We take all spam issues very seriously. By accessing the websites of ASSOCIATIONSPHERE, DONORVIEW, BLUE HILL SITES, and/or CONNECTEDVIEW, LLC (collectively, the “Products”), and agreeing to our Terms and Conditions of Service, each subscriber and user (“user, “you” or “your”) is also agreeing to this Anti-Spam Policy in its entirety. You may not use any of the Products’ software or services to:

 

  • Send unsolicited email messages (a.k.a., “Spam”) to anyone without their permission;

  • Send unsolicited email messages to email addresses obtained from any purchased or harvested email lists in which the recipient did not expressly request to receive your email messages;

You Must

 

  • Include subscribe/unsubscribe information provided by our Products and a one-click unsubscribe option in each message you send using any of our Products;

  • Tell recipients how to opt out of future emails from you. All opt-out methods must allow a recipient to stop all messages from you. You must ensure that your spam filter does not block incoming opt-out requests. You must honor a recipient’s opt-out request within 10 business days. You must not charge a fee, require the recipient to give you any personally identifying information beyond an email address, or make the recipient take any step other than sending a reply email or visiting a single page on an Internet website as a condition for honoring an opt-out request. Once a recipient has told you they do not want to receive more messages from you, you cannot sell or transfer their email addresses, even in the form of a mailing list;

  • Honor in a timely manner all unsubscribe requests sent directly to you from those who elected not to use any of our Products’ automated subscribe/unsubscribe features, regardless of how harsh or unpleasant the unsubscribe request may be;

  • Provide true and accurate information to be used in email headers. “From,” “To,” “Reply-TO” and routing information data must be accurate and clearly identify the person or business who initiated the message;

  • Not use subject lines that mislead the recipient about the contents or subject matter of the message;

  • Clearly identify any messages that are advertisements, as advertisements; and

  • Include the name and valid physical postal address of the sender in all emails.

 

“No Spam” and Privacy Policies

 

You may use our Products’ software only for “opt-in” lists, lists in which the recipient has voluntarily signed up to be on your list and has not requested to be unsubscribed. Any messages sent to users who did not request to be on your lists, whether purchased or otherwise obtained without the recipients consent, will be deemed as “Spam” and may result in termination of your account without refund and legal action, including the pursuit of damages, against you for violating this Anti-Spam Policy. You agree to indemnify and hold ConnectedView, LLC harmless from any damages and claims arising from any violation of this policy. You also agree to abide by and display a Privacy Policy or link to a Privacy Policy on your list signup page. You must either: 1) use the Privacy Policy provided by our Products or 2) use a Privacy Policy that contains the same provisions as the Privacy Policy that is provided by our Products.

 

Any violation of this Anti-Spam Policy or any of our other policies may result in termination of your account without refund and legal action against you. You agree to indemnify and hold ConnectedView, LLC harmless from any damages and claims arising from any violation of this policy. If you wish to report any abuse of our Anti-Spam Policy, you can email us at reportabuse@connectedview.com
