Internet Marketing Technologies encourages all of our customers to comply with the new USA federal law that went into effect on January 1, 2004 referred to as the "Can Spam" law. If you follow a few simple guidelines (listed below), it is actually very easy to comply with this new law. This law supercedes all state and local laws regarding "spam" (unsolicited bulk email), and simply provides guidelines to prevent fraud and deception, and to enforce the honoring of "remove requests" (requests to have an email address removed from a mailing list). This new law does not make bulk email illegal - in fact, many anti-spam organizations have complained that it actually legalizes unsolicited bulk email and will not curb the spam problem at all.

Our products are guaranteed 100% compliant with the new USA federal "Can Spam" law that went into effect on January 1, 2004. This new law is primarily designed to combat fraud and enforce the honoring of remove requests, and does not prohibit anyone from sending bulk email. As a matter of fact, many anti-spam organizations have complained that it actually legalizes unsolicited bulk email. However, there is a right way and a wrong way to conduct a bulk email campaign. The software programs and free resources on this website will equip you with the tools and knowledge you will need to succeed with email marketing - legally. If you have a computer, an Internet connection, and a willingness to learn, you can begin getting the same results for your business or organization that the big Fortune 500 online companies are getting from bulk email marketing. You just have to do it according to the rules.

A few of our customers have called recently and asked if the new USA federal "Can Spam" law has outlawed bulk email marketing. The answer is "no", it has not. It simply provides a new set of guidelines to combat fraud and other deceptive practices such as using fraudulent or deceptive subject lines, forged return email addresses, hijacked mail server relays, and requiring that the bulk emailer provides a valid unsubscribe option. Our software programs are actually designed to help you comply with this new law. For example, our unique Prospect Remover software program automatically processes your remove requests, sparing you the time-consuming process of manually removing them one by one from your email address lists. After Prospect Remover receives your remove requests, you simply load the opt-out lists that it creates into Prospect Manager to remove the unsubscribers from your lists.
