Last revised: August 4, 2022.

This Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) describes activities that are not allowed in connection with your use of the Mailzy Services (“Mailzy” or “the Services”) provided by Lauyan Software (“Lauyan” or “we”). The AUP is incorporated by reference in your Agreement with Lauyan.

The Internet is still evolving, and the ways in which the Internet may be abused are also still evolving. Therefore, we may from time to time amend this AUP to further detail or describe reasonable restrictions on your use of the Service by publishing a revised version of the AUP, or in the event of a material adverse change to the AUP.

If you breach this AUP we may limit, suspend, or terminate your account in accordance with our Terms and Conditions. We may intercept or block any content or traffic belonging to you or to users where the Services are being used unlawfully or not in accordance with this AUP.

1. Requirements.

Customer will follow these guidelines when sending emails using Mailzy:

1a – Bounce and complaint rates to remain within these thresholds:

A bounce occurs when an email is sent to an address that doesn't exist. A complaint occurs when a recipient identifies an email that you sent as spam. Email providers interpret a high bounce or complaint rate as a sign that a sender isn't properly managing their recipient list, and that the sender might be sending unsolicited email.

We reserves the right to update the parameters of the acceptable sending threshold without prior notice.

1b – Acquiring or sending to a third-party mailing list is prohibited. Use of contact lists that are bought, rented or scraped from third-parties is prohibited by law in most countries, and is absolutely prohibited on Mailzy servers.

1c – Emails can only be sent where permission has been expressly obtained in nature, and can only be sent to recipients who have granted clear, explicit and provable consent to receive communication. This consent should be granted through a confirmed single or double opt-in system that clearly expresses the topic of the subscription on an online or offline form via an unmarked by default checkbox.

1d – Proof of consent must be provided in the event of an escalated abuse complaint. We take escalated abuse complaints received from recipients very seriously. At any given moment, you must be able to provide information regarding all email addresses to which you’ve sent emails through the platform (including the basis of the obtained consent, when and how the email address was collected, and any other pertain proof of legal permission to contact the recipients).

1e – An unsubscribe link must be included in every marketing email campaign. All marketing campaigns must include a clear and concise link for recipients to easily opt-out of receiving future communication. The link must be easy for anyone to recognize, read, and understand. You must honor unsubscribe requests without undue delay.

1f – Sender name and status must be clearly communicated in every email message. “To” and “Reply-To” fields must accurately and clearly identify the sender’s domain name and email address. The “Reply-To“ email address will be your Mailzy account address and must successfully receive emails.
