Nifty ANTI-SPAM POLICY
Nifty prohibits the use of the Service in any manner associated with the transmission, distribution or delivery of any unsolicited bulk or unsolicited commercial email (“Spam”).
You may not use the Service to send Spam. You also may not deliver Spam or cause Spam to be delivered to any of Nifty’ Services or customers.
In addition, email sent, or caused to be sent, to or through the Service may not:
- Use or contain invalid or forged headers;
- Use or contain invalid or non-existent domain names;
- Employ any technique to otherwise misrepresent, hide or obscure any information in identifying the point of origin or the transmission path;
- Use other means of deceptive addressing;
- Use a third party’s internet domain name, or be relayed from or through a third party’s equipment, without permission of the third party;
- Contain false or misleading information in the subject line or otherwise contain false or misleading content;
- Fail to comply with additional technical standards described below; or
- Otherwise violate the applicable Terms of Use for the Service.
Nifty does not authorize the harvesting, mining or collection of email addresses or other information from or through the Service. Nifty does not permit or authorize others to use the Service to collect, compile or obtain any information about Nifty’ customers or subscribers, including but not limited to subscriber email addresses, which are Nifty’ confidential and proprietary information. Use of the Service is also subject to the applicable Privacy Statement and Terms of Use.
Nifty does not permit or authorize any attempt to use the Service in a manner that could damage, disable, overburden or impair any aspect of any of the Service, or that could interfere with any other party’s use and enjoyment of any Service.
If Nifty believes that unauthorized or improper use is being made of any Service, it may, without notice, take such action as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, including blocking messages from a particular internet domain, mail server or IP address. Nifty may immediately terminate any account on any Service which it determines, in its sole discretion, is transmitting or is otherwise connected with any email that violates this policy.
Nothing in this policy is intended to grant any right to transmit or send email to, or through, the Service. Failure to enforce this policy in every instance does not amount to a waiver of Nifty’ rights.
Unauthorized use of the Service in connection with the transmission of unsolicited email, including the transmission of email in violation of this policy, may result in civil, criminal, or administrative penalties against the sender and those assisting the sender. The CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act) establishes requirements for those who send commercial email, spells out penalties for spammers and companies whose products are advertised in spam if they violate the law, and gives consumers the right to ask emailers to stop spamming them.
