1. Scope and Purpose

This policy applies to commercial email, member mail, and related messaging sent through systems operated by World Traffic Services LLC ("WTS," "we," "us," or "our"), including WTS mailers, traffic exchanges, World Traffic Club, Odyssey, and other participating WTS services.

Our goal is to operate permission-based member mail systems, protect recipients, maintain deliverability, and comply with applicable anti-spam and data-protection requirements.

2. Member Mail and Consent

WTS mailers are membership-based advertising systems. Members receive mail according to the rules and settings of the applicable Site.

WTS mailer accounts use confirmed registration procedures, including email verification where required by the applicable Site.

WTS does not permit members to upload or import outside email lists into our member mailers for bulk delivery.

3. Unsubscribe and Suppression

Commercial member email sent through WTS mailers includes an unsubscribe mechanism where required. Unsubscribe requests are processed promptly and applicable suppression records are maintained to prevent prohibited future mail.

Where WTS operates a network-wide suppression system, participating Sites honor that suppression across the applicable network.

Members may not intentionally circumvent an unsubscribe request or attempt to re-subscribe another person's email address without that person's authorization.

4. Message Identification

WTS-generated commercial email must use accurate routing and identification information and must not use deceptive headers or misleading subject lines.

Commercial messages include appropriate sender identification, reply or contact information, and other disclosures required by applicable law.

5. Transactional and Service Email

Account confirmations, password or security messages, purchase receipts, subscription notices, legal notices, and other transactional or service-related messages may be sent when necessary to operate an account or provide a requested service.

Transactional messages are not intended to function as member advertising mail. Promotional content added to a transactional message may cause the message to be treated as commercial email under applicable rules.

6. Member Sending Practices

Members must comply with the sending intervals, credit requirements, frequency limits, content rules, and other controls of the applicable WTS mailer.

Attempts to bypass sending limits, rotate identities to avoid restrictions, manipulate credits, abuse multiple accounts, or otherwise circumvent mailer controls are prohibited.

7. Prohibited Lists and Addresses

Purchased, rented, scraped, harvested, or third-party email lists may not be imported into WTS member mailers for bulk mailing.

Members may not use WTS systems to send unsolicited bulk email to external lists or to addresses that were obtained without appropriate authorization.

8. Content Standards

Messages and landing pages promoted through WTS must comply with applicable law and WTS advertising rules.

Prohibited content includes illegal or fraudulent products or services, deceptive claims, malware, spyware, harmful code, harassment, hateful content, adult sexual content, intellectual-property infringement, and other content prohibited by applicable WTS rules.

Landing pages must be functional in a standard browser and must not attempt to force downloads, interfere with browser controls, or improperly break out of frames used by WTS services.

9. Authentication and Deliverability

WTS uses email authentication and deliverability practices appropriate to our infrastructure. These may include SPF, DKIM, DMARC, TLS where supported, complaint monitoring, bounce processing, suppression systems, and other reputation-protection measures.

WTS may adjust sending practices, infrastructure, limits, or delivery methods as mailbox-provider requirements and industry standards change.

10. Bounces, Complaints and Reputation

WTS monitors delivery information such as hard bounces, repeated soft bounces, unknown-user responses, spam complaints, abuse reports, and other indicators that may affect sender reputation or member safety.

Elevated bounce or complaint rates may trigger review, temporary sending restrictions, content review, or other corrective action.

Operational thresholds may vary based on mailbox-provider requirements, sending volume, message type, infrastructure, and other deliverability factors.

Repeated delivery failures, abuse reports, spam-trap activity, attempts to evade suppression, or other serious problems may result in suspension or termination.

11. Traffic Exchanges

WTS traffic exchanges primarily provide website visits through member surfing and may also send limited account, service, or promotional email.

Email sent by a traffic exchange remains subject to applicable WTS anti-spam, unsubscribe, content, and compliance requirements.

12. Centralized and Network Mail Systems

WTS may provide centralized or network features that allow eligible members to initiate advertising mail through more than one participating WTS Site.

Centralized tools remain subject to the sending limits, credit requirements, eligibility rules, suppression records, and other controls of the participating Sites. Use of a centralized interface does not permit a member to bypass individual Site restrictions.

13. Enforcement

WTS may investigate suspected violations of this policy and take action reasonably necessary to protect recipients, members, service providers, and network deliverability.

Depending on the circumstances, action may include:

• Warning the member or requesting corrective action.
• Pausing or rejecting a message, advertisement, URL, or campaign.
• Restricting mailer or advertising privileges.
• Reversing credits or benefits obtained through abuse or manipulation.
• Temporarily suspending an account.
• Permanently terminating an account for serious or repeated violations.
• Applying network-wide restrictions when necessary to protect WTS services and members.

Severe abuse may be acted upon without prior notice when immediate action is reasonably necessary to protect the network or others.

14. Compliance and Abuse Records

WTS may maintain records necessary for deliverability, security, compliance, and abuse handling. These records may include timestamps, IP addresses, account or sender identifiers, message identifiers, delivery responses, bounce information, complaint information, and unsubscribe or suppression events.

These records are handled according to the WTS Privacy Policy and may be retained for a commercially reasonable period when needed for operational, security, legal, or compliance purposes.

15. Third-Party Infrastructure

WTS may use third-party hosting, email delivery, queue management, security, monitoring, or other infrastructure providers.

WTS expects service providers used for email operations to support appropriate security, deliverability, and compliance practices.

16. Changes to This Policy

Email standards, mailbox-provider requirements, laws, and WTS systems may change over time. WTS may update this policy to reflect those changes.

Material changes will be posted with an updated "Last Updated" date and, when appropriate or legally required, additional notice may be provided.
