CASL

🇨🇦 CASL Compliance Policy

At IT Newz Hub, we are fully committed to complying with Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). This policy outlines our practices for sending Commercial Electronic Messages (CEMs)—such as newsletters, product updates, and promotional content—to subscribers in Canada.

1. What is CASL?

CASL is a federal Canadian law that regulates the sending of unsolicited commercial electronic messages (e.g., emails, SMS, or social media messages) for business purposes. It requires explicit consent, clear identification, and an easy way to unsubscribe.

2. Consent

We only send CEMs to recipients who have given express consent. When you subscribe to our newsletter or marketing communications, you must actively opt in—for example, by checking a clearly labeled box or confirming your subscription via email (double opt-in). This ensures your consent is informed, documented, and verifiable in accordance with CASL.

3. Unsubscribe Option

Every commercial message we send includes a clear, visible, and functional unsubscribe link. You may opt out of future communications at any time with a single click.

Upon receiving an unsubscribe request, we process it within 10 business days and permanently remove your contact information from our marketing lists.

4. Accurate Sender Information

All CEMs from IT Newz Hub clearly display:

  • The name of the sender: IT Newz Hub
  • Our valid physical mailing address
  • Contact information via our Contact Us page

This transparency fulfills CASL’s identification requirements.

5. No Misleading Practices

We do not:

  • Use bots or automated tools to harvest email addresses
  • Send messages with false, misleading, or deceptive subject lines
  • Falsify sender information or routing details

All communications are truthful, relevant, and aligned with our B2B technology focus.

6. Record Keeping

We maintain detailed records of all consents, including:

  • The date and time consent was given
  • The method of consent (e.g., web form, confirmation email)
  • The specific content the user agreed to receive

These records are securely stored and retained for as long as required by law.

7. Staff Training & Compliance

Our team receives regular training on CASL requirements and responsible digital communication practices. We also conduct periodic internal reviews to ensure ongoing compliance.
