- EMAIL AND SPAM
- Spam Mitigation.
The receipt of unsolicited or unlawful commercial electronic mail messages, otherwise known as spam ("Spam"), adversely affects the use and enjoyment of email services, as well as Xnote's business and its ability to provide email services to customers. Accordingly, You agree that Xnote may take action on Your behalf to mitigate Spam and You grant to Xnote the authority and right to opt-out and/or unsubscribe from receiving any and all Spam emails, sent by any party to Your email address(es), as determined by Xnote. You also grant and hereby assigns to Xnote the authority and right to take any other action, including legal action, to stop the mailing and/or receipt of Spam emails to Your email address(es), and seek all available legal remedies against responsible parties, including monetary damages. You understand that through this assignment of claims, You forgo Your personal right and interest to assert legal claims arising under State or Federal law, including potential claims for monetary relief, resulting from Your receipt of Spam emails. State law claims may arise under State consumer law. As examples, the Utah Consumer Sales Practices Act and the Utah Commercial Email Act, which allows for the recovery of monetary damages for certain consumer transactions and may apply to certain Spam practices. Xnote's Spam mitigation effort may require the preservation and disclosure of Your emails, as well as information contained in the emails, such as, Your name and email address. In most cases, the parties to whom the disclosure is made are already in possession of this information which they used to send You the Spam (i.e., Spam emailers, their attorneys, etc.), but disclosure may also be made to attorneys, law enforcement, the court and court personnel. Xnote will make every effort to obfuscate any personally identifying information included in the Spam emails or ensure that any information is protected by a protective order. If You do not wish to have Your email address(es) or domains included in the Spam mitigation effort, or do not desire to assign Your right to claims to Xnote, it is Your responsibility to contact Xnote at legal@xnote.com, Subject Line: "OPT-OUT." You may request information from Xnote regarding any action taken by Xnote described above, which information will not be unreasonably withheld.
- Zero Tolerance.
To both aid in the fight against Spam, and to keep Xnote's mail servers off Internet blacklists, Xnote has zero tolerance in regards to Your sending unsolicited (email/fax/pages/news) messages, or bulk messages (i.e., more than 10 messages containing substantially similar, commercial content in less than one minute). If Xnote receives complaints about Your spamming, Your account will be canceled unless You can prove the recipient requested bulk email from You. You may also face legal action and confess to liquidated damages in the amount of $50 per incident (i.e., one email message constituting one incident) and $100 per hour per employee whose time was used to address the issue. While bulk email is the primary concern, Xnote's Spam policy applies to all other forms of bulk communications.
- HIPAA
Xnote's email service is not HIPAA compliant. HIPAA compliance will require additional add-on features.
- INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
- For purposes of this Agreement, "Content and Material" is defined as any information, communications, software, published works, photos, video, graphics, music, sounds, code, or other material that can be viewed or heard by users while using Xnote's website or services, and which was created by Xnote.
