In addition, affiliates may not advertise in any way that effectively conceals or misrepresents their identity, their domain name or their return e-mail address. Mailings are acceptable only if the recipient is already a customer or subscriber to the Affiliate’s services. In addition, recipients must have the option of removing themselves from future mailings. (See CANN-SPAM act of 2003) Newsgroup postings are acceptable only in newsgroups that specifically welcome commercial messages. When in doubt, consult the newsgroup FAQ section or ask the moderators to be sure you message is acceptable in that newsgroup. Affiliates must also clearly represent themselves and their websites as independent entities from MAGSN.COM. In any forum or media, affiliates are expected to honor the advertising practices and restrictions that are commonly considered acceptable by its audience. Failure to honor this code of conduct can result in immediate termination of an Affiliate's account, and loss of all commissions earned.
