Spam Policy
Last Updated March 1, 2007
Thunk, Inc. (“Thunk”) specifically does not authorize the use of its proprietary or leased computers, servers, routers and computer network (the "Thunk Network") to accept, transmit or distribute unsolicited bulk e-mail sent from the Internet to Thunkdesign.com, Thunkinc.com, honeypitch.com, blinkpitch.com, or other domains owned, hosted or managed by Thunk, or Thunk subscribers. It is also a violation of Thunk's policy, and the law, to send or cause to be sent to, or through, the Thunk Network e-mail that makes use of or contains invalid, deceptive, or forged headers, invalid or non-existent domain names or other means of deceptive addressing.
Thunk considers such e-mail to be unlawful and a violation of its policy, and any attempt to send or cause such e-mail to be sent to, or through, the Thunk Network is unauthorized. Moreover, any e-mail relayed from a third party's mail servers without the permission of that third party, or any e-mail that hides or obscures, or attempts to hide or obscure, the source of an e-mail also constitutes an unauthorized use of the Thunk Network. Thunk does not authorize the harvesting or collection of screen names from the Thunkdesign.com or Printspot.com for the purpose of sending unsolicited e-mail. Any such action also constitutes violation of Thunk's policy.
Thunk reserves the right to take all legal and technical steps available to prevent unsolicited bulk e-mail or other unauthorized e-mail from originating from, entering, utilizing or remaining within the Thunk Network. Such action may include, without limitation, the use of filters or other network devices to scan e-mail transmitted from or to the Thunk Network and prosecution of offenders through criminal or civil proceedings. Nothing in this policy shall be construed to grant any right to transmit or send e-mail to, or through, the Thunk Network, and in no event shall any failure by Thunk to enforce this policy constitute a waiver of Thunk's rights.
Unauthorized use of the Thunk Network in connection with the transmission of unsolicited bulk e-mail, including the transmission of counterfeit e-mail, may result in civil and criminal penalties against the sender, including those provided by the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (18 U.S.C. 1030 et seq.); and various state laws, including the California's anti-spam legislation (California Bus. & Prof. Code 17529 et seq.)
