III. Services provided
- Omnivery Service. We provide the Omnivery Service, an online message transport platform with API and SMTP submission that enables you to communicate directly with Recipients and track the efficiency of these actions (hereinafter the “Omnivery Service”).
- Additional Services. We also provide, based on your individual orders approved by us, the Additional Services.
- Specification. The Services are described in detail in the Specification.
IV. Registration and conclusion of the Agreement
- Initiation of Services provision. To initiate the provision of Services to you, you must conclude the Agreement with us and consent to these Terms.
- Agreement conclusion. The Agreement is concluded at the moment of its signing by the second contracting party.
- Access credentials. When the Agreement is concluded, you will be provided with initial access credentials for the use of the Services. You will be able to add an unlimited number of access credentials of different types directly from the Omnivery Service user interface. Please ensure confidentiality of these credentials, we have limited options to protect you against their misuse. For this reason, we assume no responsibility for the misuse of your username and password by a third person and encourage you to enable Two-Factor Authentication for your account.
V. Spam prevention
Spam prohibition. You must ensure that the Messages do not qualify as the Spam and meet the industry standards and recommendations.
No purchased contact lists or generated addresses. Most laws prohibit sending of Messages to contacts with which you do not have any prior interactions. More importantly, this is a bad practice from e-mail marketing point of view, as sending Messages to such contacts has significant negative impact on not only your reputation, but could also affect all our customers. For this reason, you may not send Messages to contacts obtained from purchased or leased address lists, to randomly generated email addresses or to contacts obtained from the Internet or to obscure origin of these addresses or subject, source email address or content of the Messages.
Compliance with statistical parameters. You must ensure that the Messages will be in compliance with the current direct marketing best-practices and to fulfil the following statistical parameters, which will be monitored by us:
Measured indicators Allowed Value Description Bounced messages < 5 % Ratio of bounced addresses from the total number of Messages sent within a rolling 1 month period Unsubscribes < 1 % Ratio of Recipients unsubscribed within a rolling 1 month period Suppressed messages < 1 % Ratio of Recipients suppressed on message submission Spam complaints < 0.1 % Ratio of Spam complaints within a 1 month period Spam trap hits 0 Number of Messages delivered to pristine spam traps Your reputation as a sender is highly impacted by these indicators and affects the deliverability of your Messages. We want to make sure that you follow best practices and understand the impacts of exceeding these thresholds. In case of parameter “Spam trap hits” we rely on monitoring from spam trap providers. While we understand you may hit a typo trap or recycled trap at times, we want to make sure your lists are clean and there are not hits to pristine traps. Hit of these pristine spam traps is subject to a contractual penalty in the amount specified by the Specification. This is our incentive for you to keep your lists clean.
If you do not comply with any of the Measured indicators, we may terminate an Agreement unless you will demonstrate a sufficient effort to comply with set values.
Compliance across platforms and senders. Your reputation is built across all the services you use and third parties that send on your behalf. We want to make sure you follow best practices across the board to provide the deliverability you expect from us. For these reasons, all limitations and prohibitions on sending Marketing Messages contained in this Article V. “Spam prevention” apply also to any Marketing Messages sent directly by you through other platforms or by any third party on behalf of you.
VI. Deliverability
- Investigation and limitations. We need to make sure your Messages get the best deliverability possible. Our team may need to investigate messages that trigger our detection criteria and suspend delivery of such Messages during investigation. This also helps protect you from unknowingly sending phishing or other harmful messages, which could have negative legal consequences on you. The investigation may result in Messages being rejected but we will let you know if that is the case. In some cases the Messages may need to be rate limited to better meet the limit of receiving parties. For these reasons, we may apply rate limits or suspend message delivery to review the content of the Messages in order to verify compliance with the Applicable Laws and the Terms.
- Marketing SMS sending. Different providers in different countries have different policies governing Marketing Messages in the form of SMS. In general most of the providers only permit Marketing Messages in the form of SMS during workdays and only working hours. You must ensure that the Marketing Messages in the form of an SMS message will be sent to the Recipients only during working hours of the Recipient‘s local time. Outside of this time period, you may only send Transactional Messages in the form of an SMS message, as Transactional Messages in the form of SMS are not limited in this way.
- Removing Messages and suspension of Services. We always care about protecting you as a sender - imagine your account gets hijacked or a disgruntled employee uses your API credentials and starts sending Spam or other harmful Messages. We need to have the power to remove such Messages from the queue and even disable Services on the account to prevent such abuse. As a result, if we identify that the Messages or their content are, according to our opinion, inconsistent with the rules contained in these Terms, we may (i) remove such Messages, (ii) remove such content from the Messages, (iii) disable Services on an offending sending domain, or (iv) completely stop providing Services to you. We will however make sure to contact you and let you know what is going on.
