Radiant Heat Disasters Anti-Spam Policy
Radiant Heat Disasters is committed to permission-based email marketing
practices, and as a result has established this no-tolerance Anti-Spam Policy. Radiant Heat
Disasters will occasionally update this Anti-Spam Policy. When it does, Radiant Heat
Disasters will also revise the “last update” date at the bottom of this
Anti-Spam Policy. For changes to this policy, Radiant Heat Disasters will notify you (the
customer) by placing a notice on its web site’s home page.
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 emails, 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
Customers of Radiant Heat Disasters products and services have agreed during
their registration process, upon accepting the Terms of Use, to comply with this Anti-Spam
Policy. Radiant Heat Disasters 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 Radiant Heat Disasters Helps to Avoid Spamming
Radiant Heat Disasters has developed its Internet marketing tools to
incorporate a strict permission-based philosophy. This anti-spam philosophy is implemented
through the following:
Unsubscribe
– Each email created contains an “unsubscribe link”.
When our web site visitors use the link to request that they be unsubscribed, our subscriber
lists are automatically adjusted to eliminate the prospect of sending unwanted email to such
persons. Additionally, each person on our subscriber list has the option of unsubscribing
through a web-based method provided on the Blotch web site.
Purchased Mailing Lists
– Radiant Heat Disasters will never do mass mailings to purchased
email lists. Radiant Heat Disasters only uses opt-in mailing lists. Purchased or
inherited lists are by definition not opt-in.
- Laws Restricting Spam
Spam laws vary from state to state, and from country to country. This Radiant Heat
Disasters 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:
- Use of false headers, or other false information, to identify the point of origin or
the transmission path of the email, or to hide the true origin of the email sender
- Unauthorized use of a third party’s internet domain name without the permission
of such third party, to make it appear that the third party was the point of origin of the
email
- Use of any false or misleading information in the subject line of the email
- Assisting any person in using the products or services of IMC for any of these
previously mentioned activities.
Reporting Spam
If you believe that you have received spam from or through Radiant Heat
Disasters’s facilities, please send a complaint from your email account along with the
unsolicited email, with completed header, to . Please provide any other information that you believe may help us in our
investigation. Radiant Heat Disasters does not investigate or take any action based on
“anonymous” spam complaints.
