UK "spam" law: need to include unsubscribe link in
Posted: Mon Mar 08, 2004 5:14 am
Question regarding the UK only is: do you know if it is required by law of the mailing-list maintainer to have an unsubscribe link in emails sent to subscribers of a mailing list?
The only thing I could find regarding in the text of law (passed in early December 2003) was:
http://www.legislation.hmso.gov.uk/si/s ... 032426.htm
(6) Where a request has been made under paragraph (5) for data to be withdrawn from or corrected in a directory, that request shall be treated as having no application in relation to an edition of a directory that was produced before the producer of the directory received the request.
I was under the impression that a mailing list provider/maintainer had to have an unsubscribe link in emails sent out to its subscribers.
Could anyone point me towards a more enlightening resource?
