WhatsMySalary.com is committed to permission-based
email marketing practices, and as a result has
established this no-tolerance Anti-Spam Policy.
WhatsMySalary.com will occasionally update this
Anti-Spam Policy.
Spam is commercial email or unsolicited bulk email,
including “junk mail”, which has not been requested
by the recipient. It is intrusive and often
irrelevant or offensive and it wastes valuable
resources. Spam messages are the opposite of
permission-based email which are normally
anticipated, personal, relevant and/or associated
with a pre-existing business or personal
relationship. Inappropriate newsgroup activities
consisting of excessive posting of the same
materials to several newsgroups are also deemed to
be spam.
Customers of WhatsMySalary.com have agreed in their
contract to comply with this Anti-Spam Policy.
Specifically, each customer agrees not to use the
WhatsMySalary.com services to send unsolicited
email or bulk email, whether or not for commercial
purposes. WhatsMySalary.com reserves the right to
determine in its sole discretion what constitutes
actionable spam, as well as what measures are
necessary in response to such spam activities.
