4. Antispam Policy
Newsletter Subscriber
A registered user is added to our Newsletter Subscribers database when he/she leaves the “Yes. I want to subscribe to the SoundBankz newsletter” option ON, on our registration page. After completing our registration process which involves clicking an activation link sent to his/her email account the user becomes a Newsletter Subscriber. Our email communication with our Newsletter Subscribers is based solely on their permission.
What Is Spam?
Spam is unsolicited email also known as Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE). It involves emails sent to users who:
● Have no association with the sender
● Have registered an account but not opted in to receive commercial emails
● Have previously opted in but then opted out of receiving commercial emails
It is also email communications without a valid reply-to address.
Email Communications
SoundBankzs does not send spam – ever. The goal of our existing email communications is to inform our Newsletter Subscribers of the new audioware releases which are published on a weekly basis. Our Newsletters include the links to our new products, information about promotions and latest news from our industry.
We cooperate with other businesses that target similar audiences as ours – they send our newsletters to their opted-in subscriber base. We are very careful about the antispam practices of these businesses and never cooperate with companies that are outside the scope of our audience or our industry or which have an unclear Antispam Policy.
We do not sell or distribute (for financial gain or for free) or otherwise disclose any partner or customer e-mail addresses to any third parties except when legally required.
Every newsletter contains an Unsubscribe link at the top of the message.
Necessary Communication
There are situations which by their own nature require us to send you emails.
These include:
● Sending a message to your emailbox with the link to activate your account at SoundBankz
● Sending you invoices for each completed transaction on our website.
● Sending you emails concerning technical, legal and support matters.
Please make sure you do not flag Sound Bankz as ‘Spam’ or ‘Unsolicited’ in your email application. When you register and do not find an activation email in your inbox, check your spam folder.
When you get in contact with us (for example by email or via a form on the website) we will keep records of what is communicated. This is to ensure we have a record of our discussion for future reference and so we can improve the website.
