Anti-Spam Policy

What is Spam?

Spam is commercial email or unsolicited bulk email, including “junk mail”, which has not been requested by the recipient.  It is intrusive and often irrelevant or offensive, and it wastes valuable resources.  Spam messages are the opposite of permission-based email, which are normally anticipated, personal, relevant and/or associated with a pre-existing business or personal relationship.  Inappropriate newsgroup activities, consisting of excessive posting of the same materials to several newsgroups, are also deemed to be spam.

Preventing Spam

WTRCustomers of WTR products and services have agreed during their registration process, upon accepting the Terms of Use, to comply with this Anti-Spam Policy.  Specifically, each customer agrees not to use the WTR products or services to send unsolicited email or bulk email, whether or not for commercial purposes.  WTR reserves the right to determine in its sole discretion what constitutes actionable spam, as well as what measures are necessary in response to such spam activities.

How WTR Helps You to Avoid Spamming

Tips To Avoid Spamming

Whenever possible, set up a new e-mail address when subscribing to a newsletter. e.g. new-address@your-domain-name.com. This prevents your main e-mail address being used for spamming by unscrupulous companies who may sell their mailing list addresses to spammers. It also makes it quick and pain free to unsubscribe, should your attempts to unsubscribe fail. Just delete the e-mail address. Do not put any of your e-maail addresses on your website. They will be found by spam robots and used to send you spam.

Laws Restricting Spam

Spam laws vary from state to state, and from country to country. For the The EC Directive On Privacy And Electronic Communications click here (the file will download automatically from The European Union online website). 

This WTR Anti-Spam Policy has been developed to conform to the highest commercially reasonable standards.  As a result, and without limiting the general prohibitions against all spam activities, the following are expressly prohibited:

Questions to ask yourself

To help in establishing whether you are participating in activities constituting spam, ask yourself the following questions:

If you answer yes to any of these questions, you are likely involved in spam activities, and should contact WTR customer support service at anti-spam@website-traffic-resources.com.

Measures to enforce anti spam policy

Any WTR customer found to be using WTR products or services for spamming purposes may, at WTR’s discretion, be immediately cut off from use of all WTR products and services and/or fined US$ 1,000 per occurrence, with no refund of fees that have been paid.

WTR warns all of its customers when signing up that if they participate in spamming activities they will be subject to the loss of WTR services, fines and possible legal action.

WTR has the right to actively review its customers’ subscriber lists and email for suspiciously large broadcasts.  If WTR finds any customers to be spamming, it will issue a warning, and if the activities are serious enough, WTR will take action immediately.  If WTR has any reason to believe that the customer, despite warning being given, threatens to or is continuing to send spam, then WTR may take action immediately, including disabling the customer’s account and/or reporting the customer and the incident to the proper authorities.

WTR does not attempt to censor any content, nor to curtail the business of its customers.  However, spam activities do not fall within uses authorized by WTR, and will not be tolerated.

reporting spam

If you believe that you have received spam from or through WTR’s facilities, please send a complaint from your email account along with the unsolicited email, with completed header, report-spam@website-traffic-resources.com.  Please provide any other information that you believe may help us in our investigation.  WTR does not investigate or take any action based on “anonymous” spam complaints.

false spam complaints

WTR supports the efforts of various organizations working to responsibly eliminate spam activities.  However, if an individual has opted-in to receive email from a customer of WTR, and then falsely or maliciously files a spam complaint against WTR or its customers, WTR will cooperate fully with the appropriate agencies to ban the complainant from use of anti-spam software and the Internet community.

Here are some basic rules you must follow to avoid being accused of spamming:

• Keep records of how and when people are added to your list.
• Track requests to opt out (and remove people who opt-out immediately).
• Post your privacy policy on your web site.
• Research 3rd part service providers before signing any contracts for e-mail services.
• Be careful when renting 3rd party subscriber lists. Make sure people on the list have given their permission to sell/rent their address.
• Use a real return e-mail address with enough storage space to receive opt-outs (and bounce-backs).
• Provide easy instructions on how to unsubsribe from your e-mail marketing list.
