In accordance with our Privacy Policy and our agreement with our Clients, ListBlaster does not share any information with any third party.

Anti-spam Policy Enforcement

ListBlaster enforces its Anti-spam policy using several methods:

• To the best of our knowledge, ListBlaster and the ListBlaster system adheres to ALL state and national laws regarding sending unsolicited bulk email.
• We provide ongoing training to our Email Marketing Consultants to consult with our prospective Clients on the proper methods they can use to build their email lists, as well as educating prospective Clients on ListBlaster's Anti-spam policy.
• On our agreement with our Clients, our Clients specifically agree NOT to use ListBlaster to send unsolicited email or spam.
• Upon signing up for the ListBlaster service, our Clients receive a live training and consultation including discussing the methods the Client will use to build their list.
• Every Client receives a Proprietary White-Paper of Email Marketing Best Practices.
• ListBlaster provides the option for Clients to use a Double-Opt-In method of verifying their data.
• ListBlaster provides the option for Clients to add a label ("ADV:" or "ADV:ADULT") at the beginning of the subject line. Attorneys in Florida have the option to add "legal advertisement" in the subject line.
• Upon importing a list into ListBlaster, we verify with our Client the source of the list and the method used to acquire the list.
• All emails sent using ListBlaster include point of origin and routing information as well as identifying information about the Client that sent the message.
• ListBlaster supports multiple OPT-OUT / REMOVE / UNSUBSCRIBE methods including instructions and a link at the bottom of each email distributed through ListBlaster, automatic opt-out using reply email, automatic opt-out using forwarding email, ListBlaster site Global Opt-Out, and the ability for Clients to remove emails.
• ListBlaster maintains an OPT-OUT list that restricts our Clients from adding an email address to their list that has been previously Opted-Out.
• We track all registered complaints related to each Client, and compare the rates against historical averages of abuse complaints across our system. If we suspect a violation of our Anti-spam policy, we will contact the Client and discuss the Clients options, which may range from a warning, to forcing the Client to implement our Double-Opt-In system, to termination of service for that Client, as well as other remedies.

ISPs and Network Administrators

While we do our best to keep ListBlaster free from abuse and encourage our Clients to use best practices to avoid generating complaints, the huge volume of messages we send does generate complaints, both to us, to our clients, and to ISPs and Network Administrators. If you receive complaints about unsolicited email sent from our service, please contact us and provide your contact information and the company you represent. We will investigate the complaint and respond to you with the results of our investigation.

OPT-OUT / REMOVE / UNSUBSCRIBE

If you wish to be removed from a SINGLE email list, please click the "UNSUBSCRIBE" link at the bottom of the email you received. You will be removed from that email list and that Client will be restricted from adding your email to their list in the future.

If you wish to be removed from ALL current and future Client email lists stored in the ListBlaster Client Databases, please email contact us.
