Anti-Spam Policy
Anti-Spam Policy
To send the same message indiscriminately to a large number of recipients, send unsolicited commercial email, generally not allow an option to unsubscribe, send junk or bulk mail, sending numerous amounts of short messaging service messages, or to send a singular message repeatedly to a singular individual or entity over the internet (hereinafter “Spam”) is absolutely prohibited by Venntive. Venntive, developer and provider of the Venntive system suite of email and mobile SMS marketing tools, along with Venntive partners and affiliates who make Venntive system available to their customers, support ONLY permission-based email and mobile marketing practices. In this regard, Venntive has implemented some of the strictest policies in the email industry and supporting procedures that:
Help prevent the Venntive system from being inappropriately used for the purpose of unsolicited email or short messaging service ("SMS") campaigns.
Require permission-based marketing.
Promptly respond to all factually supported complaints suggesting the Venntive system has been used as a vehicle to send unsolicited email or SMS messages.
Venntive itself periodically monitors import lists and outgoing emails and SMS messsages for suspiciously large intended or actual broadcasts that could possible be considered Spam. If any activity of Spam is detected by Venntive, such Spamming conduct is immediately halted by Venntive, and such Venntive user is subject to being permanently barred from ever using Venntive (or any of our Partners', affiliates' and/or internet service providers (hereinafter "ISPs")) systems.
In addition to wasting valuable resources and time, Spam is considered by Venntive intrusive, costly, irrelevant and offensive.  Spam is the opposite of permission-based emails - those that are anticipated, personal, relevant and often associated with a "pre-existing business or personal relationship."
Unsolicited Email or Spam Complaints and Recommended Action/Appeal Process
If an email is sent out through Venntive that generates a Spam complaint or that an unsolicited email has been sent from the Venntive system tools, an investigation is initiated. The Venntive user is then notified that an unsolicited email complaint has been lodged against them and a demand is then issued to "show proof" that the complainant opted in to the user's list. The Venntive user is reminded of the terms they accepted in the End User License Agreement (including possible legal ramifications if the user is guilty of Spamming). In addition, the complainant's email address is automatically tagged as "unsubscribed" if the complainant did unsubscribe--so no further emails are sent to the complainant. The Venntive user is also required to manually remove the complainant's email address from their contact list of opt in email if the complainant did not unsubscribe.
Appeal Process - A Venntive user may appeal such complaint by providing a record of when that particular recipient chose to opt into the Venntive mailing list (hereinafter the “Opt In Record”).  The Venntive user shall solely be responsible for keeping and providing the Opt In Record that proves that the recipient chose to receive the email and was not simply put on such list unilaterally by the Venntive user.  If the Venntive user cannot provide Venntive with the Opt In Record, then the appeal shall be considered unsuccessful and the individual Spam complaint shall be assessed up to a $100 fine; fines vary depending on complaint.
Termination of Venntive User - If Venntive has ANY reason to believe the user of the opt in email, despite the warnings, is or will continue to send unsolicited bulk email to more than 10 individuals without the particular individuals permission, or any complainant who has previously unsubscribed, the user's Venntive account privileges are subject to immediate termination without penalty recourse or fee.
Requiring Users to Sign an End User License Agreement
All users of the Venntive system must abide by our Terms of Use. (Attached hereto as Exhibit “1”) Under Venntive's Terms of Use, the Venntive user promises and represents to Venntive that they will not abuse the Venntive system for their own benefit or send Spam to Venntive recipients. The Venntive user makes specific representations, and promises not to send unsolicited bulk email or SMS messages, for commercial or non-commercial purposes (unsolicited bulk email is defined as email sent to more than 10 individuals without end user’s express permission).
The Terms of Use also include such promises by the Venntive user as to not post, upload or otherwise transmit:
any content related to inappropriate subject matters;
any content to "rented" or "purchased" lists;
any content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene;
libelous, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable;
any content that you do not have a right to post and transmit under any law or contractual/fiduciary relationships;
any content, such that such posting, uploading, or transmission constitutes the infringement of any patent;
trademark, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary rights of any party;
any materials that contain software viruses or any other computer code, files or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment;
any materials which imposes an unreasonable large load on our infrastructure;
any content that is harmful to minors;
content that intentionally or unintentionally violates any applicable local, state, national or international law, including, but not limited to, regulations promulgated by the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission, any rules of national or other securities exchange, including without limitation, the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ, and any regulations having the force of law;
content that is misleading or impersonates any person or entity or falsely states or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity;
content with manipulated, or forged identifiers;
content promoting harm or providing instructional information about illegal activities;
Once Email Recipients Unsubscribe, Suppression Mandatory not Permissive
With regard to email campaigns, all users of Venntive must also accept that an unsubscribe option be automatically appended to every email sent to more than 100 people via the Venntive system.

Many spam complaints are registered with anti-spam agencies. We fully support the efforts of agencies working to responsibly curtail the sending of unsolicited commercial email.

Thank you for reviewing our Anti-Spam Policy.

10. Policies for Users in Australia
If you are a Member who lives in Australia, this Section applies to you. We are subject to the operation of the Privacy Act 1988 (“Australian Privacy Act”).
Where we say we assume an obligation about Personal Information, we are also requiring our subcontractors to undertake a similar obligation, where relevant.
We will not use or disclose Personal Information for the purpose of our direct marketing to you unless: you have consented to receive direct marketing; you would reasonably expect us to use your personal details for the marketing; or we believe you may be interested in the material but it is impractical for us to obtain your consent. You may opt out of any marketing materials we send to you through an unsubscribe mechanism or by contacting us directly. If you have requested not to receive further direct marketing messages, we may continue to provide you with messages that are not regarded as “direct marketing” under the Australian Privacy Act, including changes to our terms, system alerts, and other information related to your account.
Our servers are primarily located in the United States. In addition, we or our subcontractors, may use cloud technology to store or process Personal Information, which may result in storage of data outside Australia. It is not practicable for us to specify in advance which country will have jurisdiction over this type of off-shore activity. All of our subcontractors, however, are required to comply with the Australian Privacy Act in relation to the transfer or storage of Personal Information overseas.
If you think the information we hold about you is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant or misleading, we will take reasonable steps, consistent with our obligations under the Australian Privacy Act, to correct that information upon your request.
If you are unsatisfied with our response to a privacy matter then you may consult either an independent advisor or contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner for additional help. We will provide our full cooperation if you pursue this course of action.