- Data size limits. Every channel and every provider has certain limits we must obey. For example Gmail service may crop messages that are too long or exceed 120 KB in size. Also, while Transactional Messages may contain attachments and have a size of up to 10 MB, Marketing Messages must be much smaller, preferably under 120 KB, but we allow up to 400 KB. For other channels the limits are even more strict and may differ by network, e.g. SMS has length limits depending on encoding. For these reasons, we may set limits on the Message size, Message length, sending rate and number of Messages allowed, depending on the sending domain, the Message channel (email, SMS, RCS, Viber) as well as the Message content (transactional, commercial).
- No guarantee of delivery. We are doing our best to deliver your Messages but ultimately we can’t guarantee the delivery as that is out of our hands. It’s up to the receiver’s decision (mailbox provider, mobile network, third-party filtering services etc.) how will they handle each individual Message. This means that we will send Messages that comply with these Terms through the Omnivery Service, but we are not responsible for their delivery to Recipients. We are not responsible for Message delays or Message non-delivery caused by third parties.
- No promotion by affiliate partners. Affiliate partners can have negative impact on your reputation if they send on your behalf. In many cases affiliate partners use scraped or bought lists of contacts to increase their reach and their revenue share from you. It’s important that you ban affiliate partners from sending on your behalf or impersonate your brand to prevent reputational impacts. As a result, if you run an affiliate or a partner program, you must ensure that terms of this program expressly prohibit promotion of your brand, business, website or goods and services by sending any marketing messages by electronic means by the affiliate partners.
- No liability for rejection of Messages. Receiving services like Gmail, Yahoo and Microsoft have different requirements on senders in terms of rates or message limits we have to respect. We can’t be liable for Messages rejected or “Spam foldered” by the receiving service as we have no control over their decision-making. For these reasons, we will not be liable for any damage (material or non-material) or any other harm incurred by you in connection with the different delivery terms of the individual email service providers or in the context of changes in these conditions.
VII. Compulsory content of Messages
- Content requirements. This Article contains a list of compulsory content of Messages, divided by type of the Messages. Information to be provided for the Recipient according to this Article must be clear and legible and their reading must not require any activity on the part of the Recipient (e.g. loading the image, opening the linked page, etc.).
- General requirements. You must ensure that all Messages include the following:
- designation of the person who has ordered the distribution of the Messages in the manner prescribed by the Applicable Laws and the Recipient to whom the Communication is sent, including the business name, company registration number, VAT number (if assigned);
- in the case of the Messages containing information on the prices of goods or services, a clear definition of whether or not the prices are inclusive of taxes and other charges or not, and the amount of such taxes and charges;
- all other information and content required by the Applicable Laws for specific cases. The above information for the Recipient must be clear and legible and their reading must not require any activity on the part of the Recipient (e.g. loading the image, opening the linked page, etc.).
- Marketing Messages requirements. Additionally, the Marketing Messages must also include the following:
- information that the Message sent is a Marketing Message;
- in case of the Messages sent by email, the sending email address which must be functional and reachable by recipients;
- a valid contact, at which the Recipient may directly and effectively request not to receive any further Marketing Messages from you (in case of the Messages sent by email an email address; in case of Messages sent by SMS or other Mobile channel the contact information can be omitted due to length limitations as long as the sender is clearly identifiable by the recipient), instructions for using this contact and, if applicable, a link to the your website with contacts (except for SMS or other Mobile channel due to its length limitations); this contact must be clear and legible; you are not authorized to alter, delete or disable this contact in any way, and ascertaining of such contact may not require any activity on the part of the Recipient;
- visibly placed unsubscribe link for automated opt-out by the Recipient, by which the Recipient may withdraw the consent to the use of its electronic contact for sending of the Marketing Messages. This link must be usable by the Recipient for at least 30 days after the message was sent.
- Messages sampling and suspension. We do random sampling of Messages to identify their compliance. If we discover that your Messages do not contain the compulsory content listed above, we will always try to contact you to rectify the situation. In these cases, we may (i) suspend the domain from further sending of the Messages or (ii) completely suspend the provision of the Omnivery Service to you.
