We take the issue of unwanted email seriously therefore we provide the necessary tools to help assure and enforce the opt–in and opt–out nature of the service. Visitors may opt–in from the website or from the “subscribe” link provided on the bottom of each electronic newsletter. Each visitor that opts in is sent notification by email and is given the option to unsubscribe just in case that they have been subscribed in error or without their consent. Each electronic newsletter message that we send has an “unsubscribe” link. This gives the customer the option to be removed from the subscriber database so that they do not receive future mailings. We also provide opt–out protection so that when an email address is removed, the system remembers that you have opted–out and prevents you from being mistakenly re–added to the subscriber list.
We do not condone nor support UCE (Unsolicited Commercial Email) or SPAM. We work with all of our customers to make sure they understand and abide by common principals of email protocol and “opt–in” policy.
