When you decide to set up affiliate program you should set up an account with us. Many programs dont realize that you have to give docs and IDs when you give out content to affiliates. Failure to give the docs and IDs is a violation of 2257 since secondary producers (affiliates) now have to keep records as well. So it is not only a violation for the affiliate not to have records, its a violation by the program to distribute content without transfering the records.

If you like, you can get around this with hosted galleries and videos that stay on your servers. Or, you can act as a third party record keeper for all your affiliates but it cannot be a simple link back. There actually has to be a contract between you and the affiliate wherein you take responsibility to maintain their records for your program.

If those options are not sufficent what we can do, if you do not want the affiliates to have the docs and IDs, is to set up an account that will remained locked down with your affiliate content in it. hen you can require your affiliates to have an account with us. It will cost them $19.99 a month, and you will receive a 50% rev share on those accts for the life of the affiliate.

The affiliates will not have access to the docs and IDs, UNLESS, they are inspected. Which at that time we will handle the inspection and open the account and provide the DOJ/FBI with the necessary records. No hassles for you or the affiliate and everyone's info stays private - all while generating a monthly rev share profit for your program.

The affiliate can use our address and name for their 2257 Notice as well.
