CRMBOOST.COM ANTI-SPAM POLICY

SPAM is any commercial e-mail communication sent without the recipient's permission.

CRMBOOST Email Marketing Module is a service intended to be used for the sole and exclusive purpose of sending messages to customers who have agreed and confirmed to receive such messages from you. This is called Permission-based E-mail Marketing. No other use is acceptable and permitted. Your account may be immediately suspended or terminated if you send SPAM

MONITORING

CRMBOOST monitors your use of the Email Marketing Module to ensure that it is in compliance with anti-SPAM regulations and may suspend or terminate your account if you are in violation of such regulations. This action will be taken with no legal injunction or notice, but many be followed by additional legal actions in order to exempt CRMBOOST from any responsibility related to the misuse of the software. For example, in the case of any violation of intellectual property laws or a third party's intellectual property rights.

RULE OF CONDUCT

You may not:

• Harvest emails from websites
• Purchase lists (whether they are opt-in or not)
• Send out unrelated offers or content to your opt-in list
• Add an email address into a list without the subscriber's permission
• Email someone who has requested to be removed from your list

You may:

• Send out a regular newsletter or promotion to a recipient who has double opted-in (or verified opted-in) to receive it.
• Send out email to a customer who is actively engage in business with you
• Send any other communication which ahs been specifically requested by third parties

CRMBOOST prohibit the use of false identities or false return addresses or numbers while sending unsolicited messages for direct marketing purposes, and will take actions to prevent, avoid or reprimand any such attempt.

INAPPROPRIATE E-MAIL ACTIVITIES

• Commercial e-mail: Defined as sending unsolicited commercial e-mails. This is prohibited. You are not permitted to use your CRMBOOST account to send unsolicited commercial e-mail. Using an e-mail address hosted anywhere on CRMBOOST servers to collect responses from unsolicited commercial e-mail is prohibited. This includes using a throw-away, free e-mail account to promote your CRMBOOST account and redirectors for the same account.
• Mail Bombing: Defined as sending large volumes of unsolicited e-mail to individuals from your CRMBOOST account. This is strictly prohibited.
• Harassment: Defined as sending threatening or harassing e-mail after being requested to stop, is prohibited. Extremely threatening or harassing e-mail never is allowed.

FINE / PENALTIES

Should you violate CRMBOOST SPAM Policies, you WILL be charged $200 per hour for the time it takes us to "clean-up" your SPAM. This shall include but not be limited to the time required to answer e-mail from angry recipients of your SPAM and/or repair of a damaged server due to the "Mail Bombing" or other actions of the angry recipients in retaliation of your SPAM. You will also be charged $20 per gigabyte of data transfer that your SPAM incurred, including bandwidth used by answers to or complaints about your SPAM. We will invoice this amount and should it not be paid, we will take legal action against you in court, and/or we will contact a collection agency to recover the funds. Please note also that it is now considered a crime to send UCE (unsolicited commercial e-mail) as it falls into the category of " junk faxes." CRMBOOST will turn over all names and personal information to the proper local, state, federal, and international officials of any person who violates this policy.

We take a very dim view of SPAM. It is one of the most annoying things encountered on the Internet. Any CRMBOOST client found to be spamming will have his/her account terminated immediately - no questions asked (we will investigate the report thoroughly before terminating any account). There is no warning or second chance. If we find that you have violated our Acceptable Usage Policy, we will report you and the incident to the proper local, state and federal authorities and will prosecute you to the full extent of the law.

We are not attempting to censor, nor are we attempting to curtail the business of our customers. But as a whole, spamming hurts our members and us more than it helps the one spammer. Do yourself, and us, a favor: PLEASE DON'T DO IT.

If you know of any CRMBOOST client that is or might be violating this policy, please send a message or, if possible, forward the SPAM or UCE in full (including headers) to abuse@crmboost.com.
