CAN-SPAM and Email Harvesting:
CAN-SPAM prohibits email harvesting, which is defined as obtaining email addresses from a website using automated means when the website has a notice stating that the operator of the website will not transfer email addresses for the purpose of allowing others to send emails to the address. Our ID Resolution Partner ensures that the Technology does not collect or provide email addresses from websites that prohibit email address harvesting.

Our ID Resolution Partner ensures that the Technology does not collect or provide email addresses from websites that prohibit email address harvesting.
Opt-Out – Not Opt-In:
While some jurisdictions outside of the United States require an affirmative opt-in to send marketing or commercial emails, the US is an opt-out jurisdiction since the passage of CAN-SPAM. This means marketing emails can be sent to recipients unless and until they have opted out of receiving marketing emails from the sender. Our ID Resolution Partner adheres to this by ensuring that users of the Technology can send emails to acquired addresses provided the recipient has not previously opted-out.

Legal Compliance:
The sender of marketing emails acquired using the Technology should include an unsubscribe link or other opt-out mechanism in all marketing emails and promptly honor all opt-outs.

Our ID Resolution Partner ensures that both the company whose product is promoted and the company that actually sends the message may be held legally responsible.

This includes content on a website. A transactional or relationship message—email that facilitates an agreed-upon transaction or updates a customer in an existing business relationship—may not contain false or misleading routing information but is otherwise exempt from most provisions of the Act.

California Privacy Laws: Understanding the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA)
Disclaimer: This summary is intended solely for informational purposes and is not intended to constitute legal advice or to create an attorney-client relationship between any law firm and any reader. This summary does not cover all aspects of the CPRA. For specific legal advice, please consult with your attorney.
Introduction to the CPRA: The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), an amendment and renaming of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), was approved by California voters in November 2020. It enhances privacy protections for consumers, adding new requirements for businesses regarding the handling of personal information.
Key Changes and Requirements under the CPRA:
Opt-Out Rights for Targeted Advertising: The CPRA expands consumers' rights to opt-out of the sale of their personal information to include the right to opt-out of sharing their information for cross-contextual behavioral advertising. This applies unless the information involves minors under 16, for whom stricter opt-in rules apply.
Disclosure and Opt-Out Requirements: If personal information is used for targeted advertising, businesses must inform consumers and provide at least two methods for opting out, one of which must be an interactive web form. Our ID Resolution Partner complies with these requirements by ensuring transparent notification and opt-out mechanisms are in place.
CPRA Notices: Businesses must display a clear and conspicuous link titled “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” on the homepage of their websites, facilitating consumer opt-out requests. Our ID Resolution Partner ensures all notices are compliant with CPRA standards, clearly informing users of their rights and the purposes for collecting, selling, or sharing personal information.
Vendor Agreements and Sharing of Information: The CPRA requires specific contractual terms between businesses and their vendors when personal information is involved, particularly in contexts that might be considered a sale or sharing under the new definitions provided by the CPRA.
Definition of Personal Information Sales and Sharing:
Sale of Personal Information: The CPRA defines a sale broadly to include any exchange of personal information for monetary or other valuable consideration.
Sharing for Advertising: The term "sharing" refers to disclosing personal information to third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising, regardless of monetary exchange.
Opt-Out of Profiling and Automated Decision Making: The CPRA provides mechanisms to opt-out of profiling and automated decision-making processes, with additional regulations potentially being established by the California Privacy Protection Agency.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Applicability: The CPRA applies to any for-profit entity that collects and sells California consumers' personal information and either has annual revenues over $25 million, handles the personal data of more than 100,000 consumers or households, or earns more than half of its annual revenue from selling consumers' personal data.
Non-Profit and Health Information Exemptions: Non-profit organizations and health providers and insurers that are covered under HIPAA are exempt from the CPRA.
Rights Under the CPRA: Consumers have rights to access, correct, delete, and restrict the use of their personal information. They also have the right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of their personal data.
Privacy Policy Requirements: Businesses must update their privacy policies to reflect the rights and processes established under the CPRA, including detailed descriptions of consumer rights and the categories of personal information being collected, sold, or disclosed.
Legal Considerations: Businesses must ensure compliance with the CPRA to avoid potential legal penalties and to uphold consumer trust. Regular reviews and updates of privacy practices and policies in line with evolving regulations are recommended.
Conclusion and Additional Resources: For more information on complying with the CPRA, or if you have specific questions about how it may impact your business practices, consult legal professionals or visit the official California Privacy Protection Agency website.
