Parties to whom this Policy Strictly
Applies:
This SPAM POLICY strictly applies
to any and all of our Affiliates, employees, servants,
or agents, all of whom agree to abide by this Policy
as it has been incorporated as an integral and inseparable
part of the Affiliate Agreement or other applicable agreement
or contract for CORPORATION establishing the legal relationship
between you and us.
If
you in any way act for or in conjunction with CORPORATION,
as a condition of the establishment
of the legal relationship giving you authority to act
in such conjunction, you should have been required to
be a signatory to an Agreement governing this legal relationship
that incorporates the CORPORATION’S current SPAM
POLICY as an inseparable part of that Agreement.
If you have not signed such an Agreement,
you are hereby notified that any relationship that you
may have with CORPORATION or any of its subsidiaries
or other businesses is hereby terminated and any acts
you may be performing or considering the performance
of are hereby prohibited until you have entered into
a valid agreement with CORPORATION governing your specific
status as an agent or Affiliate of the CORPORATION, and
the establishment and finalization of that Agreement
is acknowledged by us.
Regardless of your relationship
to CORPORATION, you are hereby notified that any conduct
on behalf of, benefiting, initiated by, or in any way
connected to CORPORATION or any of its subsidiaries or
other businesses is strictly controlled by this Policy.
Any violation thereof is grounds for immediate termination
of whatever relationship you may have with CORPORATION
and other punitive and corrective actions that will be
described in detail below. You are further notified that
any further actions taken by you on behalf of CORPORATION
shall constitute evidence of your assent to the terms
of this SPAM POLICY.
II. Purpose of this Policy:
This
Spam Policy was adopted pursuant to, and is intended
to establish our full compliance
with, the “Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited
Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003,” or the “CAN-SPAM
Act of 2003,” (hereinafter “the Act” or “the
CAN-SPAM Act”), and/or any updates, regulations,
or revisions to this legislation. This Policy’s
intent is to recognize the limitations set forth in the
Act as the minimum measures that must be taken to comply
with the Act, and you are specifically placed on notice
that there may be procedures and practices that are legal
under the Act, which are nevertheless prohibited by this
Policy. By prohibiting conduct that may be legally permissible,
we are demonstrating our firm commitment to the eradication
of unwelcome Spam and over-compliance with any governmental
initiatives enacted in furtherance of this goal.
We
respect the right of consumers to control the flow of
unsolicited email into their computer
inboxes. We therefore strictly enforce a “No Illegal
Spam” Policy. Any of our Affiliates, promoters,
employees, contractors, or agents caught violating this
Policy will be immediately terminated and will, forfeit
all unpaid commissions, and may be reported to law enforcement
authorities. Our strong preference is to avoid any promotion
that relies upon unsolicited email in any form. All promotions
should instead utilize verifiable, opt-in recipients
and address lists. However, all email promotions are
required to comply with the specifics set forth herein.
III. Types of Commercial Messages
Covered by This Policy
Any form of bulk electronic message
transmission, whether through email or other technological
means, are considered Spam, and therefore covered by
this Policy. This includes newsgroup postings, chat room
messages, and other similar message delivery systems.
IV. Unsolicited Email Policy
The following requirements apply
to the transmission of unsolicited email promoting, mentioning,
or relating to this Site:
Sources of Names for Email Lists:
1.
If you generate your email lists in-house, your lists
must be created using a “double
opt-in procedure.” This procedure requires the
following steps:
a. Each email address on the list
may be added only if the user submits a request to be
added to your list.
b. The user is then not immediately added to the list, but rather a confirmation
email must be sent to the user.
c. If the user does not respond to the confirmation email, the address may
not be added to your list.
d. If the user does respond to the confirmation affirming that the user wishes
for his or her email address to be added to your list, then (and only then)
you may add this email address to your in-house generated list.
e. All users must have specifically requested or consented to receiving sexually-explicit
material.
f. You must maintain records to verify that all list subscribers have been
added pursuant to the above requirements.
