and media where you have no reasonable basis for believing that all or
most of the readers or recipients are your personal friends (such as
coupon websites, Reddit, Wikipedia).

us to them, inviting them to visit MoneyFiver.com. You are required to obtain consents from your Referrals prior to referring them.
