8. Anti-Spam Requirements.
8.1 SPAM. Spam is any type of unsolicited messages. By sending messages to only those who have explicitly requested to receive it, you are following accepted permission-based messaging guidelines. You should not assume a preexisting relationship to be a substitute for explicit consent to send messages. For example, if your customer disclosed a mobile number in a normal course of business but did not specifically express consent to receive your message, you cannot send messages to the number. If it is discovered that you have been delivering any type of message to recipients who have not granted you consent, you will be held fully accountable for your actions. We are not responsible for your messages complying with applicable laws. You are subject to any legal actions that result from such violations including class action suits whether you use our standard user interface or API. Please refer to the following list of resources to help combat possible spam violations:
8.2 Consent Required. MM provides businesses and organizations with a variety of tools to collect names, phone numbers, email addresses, and other information on an opt-in basis. MM also provides a tool to help you import subscriber data. However, contact information may be imported only if the subscribers gave full consent to receive a specified type of messaging from your organization. Proof of such specific consent is required as part of the certification process before the import of contact information. In addition, industry regulations prohibit text-to-win campaigns by shared short code or transmitting undesirable content such as violence, pornography, alcohol, illegal drugs, and other prohibited material described in this document.
8.3 You Agree to No Engage in sending SPAM. MM's service may NOT be used for sending any unsolicited messages (commonly known as spam) except for government-sanctioned cases such as financial and healthcare alerts. You agree to the privacy and anti-spam policies described in this document and agree to enforce the indicated permission-based marketing practices with anyone using your account as required by law. You agree to assume full responsibility and accept the legal consequences of any action by anyone using your account.
8.4 Your Account May Be Suspended or Closed. MM reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time, at its sole discretion, and without prior warning or refund if your account activity is reasonably believed to violate any term in this agreement or applicable law. Violation of applicable anti-spam regulation may also cause third-party legal action against you. MM also reserves the right to refuse service if MM believes that your conduct is harmful to the interests of MM and its affiliates. MM reserves the sole discretion and right to permanently delete archived data after 90 days.
8.5 MM Has A Right To Monitor. MM has a no-tolerance policy toward spam. Although MM does not assume the duty or obligation to monitor messages, MM reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to monitor any and all messages created or sent by you or any third party at any time without prior notice to ensure that they conform to guidelines and policies pertaining to our Website and services.
Evading MM's monitoring system or the transmission of spam messages through the system violates these Terms of Use. If you know of or suspect any violators, please notify us immediately by clicking here.
Every outgoing email via the MM service must contain a link that allows the recipient to unsubscribe from your distribution list(s). Voice broadcasts also must include verbal instructions for opting out of your calling list. All mobile messages must conform to the latest available best-practice guidelines published by the Mobile Marketing Association (http://www.mmaglobal.com/consumer-best-practices) which you agree to review before using MM's service. For example, and without limitation, every SMS short code message must include "STOP" instructions.
8.6 Mobile Keywords.: You must include the opt-in disclosure shown below in all of your promotional materials in all media: website, printed material, digital and event promotions, broadcasts, and any other material promoting your mobile keyword. The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and Cellular Telephone Industries Association (CTIA) strictly prohibit omission of this disclosure in whole or in part. Failure to include the following terms may result in suspension of your mobile keyword without warning as well as third-party legal action.
8.7 What constitutes prior express written consent? If you are sending text or voice messages for solicitation purposes, then your campaign must meet the "prior express written consent" standard. The revised TCPA rule defines "prior express written consent" as a signed written agreement that clearly and conspicuously discloses to the consumer that:
The required signature may be obtained in compliance with the E-SIGN Act, including via an e-mail, website form, text message, telephone key press, or voice recording.
8.8 Use of Lists. You agree to not access or use ANY third-party mailing lists for email addresses, instant message screen names, or phone numbers, or otherwise prepare or distribute unsolicited messages in connection with our service. You agree to import, add, edit, access or use only lists for which all listed parties have opted in to receive correspondence from you ("Permission-Based Lists"). You hereby covenant that you shall not use any other lists in connection with your use of the service. In addition, it is prohibited to import phone numbers without tangible proof of the subscribers' explicit consent to receive messages. Doing so will deny you of this feature or be subjected to a stringent qualification process to comply with various local and federal laws. The process includes the proof of method for opt-in, to provide evidence of opt-in, your legal identity and your organization's identity.
8.9 Partial Delivery. You acknowledge and agree that not all messages sent via FFNPRO service will be received by their intended recipients. For example, sending a message to a distribution list may deliver messages to unintended recipients due to the list changing. It is your responsibility to keep your distribution lists updated.
8.10 You agree to comply with all local, state and federal regulations and general practices governing your specific content or promotion type. Additionally, content affiliated with pornographic or sexually explicit material tobacco, marijuana or alcoholic beverages is prohibited.