2. If your list is not generated
in-house, you may only use third-party lists that are
generated by following the same double opt-in procedure
outlined above. All third-party list generation techniques
must be fully verifiable. Third-party lists must have
a verifiable opt-out (removal) procedure.
No
third-party lists may be used unless all of the list
provider’s following information
is provided to us at least 72 hours before any proposed
mass email drop:
a.
List producer’s name
b. List producer’s address
c. List producer’s phone
d. List producer’s email address
e. All sources from which the list was compiled (websites, surveys, etc.)
f. All subjects the list members consented to receive emails about
g. List producer’s master email removal list
h. The size of the list
i. A list of those persons or entities specifically authorized to contact the
addresses on the list
j. All list members’ information or interest target categories (must
include a specific request for adult/pornographic content)
3. Harvested email addresses are
prohibited:
Any
lists, whether generated in-house or by a third party
must be void of any “harvested” email
addresses or “role” accounts. Harvested email
addresses are gathered from public sources such as chat
rooms, ICQ, classified ad boards, blogs, Internet postings,
dictionary attacks, random generation, or any other means
other than specific opt-in procedures.
Role
accounts are email addresses such as “webmaster@domain.com,” “support@domain.com,” “help@domain.com.” The
foregoing list is non-exclusive.
4. High Risk Top-level domain blocking
requirement: Your email lists must suppress any email
address with a top-level domain of .mil, .gov, .edu.
Mass Email Drop Specific Requirements
3. Pre-Approval Required: Any mass
email campaign sent out on behalf of, mentioning, or
in any way connected to us must be PRE-APPROVED by us.
In order to ensure adequate approval time, you must submit
the text of any proposed email at least 7 days prior
to any anticipated mail drop. Any unapproved emails,
even if they fully comply with all other aspects of this
Policy, will be grounds for immediate termination and
forfeit of any fees or other funds owed. Prior to any
email being sent, you must supply us with:
a. The text of the proposed email
b. The proposed subject line
c. The valid address from where the email will be sent
d. The valid reply-to address
e. The individual sender’s name
f. The individual sender’s valid physical or postal address
g. The individual sender’s valid phone number
h. The proposed date of the drop
i. The entire list to which you propose to send the email for comparison with
our master opt-out list. We will supply you with a sanitized list for your
mailing.
j. If you do not receive explicit approval for the email drop, you must presume
that permission to send it has been REJECTED.
4. Specific Requirements of all
Emails
a. The header must contain no false
or misleading transmission information, and must not
contain any IP Address, domain name or email address
that was obtained by means of false or fraudulent pretenses
or representations.
b. The header information must clearly state if another computer is used to
relay or retransmit the message, thus disguising its origin.
c. The message must not contain deceptive subject lines that mislead the recipient
about any material fact regarding the contents or subject matter of the message.
d. The message must include a return address or comparable fully functional
mechanism to allow the recipient the opportunity to request not to receive
future commercial electronic mail messages from the sender at the address where
the electronic mail was received (hereinafter “opt out device”).
All such email addresses shall be collected into a list maintained by you,
hereinafter referred to as your “suppression list.”
e. The return email address in the opt out device must be capable of receiving
such removal messages or communications for no less than thirty (30) days after
the transmission of the original message. No additional commercial electronic
mail messages may be sent to an individual who has indicated his or her desire
not to receive such messages from the sender. This prohibition also applies
to any person acting on behalf of the sender.
f. All mass emails must contain a valid postal address for the sender of the
email. The postal address must reflect YOUR postal address, not ours, and not
that of any third-party.
g. Special Requirements for Sexually-oriented
Email: The following special requirements apply to unsolicited
electronic mail containing sexually-oriented material.
i. The subject line must contain the terms “SEXUALLY EXPLICIT” as
required by Rules adopted by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”)
in consultation with the Attorney General in April, 2004.
