Spam Policy
Dace Web Solutions maintains a zero-tolerance stance towards spam and treats any spam-related issues with utmost seriousness, adhering to stringent spam policy guidelines.
Employing state-of-the-art Antivirus and Antispam filters on our servers, we consistently update our security measures.
Our comprehensive filtering service includes Mailscanner, SpamAssassin, ClamAV, DCC, SARE, Dictionary Attack ACL, and Vipuls Razor.
​
Spam constitutes approximately 35 percent of received messages, with nearly one in every hundred spam emails carrying a virus, resulting in potential global costs reaching billions of dollars annually.
The removal of a virus from a single PC can incur costs exceeding $600, while server cleanup costs surpass $50,000. Each incoming email undergoes processing through our filtering service, boasting a 95 percent accuracy rate in virus detection.
​
Dace's Spam Policy is unwaveringly strict, collaborating with host servers, external entities, and internal components to combat spamming and spam abuse. Individuals engaging in such activities will face legal consequences.
We align with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, prohibiting customers, links, or affiliated partners from participating in spamming activities. In accordance with FTC regulations, offenders may face fines up to $11,000, with reports submitted to relevant authorities.
All emails from Dace Web Solutions include a legitimate return address, reply-to address, opt-out method in the footer, and the sender's physical address. Informational emails and advertisements are dispatched only to recipients who have given explicit consent.
