    Campaign You are a Consumer if you are a natural person and do not conduct business or professional activity.  
    Consumer Campaigns are the primary task of the FreshMail App. A Campaign is a single mass delivery of one marketing email or text message, based on a single template, and made by you via the App. A single message is also considered to be a Campaign. Note that transactional emails sent from the FreshMail App are not a Campaign.  
    Account It’s yours and yours alone. After signing up to the FreshMail Portal, you will have a personalised profile generated for you to use the FreshMail App functionalities and resources.  
    Trial Account This is an Account that you set up for a trial period of 14 days (‘Trial Period’), and therefore you do not pay any fees to FreshMail during the Trial Period. Your Trial Account lets you create mailing lists with a maximum total of 100,000 Subscribers, expressed as the number of unique email addresses or phone numbers. You can send a maximum of 5,000 messages during the Trial Period. The Trial Account is missing some features of the FreshMail App, and access to technical support is limited.  
    Moderation The Campaigns and the Landing Page are subject to moderation by FreshMail before delivery or publishing. FreshMail reserves the right to verify the compliance of the content with the Terms of Use, the Anti-Spam Policy, and good email marketing practice.  
    Landing Page A simple website which you can create in the FreshMail App, mainly with a view to obtaining Personal Data of your Subscribers. The Landing Page content is created and managed by you according to these Terms of Use.  
    Subscribers You send your Campaigns to them. These are the individuals whose email addresses and/or phone numbers you import to the FreshMail App. Remember that the number of Subscribers in your Account is the sum of the numbers of email addresses in all your Subscriber Lists, even if individual email addresses or phone numbers are repeated in these Lists.  
    Anti-Spam Policy FreshMail wants all use of the FreshMail App to be in compliance with mandatory provisions of law and generally accepted Internet practices. Therefore, FreshMail has created the Anti-Spam Policy, which brings together all the foregoing regulations and rules. If you wish to read the Anti-Spam Policy, click here.  
    Privacy Policy FreshMail is committed to protecting your privacy. That is why we have created the Privacy Policy, a set of practices and rules according to which we process your Personal Data. If you wish to read the Privacy Policy, click here.  
    FreshMail App This is where you import the databases of email addresses or phone numbers of the Subscribers and send your Campaigns through it. The FreshMail App is an online application accessed at app.freshmail.com and provided as Software as a Service (SaaS). You do not have to install it on your computer.  
    Business entity This is a legal entity or a natural person that conducts business activity and establishes cooperation with us, with the contract concluded with us stating that this cooperation is directly associated with the activity performed and is of professional character to such a legal entity or natural person.  
    Business entity with the rights of a consumer You are a Business entity with the rights of a consumer if you are a sole entrepreneur and use our services in the scope directly related to your business activity, with the contract concluded with us stating that this cooperation does not have a professional character for you, for example, based on the data concerning the subject matter of your business activity listed in the Central Register and Information on Economic Activity (CEIDG).  
    Report Would you like to know how many Subscribers have received your Campaign? The Report functionality lets you view the statistical data of your Campaigns.  
    Terms of Use

     

    This is what you are reading right now. It is a FreshMail policy document in which FreshMail has defined the terms of your paid use of the FreshMail Portal and App. If you have already used a Trial Account, the text in blue highlights the provisions which are different from the Trial Account Terms of Use.  
    Trial Account Terms of Use Before you decide to use the full version of the FreshMail App against a fee, you can test it free of charge with a Trial Account. FreshMail’s relations with you during the free Trial Period are regulated in a separate document, the Trial Account Terms of Use which you can read [here].

A Spamtrap detects instances of sending email messages to the email addresses which exist in databases created illegally or not in compliance with good email marketing practice (examples: read Sections 2.ii and 2.iii of the Anti-Spam Policy). The presence of Spamtraps on your Subscriber List can also mean poor maintenance of the Subscriber database.

    Contract You conclude the Contract with FreshMail for the paid use of the FreshMail App by accepting these Terms of Use and the guidelines specified here. If you do not wish to pay for your use of the FreshMail App with an electronic wallet or by Recurring Payment charged from your credit card, you can conclude a written non-exclusive licence agreement with FreshMail. The Terms of Use of the non-exclusive licence agreement are not unlike these Terms of Use.If you have previously used a Trial Account, you have 30 days after the end of the Trial Period to conclude the Contract with FreshMail for a paid use of the FreshMail App. After that time, your Trial Account and all its data will be deleted by FreshMail.