ii. Such messages may only initially contain, absent any further actions by
the recipient, the mandatory information for unsolicited emails listed in Section
IV and instructions how to access, or a mechanism designed to access (such
as a hyperlink) the sexually-oriented material. In other words, and for avoidance
of doubt, no sexually-oriented images, drawings or other depictions are permitted
to be contained within unsolicited adult-oriented Spam. Any affiliate, agent,
employee or promoter caught violating this provision will be immediately terminated
from the Site’s program, and all commissions then earned but unpaid shall
be forfeited.
iii. Such messages shall also contain such marks, notices or disclaimers required
by the FTC, in consultation with the Attorney General, as identified in any
rules or regulations promulgated and published in the Federal Register within
the time frame contained in the Act, i.e. one-hundred twenty (120) days from
January 1, 2004.
Additional Suppression or Opt-Out
Requirements:
5. You must have valid procedures
to remove any email addresses as requested, by any user,
or any person, at any time. You must maintain an active
suppression list at all times, and all emails must be
filtered through the suppression list.
6. Any email addresses transmitted to the opt out device must be collected
and added to your suppression list AND must be transmitted to us on a weekly
basis for addition to our master suppression list.
7. If you maintain multiple email lists, anyone who has requested that they
be added to your suppression list, or who opts-out of any email list, shall
be removed from any and all lists that you use or maintain.
8. You shall not sell, lease, exchange, or otherwise transfer or release the
electronic mail address of the recipient who has indicated such desire to stop
receiving such messages, other than messages transmitted for compliance with
the Act or other provision of law. You shall not direct, allow, or through
inaction permit any other party to violate this provision (or any other provision
of this Policy).
Prior Affirmative Consent
Please
note that Affiliate’s
obtaining of an ‘opt in’ request from the
recipients of bulk emails does not discharge compliance
with this SPAM POLICY’s requirements. Although
certain obligations may be discharged under CAN SPAM
in the event Affiliate receives prior affirmative consent
from the recipient, after conspicuous notice, to receive
bulk commercial email, it is our policy that Affiliates
must still comply with the obligations for unsolicited
commercial email under this Policy and CAN SPAM, unless
each recipient gave specific permission to receive bulk
commercial email from the CORPORATION. If such prior
affirmative consent was obtained, exceptions may be made
on a case by case basis, in writing, by the CORPORATION.
No waiver from the requirements in this SPAM POLICY shall
result from any such exceptions.
VIII. Indemnification
All affiliates, agents, employees
or other promoters using any form of electronic commercial
mail promotion agree to indemnify and hold this Site
harmless from any and all claims, charges, counts, debts,
suits or other allegations arising from violations of
the Act, or other applicable laws regulating transmission
of commercial email. The Site shall provide immediate
notice of any and all such claims, however the Site shall
select its own attorneys to defend such claims, at the
sole and exclusive expense of the affiliate, agent, employee
or promoter responsible for the alleged violation.
IX. Audits
You
agree to cooperate in periodic audits of any promotional
activity taken on behalf of
the CORPORATION, upon reasonable notice. In the event
we request it, you agree to make available to us, any
and all promotional materials and communications used
to market our Site, within the last 2 years. You further
agree to provide any information relating to such promotions,
including but not limited to email addresses, lists,
names, times & dates of transmission, ip addresses,
servers, mail systems, software devices, compliance methods,
and any other such information reasonable and necessary
to conduct an audit of promotional activities. Failure
to cooperate in such an audit shall constitute grounds
for termination of our relationship, for cause.
X. Incorporation by Reference
This Spam Policy is hereby incorporated
by reference into any Affiliate Agreement in place and
utilized by the Site. By continuing to avail oneself
of the benefits and obligations of affiliate promotion,
all Affiliates thereby acknowledge the applicability
and enforceability of these provisions as part of the
existing Affiliate Agreement. By continuing to perform
under the Affiliate Agreement, after receipt of notice
of this Spam Policy, Affiliate thereby manifests his
or her assent to these terms. All remaining terms contained
in the Affiliate Agreement, not inconsistent herewith,
shall remain in full force and effect.
