| 16 | +<Message type="note"> |
| 17 | + The content of this page is a word-for-word transcription of Scaleway Transaction Email's official Anti-spam policy. |
| 18 | +</Message> |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +By using service “Transactional Email” or “TEM”, you acknowledge and agree with the following obligations described hereinafter. With the “TEM” service you can only send Transactional Emails. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +## What is a Transactional Email? |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +A Transactional Email is an automatic email sent to a single recipient to confirm a transaction or an event (for instance: password recovery, e-bills, billing information, delivery updates,...). |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +Unlike marketing emails, Transactional Email is triggered by events, interactions or preferences within a service or application rather than by a company's marketing campaign. For this reason, Transactional Emails are also called “triggered emails”. |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +These emails are mainly “operational” and provide an update to a request made by the recipient. In other words, these are emails that the recipient expects to receive and in many cases the recipient updates its inbox until he receives them. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +Unlike marketing emails, which are mass distributions of the same marketing message to multiple recipients simultaneously, Transactional Emails are personalized emails sent to a specific recipient in response to event it have triggered. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +n order to send Transactional Email for the use of your application or your service, your processing of personal data is based on a legal basis in accordance with the application regulations (such as legitimate interest). |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +## What is “spam”? |
| 35 | +A spam is unsolicited or unwanted email, most often of a commercial nature. In other words, it is any email sent to a recipient who has not given you its explicit prior consent or where you have no other legal basis to contact this recipient by email. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +## What kind of recipient is not appropriate for sending emails with TEM service? |
| 38 | +You cannot send emails with TEM service to an email address that you have bought, lent, rented or otherwise acquired from a third party. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +If you send marketing emails such as a newsletter, or mass mailings, you must use other solutions or service adapted to this kind of email. In these cases, it is necessary to obtain the prior consent of the recipients. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +## What are the consequences of not complying with this policy? |
| 43 | +In accordance with our Terms of Service, in the event that we notice an irregular use of the TEM service and in particular when your domain name is registered in a black list or you have a high bounce rate, we reserve the right to suspend the service and your account. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +Scaleway may, at its sole discretion, to decide whether bounce rate and/or third-party spam complaints are considered high. We may also require you to provide evidence that you have a legal basis under applicable law and suspend your account if you do not. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +In case of suspension of the service, you acknowledge that no refund of amounts previously paid will be made. |
