Anti-Spam Policy
DNK Web Solutions, Inc., has ZERO TOLERANCE for Unsolicited Broadcast Email and
Unsolicited Commercial Email (commonly known as "Spam") whether originating from
customers, from resellers' customers, or from customers that provide services which
are used to support Spam
DNK Web Solutions, Inc. defines Spam as unsolicited broadcast or commercial email
that is sent to addresses that do not affirmatively and verifiably request such
material from that specific sender, including but not limited to advertising, surveys,
information pieces, third party spamming, Web site addresses, sales, and auctions.
- DNK Web Solutions, Inc. customers, and customers of DNK Web Solutions, Inc. resellers
or any downstream customers, are prohibited from sending and shall not allow their
site to be used for sending Spam. Mail senders are required to maintain records
that verify, on a case by case basis, that explicit affirmative permission was obtained
from recipients before mailing. Lack of such records can be considered, at DNK Web
Solutions, Inc. sole discretion, proof that permission was not obtained.
- DNK Web Solutions, Inc. does not permit the use of any domain or IP Address hosted
by DNK Web Solutions, Inc. to be included in any SPAM Email. You cannot send spam
from another provider and provide a link to your web site/domain/IP Address with
us in the Spam email. Doing so is a violation of this policy.
- DNK Web Solutions, Inc. customers are responsible for ensuring that they, their
customers, and their respective agents and contractors abide by this policy. DNK
Web Solutions, Inc. customers will be held responsible for all traffic sent via
their connection to DNK Web Solutions, Inc. or sent elsewhere, using support services
provided via their connection to DNK Web Solutions, Inc. "Support services" includes
hosting Web sites, electronic mailboxes, telephony gateways, IRC servers, sale of
spamming software or other similar services. Customers are also responsible for
ensuring that they do not advertise or promote themselves through Spam.
- DNK Web Solutions, Inc. may charge customer and customer shall pay $175.00 per valid
Spam complaint of which DNK Web Solutions, Inc. is notified.
- If DNK Web Solutions, Inc. receives a complaint, it will be forwarded to customer
for a response and complete resolution. If within twenty four (24) hours there is
no response indicating complete resolution, DNK Web Solutions, Inc. may block traffic
to and from the specified Web site or the server involved in the Spam complaint
until DNK Web Solutions, Inc. is convinced that the problem is resolved and preventative
measures have been implemented to prevent the violation from recurring. The customer
is responsible for all Spam that passes through his Web site / Server / Domain Name.
- DNK Web Solutions, Inc. also reserves the right to block traffic to and from the
IP address(es) involved in hacking, and/or port scanning.
- DNK Web Solutions, Inc. does not allow the use of their services for mass mailings.
This includes all mailing lists, legitimate opt-in or not. Email usage in excess
of 500 emails per account per 24 hours is not allowed and could result in suspension
of email services, account suspension, and/or account termination. For these types
of mass mailings, a third party mass email service should be used.
- In addition, from time to time, DNK Web Solutions, Inc. blocks third party IP addresses
that DNK Web Solutions, Inc. believes are used for the distribution of Spam or are
designated as open relays. Any blocking of such IP addresses shall prevent DNK Web
Solutions, Inc. customers from sending or receiving traffic to and from such IP
addresses.
- DNK Web Solutions, Inc. resellers must educate their customers about Spam to ensure
compliance with these provisions.
- You must promptly investigate and satisfactorily deal with any Spam complaints forwarded
to you.
- When using a mailing list, you must confirm that the recipients on the mailing lists
have requested or otherwise affirmatively accepted receipt of any materials to be
sent by you
Unlike senders of traditional "junk mail" who are required to pay for envelopes,
materials and postage, senders of Spam can, given the nature of the internet, impose
enormous costs on the recipients of their messages at little or no cost to themselves.
Costs imposed on Spam recipients include ISP bandwidth used to deliver Spam, additional
IP infrastructure needed to handle Spam, and time and money wasted in filtering
out and deleting Spam. DNK Web Solutions, Inc. believes that users of the Internet
should not be forced to incur such expenses without their consent. As a result,
DNK Web Solutions, Inc. believes that the elimination of Spam will result in a better
and less expensive Internet experience for all Internet users and will allow DNK
Web Solutions, Inc. to provide better and more efficient service to its customers.
