this Agreement. No attorney-client, accountant-client or other legal provision
shall be deemed to have been waived by the parties by virtue of this provision.
20. EMAIL/CV
PARSING. Unsolicited bulk e-mail - or junk e-mail - is the electronic
equivalent of junk postal mail and is considered by many to be annoying and wasteful by
some. However, it can be an effective way of communicating a specific message to a targeted
group. Please follow some basic guidelines and adhere to common sense when
utilizing the powerful email capabilities within Ki as follows:
-
Do try to
target specific messages to specific lists and not send every email out
to everyone on every list.
-
Do include
text at the bottom of the email with instructions how a recipient can be
removed from a mailing list whether it was unsolicited or not.
-
Do include
your corporate contact information, including name, title, company,
mailing address, phone and email address.
-
Do include a
confidentiality or legal disclaimer at the bottom of the email in case
it is misdirected and is read by someone other than the intended recipient.
Here are some suggested text samples you can copy and paste into bulk
emails:
"If you choose not to receive future emails from this sender, please
reply to this email with your request to be removed from this mailing
list."
"The information in this email and attachment(s) is legally privileged
and confidential information intended only for the use of the addressee
listed on this email. If the reader of this message is not the intended
recipient, you are hereby notified that any dissemination, distribution
or copying of this email and attachment(s) is strictly prohibited. If
you have received this email in error, please immediately notify us by
telephone at the number listed above and reply to this email that it was
sent in error. Thank you."
It is ultimately your responsibility to professionally and ethically
manage the use of this bulk email feature of the application and adhere to
professional work practices. Your responsibilities include but are not limited
to the following:
- If a recipient has "opted out" or asked to be removed from your
mailing list, it is your responsibility to ensure that they are removed.
- No sexually explicit material or material with any sexual connotation
is to be used
- Content should be compliant with all federal, state, and local
regulatory policies
If misuse of the KontactIntelligence bulk email functionality occurs, we
may be required by our hosting company to disable
the use of this feature for select user accounts.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF,
Licensor and licensee have caused this Software License Agreement to be duly
executed as of today.
EXHIBIT A
Analytic
Software Application
The Analytic Software Application is designed to populate miscellaneous data fields
and other forms by "linking" information from the KontactIntelligence.com database
onto each specific data field or form. Due to the specific nature of each data
field or form, not every question can be automatically answered by the Software
Application. Client, opportunity, and candidate information is gathered in several
screens and entered into the database. The Software Application also allows manual
input of information onto the various screens, data fields, or forms for any
information that does not automatically "link." The Software Application also
includes the ability to add attachments to screens, generate reports and track
workflow.
System Architecture
-
The Software Application, which
consists of an Oracle database, utilities modules, and a graphical user interface.
Licensee is
responsible for internet connectivity with the file server/personal computer.
