TCPA & CTIA Compliance

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), is a federal law that regulates messaging and sales promotions by phone. It includes the following important points.

  1. You must obtain express written consent before sending promotional messages.

– Messages soliciting anything requires proof of consent by the recipient. SMS opt-in using a mobile keyword and online sign-up forms generally provide evidence of consent. Written consent may be paper sign-up forms expressly indicating SMS messaging content.

– Voice broadcasting with pre-recorded messages is a form of messaging. Requiring a caller to press the number 1, for example, provides express consent to receive the voice broadcast message.

– Internal communications, emergency alerts, etc. require written or documented verbal consent.

2. Promotional and solicitation messages may be sent only from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., recipient’s time.

3. Automated or manual messaging systems must provide for opt-outs by any reasonable means, and senders may not restrict or prevent opt-out methods.

4. TCPA violations are subject to a fine of up to $1,500 per each message sent per recipient for every occurrence.

Spam Policy

My Tech Guru defines SPAM as one or more commercial or noncommercial unsolicited email, SMS/MMS text, or voice messages sent, or attempted to be sent, to anyone.

The penalties for sending unsolicited email, SMS/MMS text, or voice (“SPAM”) messages are potentially massive. My Tech Guru has developed the following “Spam Policy” to protect our Clients, Users, and Participants from unnecessary disruptions of service, and this “Spam Policy” is incorporated into the My Tech Guru Terms of Service.

My Tech Guru prohibits the use of an autoresponder service in any manner associated with the transmission, distribution or delivery of any unsolicited commercial or unsolicited non-commercial email, SMS/MMS text, or voice message, also known as Spam, that mentions anything in relation to My Tech Guru. You may not use any My Tech Guru or Site Steering service to send Spam. You may not deliver Spam, or cause Spam to be delivered to any of My Tech Guru’s or Site Steering’s services, subscribers, customers, or subscribers of customers.

While My Tech Guru is Internet and marketing-friendly, it is important to understand that violation of our Spam Policies will not be tolerated, regardless of reason or excuse. If you violate the My Tech Guru Spam Policy and send Spam email, SMS/MMS text, or voice messages, even if My Tech Guru or Site Steering services were not directly used (i.e. the Spam contains links or any information that could lead the recipient to My Tech Guru services, products, or web pages), you will:

– have your account terminated immediately without refund or notice.
– be charged a $25,000.00 penalty fee.
– be reported to your own ISP as a Spammer.
– be reported to any and all government entities with proper jurisdiction.

Please report suspected incidents of SPAM to our abuse department.
