We will refund a pro rata portion of your monthly prepayment if we terminate against you without cause. We will not refund and/or reimburse you in such manner, if there is cause, such as your using our system to send bulk Emails to people who have not consented to receive the Emails or, even if consent was obtained, you had not sent any emails to such list for more than 12 months. Once terminated, we may remove any of your electronic newsletters or other emails and related data and files from our Website and any other storage.

You agree to the following:

We have adopted the definition of Spam set forth on the Spamhous website at http://www.spamhaus.org/definition.html. The first line of the Spamhous definition reads:

The word "Spam" as applied to Email means Unsolicited Bulk Email ("UBE").

It is a concern to us if you use ArcticElvis to send any unsolicited email to anyone who has not consented to receive Email from you. It is much more of a concern, and more likely to cause our system to be blocked by various ISP's, for you to send an unsolicited email to an entire list of people you don't know.

You may use ArcticElvis only to send Emails to individuals and entities that have given or give you written (including electronic) permission to send Emails to them, without subsequently withdrawing such permission and either:

(I) gave you the permission within the prior 12 months; or

(II) to whom you have sent a promotional email, which was not objected to, within the prior 12 months.

If you send Emails to a list, and you get an unusual amount of SPAM complaints (more than 1 out of 1,000), ISPs will begin blocking future emails from your company. They will also request (that's putting it mildly) that ArcticElvis shut down your account. So if you don't have proof that each recipient on your list has opted-in to receive your emails, don't import them into ArcticElvis.

By accepting our terms you agree that you will not send out emails to any 3rd party lists. It is forbidden to send out emails to purchased, rented or borrowed lists.

You should only use ArcticElvis to send newsletters, updates, and promotions to people who specifically requested email from you.

Don't use ArcticElvis to send anything offensive, to promote anything illegal, or to harass anyone. You may not send:

Also, there are some industries that send certain types of content that result in higher than normal bounce rates and abuse complaints, which in turn jeopardize the deliverability of our entire system. No offense intended, but because we must ensure the highest delivery rates possible for all our customers, we do not allow businesses that offer these types of services, products, or content:

Generally speaking, if you're in an industry that is frequently associated with spam, you know who you are (it's probably why you're reading this far, right?). We make no judgments about your line of business, but we cannot afford to risk our deliverability. In fact, most ESPs will not be able to help you. You will most likely need to look into setting up your own mail servers. The term to search on is "email delivery server." There are many industrial strength MTAs to choose from with built-in delivery and reporting tools for high-volume senders.

If you do not meet these eligibility requirements, you may not use the ArcticElvis service:

1. You must be at least 18 years of age, and be able to form legally binding contracts under applicable law.

2. You must complete the registration process and agree to the terms of this Agreement. All contact information you submit must be true, complete, and up to date.

3. ArcticElvis does reserve the right to refuse service or to terminate accounts for any user, and to change eligibility requirements at any time, in its sole discretion.

In order to be able to serve our customers with affordable prices, we have to delete old data from our servers in order to make room for new data. Below are our data archiving rules:

1. Geomap Data - Your campaign reports include a geomap that shows you where people are opening from. ArcticElvis will only store that data for your most recent 200 campaigns. Your geomap data will be archived for any campaigns older than your 200th campaign.

2. Drilldown statistics – ArcticElvis will only store detailed drilldown statistics for your most recent 200 campaigns. We will store overall statistics such as the subject of the newsletter, when you sent it, which subscriber groups you sent it to, the date you sent it, response rate, how many subscribers you sent it to, how many subscribers who opened it, and how many link clicks the newsletter resulted in. All other details will be removed.

ArcticElvis owns all the statistics generated from the system, and can use this anomously for other purposes. We will never disclose any details about who the statitic comes from to other 3rd parties.

You may not use our bandwidth for anything other than your ArcticElvis email marketing. In this regard, you agree to the following:

1. ArcticElvis provide image hosting for your email campaigns totally free. This doesn't mean you can host images on our servers for other uses, like your website. If we detect that you're using our hosting services for anything other than your email campaigns, we have the right to delete the image. Depending on your intent, we may even replace the image.

2. Not to build a campaign in ArcticElvis with tracking, then send it using some other delivery tool. Yeah, we can see when that happens. If you do that we may, and reserve the right to, shut your account down, replace all images in your campaign, and redirect all hyperlinks to point somewhere else.

You agree:

1. ArcticElvis reserves the right to change our fees at any time. We will send email notifications to users if and when we do.

2. If a user violates any of the terms of this Agreement, we reserve the right to cancel accounts, or bar access to accounts, without refund.

3. If, for some reason, we are unable to process your credit card order, we will attempt to contact you by email and we will suspend usage of your account until your payment can be processed.

As an email marketing service provider, we feel it's our duty to be extra vigilant about preventing spam related abuses. It's not just bad for the Internet community in general---if illegal and/or abusive spam gets sent from our system, we'd get blocked by all major ISPs, which would make our system useless for the thousands of users who depend on us.

It's in our best interest to keep our system clean, because our reputation and deliverability depends on it. So here's what we do:

Spammers often use anonymous email accounts to do their work. So you can't create a free trial account using some anonymous @yahoo.com, @hotmail.com, etc. email account. Spammers also hack into personal, at-home email accounts (with viruses). So we don't allow "home" accounts either. We continually add to our database of free/anonymous/personal email address services so that we can block spammers from even entering.

Free trial account users cannot sign up for a monthly membership until they've been reviewed and approved by a human at ArcticElvis. We have a list of criteria that we use to analyze new accounts to determine risk. Criteria range from domain reputation to suspicious account activity. We can often tell in the blink of an eye who's an abusive spammer.

We take abuse reports seriously at ArcticElvis. If you've received spam that you think came from an ArcticElvis user, we want to hear about it. You can report abuse by sending an email to: abuse@arcticelvis.com.

Every campaign sent from ArcticElvis has an embedded Batch ID (BID) in the email's header that makes it easy for recipients to report suspected spam.

If the campaign you received does not contain a BID, it didn't come from ArcticElvis. It was probably just spoofed to look like it came from ArcticElvis (something that inevitably happens to everyone online).

In this regard, you represent and warrant that you have collected, stored, used and transferred all data relating to any individual in accordance with all data protection laws and regulations relating to the country in which such individual resides and obtained all necessary consents to enable ArcticElvis to receive and process that data and forward communications to that individual on your behalf.

You further agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any losses, including attorney fees, resulting from your breach of any part of the foregoing warranties.
