Compliance with CAN-SPAM Act

Publisher will fully comply with all requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act in every email it drops containing offers from Killingsworth Environmental.

Without limiting the generality of this compliance requirement, Publishers are specifically advised of the following:

Email shall not contain a false or misleading domain name in the sender’s address or anywhere else in the message header. All domain names used in message headers must be properly registered by the Publisher with accurate contact information used in the registration.

Email shall not contain a non-functioning IP address. All IP addresses used in connection with sending email containing an offer from Killingsworth Environmental must be valid and must be under the ownership/control of the sending party.

Email shall not contain a falsified or deceptive subject line. Every subject line must have a substantive relationship to the content of the email. Any attempt to make an email appear as if it was in reply to a previous email or an email forwarded to the recipient by someone else is strictly prohibited.

Email shall not contain a false or deceptive alias or “from line.” The “from line” must have a substantive relationship to the sender or the content of the email. Use of “from lines” containing the name of any individual not directly employed by the Publisher is prohibited without the express written consent of Killingsworth Environmental.

Every email shall contain a valid physical address of the Publisher sending the email. A post office box address is sufficient to comply with this requirement.

Every email shall contain a functioning return electronic mail address or other internet-based mechanism, clearly and conspicuously displayed, that (i) a recipient may use to submit, in a manner specified in the message, a reply electronic mail message or other form of internet-based communication requesting not to receive future commercial electronic mail messages from that sender at the electronic mail address where the message was received; and (ii) remains capable of receiving such messages or communications for no less than 30 days after the transmission of the original message.

Publisher warrants that it honors unsubscribe/opt-out requests within 10 days of original receipt.

Email shall only be delivered to persons who have provided prior affirmative consent to receive commercial email messages from the Publisher. Use of harvested or culled data is strictly prohibited.

To the extent that Publisher uses any affiliate or other third party to deliver email containing commercial offers provided by Killingsworth Environmental, Publisher warrants that said affiliate or third party will act in full compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act and all other Killingsworth Environmental Publisher Terms and Conditions.

Publisher agrees to fully indemnify and defend Killingsworth Environmental against any claim brought against it for any violation of the CAN-SPAM Act that is the result of an email delivered by Publisher or any affiliate or third party acting on behalf of Publisher.

In the event that Killingsworth Environmental determines in its sole discretion that Publisher has violated any provision of the CAN-SPAM Act or any other part of the Killingsworth Environmental terms and conditions, Killingsworth Environmental will terminate Publisher’s account status immediately and without pay for all outstanding campaigns. In the event that Killingsworth Environmental takes such action, Publisher may obtain a written explanation of the reasons behind the cancellation if explanation is requested from Killingsworth Environmental within 48 hours of notification of cancellation. Explanation shall be provided within 10 business days.

Publisher further warrants that any new data that it acquires, regardless of its source, will be run against the FCC’s wireless domain names list and that domain names contained therein will be removed before sending any Killingsworth Environmental Network mailings.
