Email Account Safety – a Series
This is the final in our series on what to watch for and how to protect yourself from online scams.
How to Protect Yourself
Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) is a federal law designed to give Canadians more control over the commercial electronic messages (CEMs) they receive.
A commercial electronic message is any message sent to an electronic address that has as its purpose, or one of its purposes, the encouragement of participation in a commercial activity, including an offer to purchase a product or service.
A commercial electronic message (CEM) includes communication sent by email, text message, Instant messenger or on social media.
Hay follows CASL
To ensure that Hay is compliant with CSAL, the following 3 requirements are incorporated into our current practices: Obtain customer consent, clearly identify the sender and provide easy-to-use unsubscribe options.
- Implied Consent: (When the sender has an existing business relationship with the person to whom the message is sent.) Communications are only sent to Hay customers in our billing system and those who have not unsubscribed from our marketing emails.
- Clear identification on our marketing material.
- Easy to use unsubscribe method provided at the bottom of marketing material or the customer can call the office to be unsubscribed.
