I have recently been putting together a story board / tree of "who is partners with who" to use in decisions regarding how many times I want to step on my own toes.

I noticed in the forum threads that DP was listed as an OptIn/OptOut site.
When I signed up, I most likely opted out until I had a better understanding of the program. Now I beginning to make adjustments and I can not find the option ANYWHERE on DP's site.
I already wrote support, but their answer was not at all related to what I asked.
I asked:
Hello,
I am of the understanding you can freely opt-in or opt-out on the partner program, but a) I do not remember what I initially signed up for and b) I can not find this option anywhere on my contributor dashboard to clarify or change.
Help! 
Thank you,They answered:
Hello,
The Partner program has been disabled for your account. It was activated by default.
Should you have any further questions or require any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards,I have since responded back for clarification, but no response.
I feel like such and idiot here - am I missing something in the reply?
