Definition of Spam

Spam is ANY and ALL unsolicited e-mail or alternative electronic messages. Any promotion, information, or solicitation sent to a person without their DIRECT prior consent is Spam. Examples of Spam (consist of, but are NOT limited to):

Any e-message is Spam if sent to a recipient who had previously signed up to receive newsletters, product information, or any other type of e-message, but later opted-out by indicating to the sender they no longer wish to receive additional e-messages.
Any e-message sent to recipients that have had no prior association with the sender or did not DIRECTLY agree to be contacted by the sender is Spam.
Any e-message sent to recipients obtained from "opt-in" lists with whom the sender has no prior association is Spam.
Any e-message sent to a recipient without a clear way for a person to opt-out or request future messages not be sent to them, is Spam.
Any e-message sent or posted via chat rooms, instant messaging systems, newsgroups, message boards, or Usenet is Spam.
Any e-message that does not have a valid reply-to address is Spam.

What is NOT Spam?

A message is NOT Spam if the recipient directly requested information be sent to them from the sender or the sender's organization, and that recipient has not subsequently asked for removal from their list.

If you are unsure as to whether a particular e-message violates this policy, the e-message will most likely be considered Spam. If you have any questions about our Anti-Spam Policy, or if you want to report a violation of our policies, please contact ws_abuse@wsdomains.ws.

What other requirements must be followed to be compliant with GDI's Anti-Spam Policies?

All e-messages sent (including, but in no way limited to anything you reply to) with any mention of or linking in any way to our products, services, offerings, or anything whatsoever tied to our company must include the direct link to our Global Remove Database. You may include other removal links in your messages, but they cannot be used in place of our link. Failure to clearly include our removal link is a direct violation of our Anti-Spam policies.

The direct link is:

http://mail.global-site-communications.ws/delete.cgi?email=EMAIL_ADDRESS_TO_REMOVE

The "EMAIL_ADDRESS_TO_REMOVE" must be replaced with the recipient's actual email address. For example, if you were sending a message to prospect1@wsdomains.ws, the proper link to use would be:

http://mail.global-site-communications.ws/delete.cgi?email=prospect1@wsdomains.ws

If you were sending a message to prospect200@wsdomains.ws, the proper link to use would be:

http://mail.global-site-communications.ws/delete.cgi?email=prospect200@wsdomains.ws

And so on

I heard about a United States federal law about Spam. What is this law?

This is known as the Can-Spam Act. You can find details about this legislation at http://www.spamlaws.com/federal/index.shtml.

How does the Can-Spam Act work with GDI's Anti-Spam Policies?

All e-messages sent (including, but in no way limited to anything you reply to) with any mention of or linking in any way to our products, services, offerings, or anything whatsoever tied to our company must include the direct link to our Global Remove Database. You may include other removal links in your messages, but they cannot be used in place of our link. Failure to clearly include our removal link is a direct violation of our Anti-Spam policies.

Does GDI's Anti-Spam Policy change?

Yes, though we will never remove requirements. We can and do occasionally add new requirements. Be sure to check back often to ensure your marketing methods are always compliant.
