We also track and receive other forms of spam complaints and have regular contact with ACMA (Australian Communications & Media Authority) who enforce the SPAM Act 2003 (Cth). To avoid the negative consequences associated with spam related activity, we recommend you take the necessary steps as outlined in Clauses 23 to 40 - Your Responsibilities.

35. You agree to fully hold harmless and indemnify Us, our directors, affiliates, employees, agents, and assigns from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, demands, liabilities, costs expenses, loss or damage (including but not limited to legal fees on a full indemnity basis, and any loss of profits) that We may suffer arising from:
