Anti-Spam Policy
This Anti-Spam Policy applies to all messages sent or received on the eMail@Century21.com services. eMail@Century21.com does not provide anonymous email services. All messages are sent with the user's Internet Protocol (IP) address in the message header, which allows us to track the source of any email message sent from our services.
eMail@Century21.com does not allow its users to be subjected to, nor does it tolerate its users sending, unsolicited bulk or unsolicited commercial email, also known as "spam". Sending spam from eMail@Century21.com's email services is in violation of this Anti-Spam Policy and eMail@Century21.com's Email Terms and Conditions.
Occasionally, individuals that do not have a eMail@Century21.com email account will send spam and set the 'From' and/or 'Reply To' field in their email software to point to a eMail@Century21.com email account, also known as "forging". The result is that it appears to the recipient that the spam is sent by a eMail@Century21.com user, when in fact, it is not. eMail@Century21.com investigates complaints resulting from spam sent and received on the eMail@Century21.com services to evaluate whether the subscriber is the true sender of the message, but has limited control over forging due to the nature of the email software.
