NO FAX SPAM
No business wants to be considered Fax SPAMer, especially since it has been illegal since 2005. The Junk Fax Prevention Act passed by Congress in 2005, and signed by President Bush in July, 2005, is relatively easy to follow if you understand the rules. The main rule is that you must have an ongoing relationship with the person or business you are faxing too.
Know Who You Are Faxing To – You must have an ERB (Established Business Relationship) with companies you fax to. This means that you:
- Obtained the number directly from the recipient, not through a third party.
- If you got the number before 2005 you do not need to prove how you acquired the number. But it is still a good idea to confirm their willingness to receive messages from you.
- Inform the recipient that you will be sending them offers or advertisements.
Easy Way to Opt Out is Required – On the first page of your fax you must give a clear, conspicuous way to opt-out. On the first page you must:
Let the recipient know that they may request you no longer send them this type of fax message in the future.
- Include a phone number, email, web site address, fax number or other no-cost method o f communicating their desire to no longer receive messages. There must be multiple ways to communicate their desire to be left off your list
- The opt-out method must be available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day
- You must honor an opt-out request within 30 days or face a possible penalty
How to file a Complaint
Companies and consumers can register complaints with the FCC by filling out an online form. When a company violates the rules then the FCC can issue warning citations and impose fines.
