eMark-it® is a permission-based email marketing platform. It is designed to let organizations send emails to people who want to receive those emails. emark-it's permission policy is part of the Terms of Use agreed to by every emark-it customer, and it appears as a renminder on emark-its import process every time new lists are added. It goes beyond the stipulations set forth in the United States' Can-Spam legislation and is as follows:

To send an email to someone using emark-it, that recipient must be: *Someone who has specifically asked to receive your emails by opting in or signing up in some way *Someone who has given you his or her email address, knowing you'll use it, or *Someone who has bought a product or service from you in the past 18 months.

While many services allow you to purchase or otherwise obtain a list of addresses of people you've never met and send them emails, eMark-it® does not. We do not rent, sell, or otherwise share our lists or those of our customers, and we do not allow any eMark-it® customer to rent or purchase lists and send them using the eMark-it® network.

In order to create and administer your eMark-it® account, we explicitly ask for and collect certain information about you and your comapny, including financial information used to verify identity and bill for services. Under no circumstances will we share your (or any other member's) personal information with any third party, except in the circumstance where the requesting organization is a high-powered government agency with the authority to requisite threats of long-term jail sentences to make us share that personal information.

We collect certain aggregate information about our customers and use this information to improve our services and the marketing of our services. We may also report such information-always in aggregate form and never in a way that could identify individuals-to third parties, such as newspapers or industry observers or potentail customers and partners.

Your customer lists, email content and response data remains private and confidential. Though we reserve the right to monitor your lists, content and the response data from time to time to make sure they comply with our Terms of Use, we will never share, sell or rent your customer data to anyone for any reason.

eMark-it® adheres to the data privacy principles of the Safe Harbor program, designed to provide U.S. companies with guidance on how to provide adequate protection for personal data from Europe as required by the European Union's Directive on Data Protection.

Just as we ask and expect you to respect the in-box of your customers, we will do our best to respect yours. The only emails you'll receive from us will be emails related to your account or your use of eMark-it®. We might alert you to new features or site enhancements or check in to see how your last campaign went. Some of the emails may be directed to everyone, and some of them may be written just for you. In the future, we may also ask if you'd like to receive information from our partners. We do not have partners, and until we do, we will not ask.

You are asked to supply certain credit card and billing information in order to purchase eMark-it® services. That information is transferred, using the most secure transmission technology, to a trusted third party for processing. The information is then encrypted using Data Encryption Standard 3 (Triple DES) and securely stored to handle your transactions. Your credit card information is not stored on the eMark-it® website or in our database.

Your privacy, and the privacy of the people on both sides of eMark-it® emails is extrememly important to us and we'll do everything we can to protect it. Direct any questions you may have regarding this Privacy Policy to service@emark-it.com . If you suspect our privacy and permission policy has been abused in any way, please notify us at service@emark-it.com.