    Everyone’s been through this – Signing up

  8. To use the FreshMail App, you will need to set up an email account for yourself or use the one you already have. Account registration in the FreshMail App will only be possible until 29 February 2024.
  9. To sign up for FreshMail and use the FreshMail Portal and App, you need a terminal with Internet connectivity. The terminal must have a software application installed for browsing Internet resources (web browser). The web browser must accept cookie files and have JavaScript support enabled.
  10. If you already have an email account and your terminal meets the foregoing criteria, the next step is to sign up for FreshMail. Without signing up, you cannot access any functionalities of the FreshMail App. The Sign-up Form is available at freshmail.com . You will need to fill it with your real personal data:
    (i) your first name;
    (ii) your email address;
    (iii) your phone number.
    You will also need to set up and confirm a password for your Account. Your password should be very secure and include at least 8 characters: different letters and digits or special characters. We also recommend that you enable the two-factor authentication option (2FA), which provides your account with additional protection. You can find out how to activate this function here. The FreshMail App will verify your password and tell you if it meets the criteria.
  11. Note that the FreshMail App is operated on the Internet. That is why all information and documents related to the FreshMail Portal and the use of the FreshMail App will be sent to you over the Internet only. If you wish to stay up to date with all the innovations in email marketing, such as new functionalities added to the FreshMail App or the latest marketing trends, do not forget to give your consent to the processing of your personal data for marketing purposes by FreshMail, which includes direct marketing, especially for the transmission of FreshMail’s commercial information to you.

  14. The FreshMail App will only work correctly on the browsers we support. The currently supported browsers can be found on our website. We would like to point out that the FreshMail App may not work properly or at all with other versions of browsers.

    What can I upload to the FreshMail App?
  15. By now, you should have a very good understanding of Article 10 of the E-Services Act and Articles 4(7) and 6(1) of GDPR. To manage your email and SMS marketing, you can upload email addresses and phone numbers owned by Subscribers who have been verified as having granted you their consent to receive commercial information by electronic channels of communication. To use other functionalities of the FreshMail App (e.g. transactional emails), you need to secure a correct legal basis for the processing of Personal Data. To do this, you must become a Personal Data Controller as construed under GDPR (or act as a Personal Data Processor for and on behalf of the Personal Data Controller). This, in turn, requires you to conclude a personal data processing outsourcing agreement with FreshMail. You can find more details about what you can upload to the FreshMail App in the Anti-Spam Policy.
  16. If you do not know Article 10 of the E-Services Act, read it here.
  17. If you do not know Article 4(7) or 6(1) of GDPR, you can read both here.
  18. When creating a Landing Page you can upload any graphical and text Content to the FreshMail App. Note that you are solely liable for the Content uploaded by you. Read more in points 54 to 58 of the Terms of Use about Moderation and the ‘notice and take down’ procedure.
  19. Note that you are solely and fully liable for the data and Content you upload to the FreshMail App. You shall indemnify and hold FreshMail harmless from any liability for the data you have uploaded to the FreshMail App.
  20. FreshMail has the right to verify all email addresses imported to its System and will use dedicated IT tools to verify if any risks may arise from your sending of Campaigns to toxic (potentially dangerous) email addresses. If any such risk is found during the verification, such a Campaign will not be sent by FreshMail. If a large number of toxic email addresses or Group Email Addresses is found on any Subscriber List, FreshMail may suspend the sending of the Campaign to the entire Subscriber List concerned or block your Account according to point 59, 60 and 63 of these Terms of Use.
  21. If you have previously taken advantage of a Trial Period, just after you enter into the Contract with FreshMail for the paid use of the FreshMail App, all your data, your Subscriber Lists and Contents will be saved in the paid account.

    How do I send my first Campaign?

  22. The FreshMail App has been designed for easy and intuitive use by everyone eligible. FreshMail enables you to design your Campaign from scratch or by applying predefined solutions. If you need any help, read FreshMail’s ‘How to plan an email campaign’. You can find it here. Remember that it is you who creates your Campaigns and their content. FreshMail only provides you with the right tools to so.
  23. Remember that Campaigns sent through a paid Account are released only when the Account has no outstanding payments. FreshMail automatically posts all fees credited and made by you online. You need to be patient, however, as the payment processing can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few days.
  24. You can find the results of each sent Campaign in the Report, which is updated on an ongoing basis. The Report registers the activities of Subscribers for the duration of your paid use of the FreshMail App. The Subscriber activity after this period will not be included in the Report.

  44. When you do business with FreshMail, you and FreshMail are like connected vessels. This means that you and FreshMail must protect every information entrusted to one another.

  48. If you are satisfied with the services provided by FreshMail, let us boast about it! FreshMail may ask for your consent to publish information about FreshMail’s business with you, including by publishing your logo on FreshMail’s website. Remember: if we ask for this permission, a “No” is also a good answer.

