If you’re working in the email space, everything is “CAN-SPAM compliant.” But does it make any sense to say, “I had a CAN-SPAM compliant dinner last night”?
No? I didn’t think so either.
But what makes an email database “CAN-SPAM compliant?" I came across a press release wherein the company purports to offer “more than 50 additional healthcare marketing databases. All email databases are CAN/SPAM compliant.”1
So, what exactly makes a database “CAN-SPAM compliant”?
I suspect that it means that all of the addresses were gained from some other method than scraping websites.
