CIPP-US Exam - Question 123


In what way is the Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing (CAN-SPAM) Act intended to help consumers?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: CD

The Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing (CAN-SPAM) Act requires companies to allow consumers to opt-out of future e-mails. The act does not provide spam-filtering software for free, require opt-in before sending advertising emails, or prohibit objectionable content outright. Instead, it ensures consumers have the ability to opt-out of receiving unsolicited emails from companies.
