Deep Linking - definition, information, sites, articles. on 2009-11-05
-
The legality of deep linking has been called into question in several
lawsuits involving well-known corporations. Opponents of deep links -- typically
large corporations -- argue that deep linking unfairly eliminates the ability of
the home page to contribute to brand building and ad serving functions.
-
Proponents of deep linking contend that the ability to link freely is central
to the philosophy behind the public Internet. On a practical note, they also
argue that a deep link is better than no link at all, and may even be more
profitable than a home page link, especially if the target site has a poor
navigational structure.

Email Marketing – When to use opt-in and when to use opt-out | OUT-LAW.COM by Pinsent Masons LLP on 2009-11-04
-
To help control the increased use of email for direct marketing, and in part to
deal with the risk of spam the EU issued in 2002 a directive on privacy and
electronic communications
-
The regulations make a distinction between individual subscribers (e.g.
john.smith@hotmail.com) and corporate
subscribers (e.g.
john.smith@company-name.com). This
paper will concentrate on individual subscribers, as it is here that the
Regulations have the most significant impact

Understanding the meaning of "prior consent" is the key to understanding what
procedures are necessary when collecting personal data in order to be able to
send email marketing
-
An "opt-in" generally refers to a tick box which, if filled in by the user,
indicates positively that they would like to be contacted by a particular form
of communication
-
Unless the user ticks the box then the organisation cannot use their details
for the form of marketing listed.
-
This is in contrast with an "opt-out", where the default position is that the
user will be contacted by that form of marketing, unless they tick the box to
indicate that they would prefer not to be.
-
Another equally acceptable practice would be to collect the customer's details,
at the same time presenting them with a data protection notice which is drafted
to state that by providing their details the user consents to the receipt of
unsolicited marketing emails. Key to this is the way in which the consent
statement is drafted. It must be a positive statement, the effect of which is to
be considered as positive consent by the user
-
At the same time the user must be provided with an opportunity to opt-out of
their details being used for this method. The best way of achieving this is to
include an opt-out tick box as a part of the data protection notice. Failing to
opt-out alone is unlikely to constitute valid consent, however, in context, it
can indicate that consent has been given if a clear prominent message is
provided, in the data protection notice or otherwise, such as, 'By submitting
your details, you are indicating your consent to receiving marketing emails from
us, unless you have ticked the box below to indicate your objection to receiving
these messages'.
-
Prior consent is not the same as opt-in, and it is possible to use a properly
drafted consent statement in the data protection notice along with an opt-out
box, and still comply with the Privacy and Electronic Communications
Regulations.
-
Include a short statement at the point at which the user submits their email or
telephone address to the effect that these may be used for marketing
communications unless the user expressly requests that they are not
-
Make sure that the data protection notice is properly drafted, and includes a
statement to the effect that by providing email and telephone numbers the user
consents to their being marketed to by these methods. The drafting of this is
very important, as it must be written in such a way as to be considered active
consent of the user. It should be provided before the point at which the user clicks to
proceed with the registration/transaction (for example before the "submit"
button).
-
Following this, include an opt-out box, which allows the user to select to
opt-out of email marketing communications.
-
Ensure that all marketing emails provide an easy and free means by which the
user can opt-out of future marketing, and make sure that if they use this
opt-out their request is adhered to in all future marketing.
