UNSOLICITED
EMAIL
Unsolicited
email may be illegal or subject to law in various jurisdictions. You
must comply with all applicable laws.
As
you are likely aware, the United States recently enacted the CAN-SPAM
Act and the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) has issued its final Rule
to prescribe what must be included in all commercial electronic mail
that contains sexually oriented materials.
This Rule is scheduled to become effective May 19, 2004.
All
individuals mailing sexually explicit materials must comply:
1.
The exact phrase "SEXUALLY-EXPLICIT:" must be contained in
capital letters as the first 19 characters at the beginning of the subject
line. This phrase in the subject line must be in ASCII format.
2.
The exact phrase "SEXUALLY-EXPLICIT:" must be in capital letters
as the first 19 characters in the "brown paper wrapper" area
of the email message. The Brown Paper Wrapper refers to the opening
portion of the e-mail that is immediately visible
to the recipient, without the need to scroll down or taking any other
affirmative steps to view the message. However, sexually explicit material
may be displayed beneath the "brown paper wrapper" area of
the email message or accessed by clicking on a link.
3.
The Rule also requires the mandatory disclosure of the sender's "valid
physical postal address" to be "clear and conspicuous,"
like the other required disclosures.
4.
In addition, the "brown paper wrapper" area must indicate
that the message itself is an advertisement or solicitation, and contain
an e-mail address that the recipient can reply to declining any further
commercial e-mail messages from the sender.
5.
As CAN SPAM covers both visual images as well as the written word, the
subject line must not contain text with written descriptions of Sexually
Explicit Conduct. Also the "brown paper wrapper" area of the
email message must not contain Materials with Sexually Explicit Conduct.
Sexually Explicit Conduct means actual or simulated sexual intercourse
[including genital-genital, oral-genital, anal-genital, or oral-anal,
whether heterosexual or homosexual]; bestiality; masturbation; sadistic
or masochistic abuse; or lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic
area of a human being.
If
you have any questions, please contact your sales representative.
6. Term of the Agreement. The term of this Agreement will begin upon
our written acceptance by email of your application and will end immediately
when terminated by either party in writing (by email). Either you or
we may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause,
by giving the other party notice of termination. Notice by email, to
your email address in our records, is considered sufficient notice for
us to terminate this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated because
you have violated the terms of this Agreement you waive any right to
receive any payments due and unpaid to you, even for commissions earned
prior to the date of termination. If this Agreement is terminated for
any other reason, you are only eligible to payments on sales occurring
during the term of the Agreement, and commissions earned through the
date of termination will remain payable only if the related subscriptions
are not canceled or returned. We reserve the right to withhold your
final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount
is paid.
7.
Modification. We may modify any of the terms and conditions contained
in this Agreement, at any time and in our sole discretion. Notice of
any change by email, to your address in our records, or notice posted
on our site, is considered sufficient notice to you of a change to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. Modifications may include, but
are not limited to, changes in the scope of available commission fees,
commission schedules, payment procedures, and Affiliate Program rules.
All such modifications shall take effect 48 hours after we serve notice
as provided above, unless we indicate otherwise. If any modification
is unacceptable to you, your only recourse is to terminate this Agreement.
Your continued participation in the Affiliate Program, following our
posting of modifications or a new agreement on our site, will constitute
your binding acceptance of the change in terms and conditions.
8
Relationship of Parties. You and Affiliate Program are independent contractors,
and nothing in this Agreement will create any partnership, joint venture,
agency, franchise, sales representative, or employment relationship
between the parties. You have no authority to make or accept any offers

on your site(s) or otherwise, that reasonably would contradict anything
in this Section. You are not an agent of the Affiliate Program and the
