Anti-Spam Policy

Horizon Technology Group, Inc. (“HTG”) does not tolerate the transmission of spam. We monitor all traffic to and from our web servers for indications of spamming and maintain a spam abuse complaint department to register allegations of spam abuse. Customers suspected to be using HTG products and services for the purpose of sending spam are fully investigated. Once HTG determines there is a problem with spam, HTG will take the appropriate action according to our “User Agreement” and “AUP” to resolve the situation.

SPAM Defined

We define spam as the sending of “Unsolicited Commercial Email” (UCE), “Unsolicited Bulk Email” (UBE) or “Unsolicited Facsimiles” (Fax), which is email or facsimile sent to recipients as an advertisement or otherwise, without first obtaining prior confirmed consent to receive these communications from the sender. This can include, but is not limited to, the following:

  1. Email Messages

  2. Newsgroup postings

  3. Windows system messages

  4. Pop-up messages (aka "adware" or "spyware" messages)

  5. Instant messages (using GoogleTalk, MSN, Yahoo or other instant messenger programs)

  6. Online chat room advertisements

  7. Guestbook or Website Forum postings

  8. Facsimile Solicitations


What is and isn't Allowed

We will not allow our servers and services to be used for any of the purposes described above. In order to use our products and services, you must not only abide by all applicable laws and regulations, which include the Can-Spam Act of 2003 and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, but you must also abide by HTG's no spam policies. Commercial advertising and/or bulk emails or faxes may only be sent to recipients who have already "opted-in" to receive messages from the sender specifically. They must include a legitimate return address and reply-to address, the sender's physical address, and an opt-out method in the footer of the email or fax. Upon request by HTG, conclusive proof of opt-in may be required for an email address or fax number.


What We Do

If HTG determines the services in question are being used in association with spam, HTG will re-direct, suspend, or cancel any web site hosting, domain registration, email boxes or other applicable services for a period of no less than two (3) days. The registrant or customer will be required to respond by email to HTG stating that they will cease to send spam and/or have spam sent on their behalf. HTG will require a non-refundable reactivation fee to be paid before the site, email boxes and/or services are reactivated. In the event HTG determines the abuse has not stopped after services have been restored the first time, HTG may terminate the hosting and email boxes associated with domain name in question. To Report Spam Abuse: We encourage all customers and recipients of email generated from our products and services to report suspected spam. Suspected abuse can be reported by email to our Spam Abuse Complaint Department on the Web.