    Outsourcing of personal data processing
  49. When you create an Account in the FreshMail App, a document titled “Personal Data Processing Outsourcing Agreement” is generated for you to sign, which is obligatory.
  50. Note that you are a Personal Data Controller (or, as applicable, you act as a Personal Data Processor on behalf of a Personal Data Controller) and you are required to conclude an agreement with FreshMail to specify the extent and purposes of outsourcing of personal data processing by FreshMail. You can do this in one of four ways:

    (i) Click the “Accept the Agreement” button below the Personal Data Processing Outsourcing Agreement generated in the FreshMail App, which is equivalent to signing the Agreement electronically.
    (ii) Download, print, sign by hand, scan and upload the Personal Data Processing Outsourcing Agreement back to the FreshMail App.
    (iii) Download, print, sign by hand, and send the Personal Data Processing Outsourcing Agreement by mail to the corporate headquarters of FreshMail.
    (iv) Conclude a separate non-exclusive license agreement on paper and with the Personal Data Processing Outsourcing Agreement as its attachment.
  51. Unless you sign the Personal Data Processing Outsourcing Agreement with FreshMail, FreshMail may prevent you from:
    (i) uploading any database to your Account (also when uploading via any Landing Page or other services provided by third parties);
    (ii) sending Campaigns and transactional emails,
    (iii) publishing any Landing Pages you may create.
  52. FreshMail is outsourced for and manages the processing of Personal Data on your behalf against your payment for the FreshMail App which you use.
  53. You can download Personal Data from the FreshMail App (if any Personal Data has been uploaded and potentially modified to and in the FreshMail App) into a CSV (comma-separated values) file. The CSV file will include the Personal Data of your Subscribers uploaded to the FreshMail App and the contents of the additional fields stored in the FreshMail App. This way FreshMail discharges its obligation imposed by Article 20(1) of GDPR.

    Moderation
  54. Prior to sending, each Campaign is moderated by FreshMail for compliance with the highest standards of mass delivery of email and mobile text communications. The FreshMail Customer Support screens each Campaign for compliance with FreshMail’s Terms of Use, Anti-Spam Policy and Privacy Policy; this includes checking that a resignation link is included in the Campaign. If no resignation link is provided in the Campaign, the Campaign is prevented from being sent. FreshMail may also suspend any Campaign from sending if it features any offensive, illegal or immoral content, or the Campaign is otherwise in violation of FreshMail’s Terms of Use, Anti-Spam Policy and/or Privacy Policy. If your Campaign is suspended, you are not entitled to a refund of any payment already made to FreshMail.
  55. Landing Pages are moderated not unlike Campaigns, see point 52 of the Terms of Use, although no Landing Page is required to feature the resignation link.
  56. Campaigns and Landing Pages sent or shared from all types of FreshMail Accounts are subject to moderation, irrespective of the Payment plan in effect.
  57. Moderation by FreshMail does not release you from your liability for the content and management of your Campaigns and Landing Pages.
  58. Aside from Moderation, FreshMail has the right to remove certain Content which you may have uploaded to the FreshMail App; this applies especially to the content published on Landing Pages and reported beyond any doubt by any third party or officials to be in violation of anyone’s rights and/or the prevailing regulations of law.

    Account and sending block
  59. FreshMail may temporarily block your Account if:
    (i) you are in actual or reasonably suspected breach of these Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, the Anti-spam Policy, the prevailing regulations of law or the principles of social interaction. If your Account is blocked because of this, the Account will be unblocked once you have provided the necessary clarification of the breach. However, despite this clarification, we may continue to block your Account if we consider that the security of the FreshMail App or other legitimate considerations require it, in particular, if we are required to do so by law or by a relevant state authority (for example, police, Personal Data Protection Office (UODO) etc.). If FreshMail deems that the breach was committed to use any functionality of the FreshMail App against their intended use, especially to generate and distribute spam, the Account will remain blocked, and you will forfeit all the rights to have your payments refunded. In these circumstances, we may terminate the Contract concluded with you with immediate effect in accordance with point 65 (i) of the Terms of Use;
    (ii) you are in breach of the provisions on the correct use of the FreshMail App, as specified in point 61-63 of the Terms of Use;
    (iii) you have failed to pay for the use of the FreshMail App for at least two or more Billing Periods, i.e. 60 (sixty) days from the due payment date.
  60. If FreshMail identifies a Campaign or Landing Page which has been sent, published or organised against FreshMail’s Anti-Spam Policy or the prevailing regulations of law, or if Spamtraps are found by FreshMail on any Subscriber List you have (including abuse@domain email addresses and/or postmaster@domain email addresses), FreshMail may permanently block you from sending any Campaigns to these Subscriber Lists.

    Provisions on the correct use of the FreshMail App
  61. The correct use of the FreshMail App ensures superior standards and efficiency for thousands of our customers. It is therefore important to adhere to the provisions on the correct use of the FreshMail App in such a way that it is equally satisfactory for all its users.