- Unsubscribe options. While you are required to add unsubscribe links to your Marketing Messages there are many other technical means to unsubscribe that lead directly to us, eg. list-unsubscribe headers, feedback-loops, spam reports etc. We will act on these requests and suppress the recipients accordingly and the information will be passed to you using webhooks (if set). If the Recipient informs us, on the basis of the Marketing Messages received from you, that they do not wish to receive the Marketing Messages any further, or if they withdraw the consent to the use of their electronic contact for the sending of the Marketing Messages, we will add the Recipient to the suppression list to prevent further Marketing Messages to be sent. We may proceed in the same way also if the Recipient informs us that the Messages received by them do not contain the terms stipulated by these Terms or in the Recipient‘s opinion are the Spam.
VIII. Applicable Legal Requirements
- Compliance across jurisdictions. Your Recipients may reside anywhere around the globe and internet makes no distinction between them. The laws on the other hand differ country by country. You need to make sure you meet the laws that may affect the Messages you send in all likely jurisdictions - eg. at least in the most likely destination countries you can reasonably expect your Recipients to reside in. For this reason, sending of Messages by you and the content of the Messages you send must comply with all Applicable Laws.
- 3rd party content. The fact that you have downloaded an image, logo or any text for free doesn’t necessarily mean you are free to use it and distrubute it. Make sure you have all rights for the intended use of such content as required by the Applicable Laws. You must obtain these rights at the latest on the commencement of the distribution of the Messages to the Recipients at your own expense. At our request, you are obliged to provide proof of obtaining these rights to us for inspection.
- Data protection legislation. Your company may be subject to various laws and regulations - from GDPR, CASL to CCPA and you must always comply with the laws on personal data protection and adopt, maintain, publish, and act in accordance with the privacy policy that is fully compliant with these laws. Our Services are tailored to comply with all of the major legislations, but some of the legal requirements (such as informing your Recipients about processing of their data and setting internal retention periods) must be fulfilled directly by you. For this reason, you should always consult with your legal team prior to sending any Messages.
- Sender identification and contact details. Every now and then recipients may ask us to identify who the sender is and ask for a contact email. We believe in transparency and the recipients have the right to know who to contact. For this reason, you must keep your contact address and telephone number in your account settings up to date. We may share these contact information with your Recipient upon the Recipient‘s request.
- No right to our software. You acknowledge that by conclusion of the Agreement you did not obtain any other right to software used by us during the operation of the Service. You may not copy, distribute, sell or modify this software, reverse engineer this software, extract its source code or attempt to do so, unless you have our written permission or the Applicable Laws allows you to do so.
IX. Conditions for provision of Bot Detection Service
- Service definition. As the Additional Service, the Bot Detection Service enables you to identify indications of any non-human interactions with messages through the API calls. With the use of the Bot Detection Service, any submitted interactions will be extended with information about whether available information indicates that the interaction was done by human or a robot.
- Permitted usage. You may use the results of the Bot Detection Service to analyse genuine user interactions with your Messages for the improvement of your statistics and reporting data.
- Prohibited uses. It is prohibited to use the Bot Detection Services for the following purposes:
- analysing artificially generated interactions or any interactions which data have been altered;
- redirecting hyperlinks for the Recipients based on the results of the Bot Detection Service;
- creating any alternative of the Bot Detection Service based on its results;
- caching the detection results and applying the results for interactions other than originally used to retrieve the result;
- reverse engineering of the internal functioning of the Bot Detection Service.
- Access to service. Provision of the Bot Detection Service is subject to our approval and is not available by default. Access to the Bot Detection Service may be terminated in case of actual or suspected violation of these Terms.

- Indicative nature of results. The results of the Bot Detection Service are only indicative based on the information available at the specific time of interaction, effective at the time of the timestamp provided in the API call or the time of the request if timestamp is not provided. Accuracy of the results is proportional to quality and scope of data provided in the API call by you.

- Statistics availability. Sometimes detailed statistics related to Omnivery Services may not be available, for example number of opened messages for SMS, spam complaints from Gmail, as these channels and/or providers don’t provide such data. Statistical data may also be unavailable due to legal limitations.
- SMS sender ID. You may ask us to assign the so-called “SMS sender ID” in SMS messages also known as Alpha-sender (therefore, you will not be identified in the SMS messages by a phone number, but by a text mark - name of your choice up to 11 alphanumeric characters). However, SMS sender ID is not available in all countries and mobile networks and we can only arrange the SMS sender ID where the mobile networks offer this feature. For these reasons, you are not legally entitled for assignment of this SMS sender ID and your request may be denied due to technical limitations.
- Dedicated IP address. You may ask us to assign dedicated IP addresses. But you are not legally entitled for this assignment, and it is at our sole discretion whether we will assign you these IP addresses.
