  • Do not use automatic calling systems that work without human participation, electronic mail or fax machines, through which individual contact with the recipient is possible, to send a commercial notice unless the recipient has given free and unambiguous consent beforehand (article 9, paragraph 1).
  • You need no consent to use e-mail addresses you obtained from recipients in your commercial transactions for further commercial notices, but only about your similar goods or services, only if the recipient did not object at the outset, and only if every later notice gives a clear free-of-charge chance to refuse further use of the address (article 9, paragraph 2).
  • For other communication through publicly available electronic communications services, send a commercial notice only if the recipient has given free and unambiguous consent beforehand (article 9, paragraph 3).
  • Do not send a commercial notice by electronic mail or other communication through publicly available electronic communications services with an invalid e-mail address, or an invalid telephone or fax number to which the recipient could send a request to stop the communication, or while disregarding the recipient's refusal of further notices (article 9, paragraph 4).
  • The bans and restrictions in article 9, paragraphs 1 to 3 apply to commercial notices sent to natural persons (article 9, paragraph 6).
  • Make every commercial notice clearly recognizable as one, make clear the person on whose behalf it is distributed, state the offer and the terms of receiving the service precisely, make discounts, bonuses and prizes and the terms of receiving them clear, make promotional contests, lotteries and games and their participation terms clear and easy to find, and give the recipient the chance to refuse further commercial notices (article 8, paragraph 1).
