parties: USI prohibits the sale or transfer of personal information to unaffiliated third parties outside of USI for their use without your approval.

Links to Other Sites: If you choose to leave this USI site via links to other non-USI websites, including those of advertisers, USI is not responsible for the privacy policies or content of those sites, nor is USI responsible for the cookies those sites use.

Legal Issues: This is an internationally based website and is subject to the law of the UAE. USI will disclose personally identifiable information without your permission when required by law, or in good faith belief that such action is necessary to investigate or protect against harmful activities to USI guests, visitors, associates, or property (including this site), or to others when entities performing business activities on USI’s behalf necessitate such information (e.g., credit card processing or customer support services) or in the event that USI is merged, acquired by or acquires another company. As mentioned above, laws related to personal identifiable information vary by country. For example, personally identifiable information collected in the United Arab Emirates is subject to the UAE Data Protection Directive.

Privacy Policy Effective Date: The privacy policy is in effect at the time of each visit to our site. Please check our privacy policy each time you visit our website if you are concerned about how your information will be used.

USI-TECH Privacy Statement Changes: In the future, we may need to change the privacy statement for USI-TECH. All changes will be made here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information and whether we will disclose it to anyone.
