Anti-Spam Policy

Governments in many countries have introduced substantial penalties for sending unsolicited emails. Penalties include civil and/or criminal proceedings taken against violators of recently introduced legislation.

The Spam refers to "unsolicited commercial electronic messaging". The Legislation says that messages should only be sent to an address when it is known that the person responsible for that address has consented to receive it.

Businesses need to comply with the provisions of the Anti-Spam Legislation when sending commercial electronic messages. To ensure that you are compliant with the Anti-Spam Legislation, you should consider the following three steps:

• Consent - Only send commercial electronic messages with the recipients' consent.
• Identify - Include clear and accurate information about the person or business that is responsible for sending the commercial electronic message.
• Unsubscribe - Ensure that a functional unsubscribe facility is included in all your commercial electronic messages. Deal with unsubscribe requests promptly - We have done this for you..
