Unsolicited email prohibited; consequences of sending unsolicited email:
Unsolicited email prohibited. You are strictly prohibited from mass-mailing unwanted email advertisements or solicitations of any type (e.g. SPAM, UCE) (collectively, “Unsolicited Email”). Further, in conjunction with all state and federal laws (which you should be aware of and in compliance with when sending out any mail), YMCA prohibits a person from sending out or conspiring with another to initiate the transmission of Unsolicited Email that: (a) uses a third party’s internet domain without permission of the third party, (b) misrepresents or obscures any information in identifying the point of origin, IP address, or the transmission path of a commercial electronic mail message; (c) contains false or misleading information in the subject line or inappropriate/adult material (as determined by YMCA) in the message body; (d) contains an ineffective opt-out procedure; or (e) uses an email list without knowledge of its source. Any user that is a sender of an email that is in violation of the rules in this agreement and/or any law or regulation is required to indemnify and hold YMCA harmless due to the sender’s act or omission in sending the email.
Right to Disable Account or Domain. If you send Unsolicited Email and/or are listed on a public spam database, YMCA reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to immediately disable any domain or user account that allegedly sent such unsolicited email(s) in order to forestall further abuse or damage to email systems. Unsolicited Email sent from other networks that reference email accounts of domains registered by YMCA shall be considered to have originated from the account referenced, unless compelling reasons are provided to YMCA, such that YMCA believes that the Unsolicited Email originated with an unrelated third party.
Single complaint of Unsolicited Email. If YMCA receives a complaint regarding Unsolicited Email, YMCA will reasonably investigate the claim by, among other things, contacting the administrative contact and/or the account owner of the domain at the listed email address. If there is no response within five (5) days of our request, YMCA will, in its discretion, take such action as it deems warranted to prevent further sending of Unsolicited Email, including but not limited to suspending and locking the domain. If the domain registrant wishes to reinstate the domain after a ‘lock’ is in place, it must apply to do so with YMCA, take such remedial measures as YMCA may request, and YMCA may unlock the account, in its sole discretion. For those domains approved to be unlocked, an administrative fee and a probationary period may also be imposed at YMCA’s discretion.
Multiple complaints of Unsolicited Email. If YMCA receives two or more complaints for two or more different domains within the same account related to Unsolicited Email, and there is no response to either or both requests for explanation, YMCA may suspend and lock the domains in question and lock and disable the domains in the entire account. For those domains within the account that have not received an Unsolicited Email complaint, such domains may be permitted to be transferred to another registrar at the account owner/domain registrant’s sole expense. However, the domains that have received Unsolicited Email complaints will remain locked and suspended, at YMCA’s discretion.
Additional Unsolicited Email guidelines. Certain YMCA services may have additional Unsolicited Email guidelines explaining appropriate conduct for those services. It is the user’s responsibility to read and comply with each service’s guidelines for additional details regarding Unsolicited Email.
Enforcement of Unsolicited Email policy. In addition to the above actions, violations of this or any section may result in legal action and/or a fine against you and the termination, without notice, of your account and/or anything associated with it, including, but not limited to, email accounts, posts, home pages, and profiles. Nothing in this policy is intended to grant any right to transmit email to or through YMCA computer systems.
