What You Need To Know About Third-Party Email Marketing
Can I engage an external organization to send promotional emails for my business?
As the person authorizing the message, it is important that you remember your obligations (as stipulated under the Spam Act) to avoid being held responsible for any breaches that may occur.
If you opt to use another business/organization to send promotional emails on your behalf, take the time to, first of all, find out more about the measures the organization has taken to ensure Spam Act Compliance before contracting its services. Before sending any messages, make sure that the recipients have given you the permission to do so. The third party shouldn’t send any message unless opt-in consent exists. At the same time, the third party should:
- Include accurate and precise information that identifies who you are in all its messages.
- Provide recipients an unsubscribe facility through which they can unsubscribe from your email list or database.
Here’s what you need to know when you’ve have provided your marketing company contractor a list of email addresses:
To ensure that you do not breach the Spam Act, make sure that all your message senders have taken the necessary steps to ensure consent exists before they send messages to anyone on the marketing list. For more on sending messages, check the common questions about marketing activities section. As the authorizer of any and all messages, you are responsible (legally) for proving that consent exists; however, your contractor may also by implicated for causing a message to be sent. It is important to ensure that your contractor is fully aware of their requirements under the Spam Act and that they should ensure that unsubscribe requests are all fed back to the database. Using email compliance software will save you a lot of time and hefty fines in some instances.
When using an emailing list provided by your affiliate, contractor or any other company that emails on your behalf, find out if it is Third-Party Marketing compliant to safeguard your brand!
Under such circumstances, it is vital that you stay aware of the consents/permissions that you are relying on. It isn’t enough to just assume that the contractor has permission just because they provided you a list.
- Find out where the list was sourced.
- How was the account holders’ details obtained?
- How were the opt-in consents given?
