Adult Entertainment Marketer Settles FTC Charges
An Internet marketer of adult entertainment will pay a $465,000 civil penalty under a settlement reached with the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice, which charged the company with initiating sexually explicit commercial e-mails. The action is part of an FTC crackdown on illegal “X-rated” spam announced in July 2005, when seven companies were charged with violating federal laws requiring warning labels on sexually explicit e-mail. Settlements with five of the operations have resulted in civil penalties totaling $1.624 million. The FTC’s Adult Labeling Rule and the CAN-SPAM Act require commercial e-mailers of sexually explicit material to use the phrase “SEXUALLY EXPLICIT:” in the subject line, and to ensure that the initially viewable area of the message does not contain graphic sexual images. The Rule and the Act also require that unsolicited commercial e-mail contain an opportunity for consumers to opt out of receiving future e-mail and provide a postal address.
Under the proposed settlement, TJ Web Productions, LLC, is permanently prohibited from violating the FTC’s Adult Labeling Rule. The company also is permanently prohibited from violating the CAN-SPAM Act by initiating commercial e-mail without clearly and conspicuously displaying a physical postal address and a functioning return e-mail address or other Internet-based mechanism, so that recipients may decline to receive any more such e-mail. Although TJ Web Productions did not send the e-mail directly to consumers, the Nevada-based company operated an “affiliate marketing” program and induced others, by monetary payments and other considerations, to transmit commercial e-mail messages on its behalf.
