Rod, DDNS's approach may not comply with the Interim Code of Practice. from: http://www.auda.org.au/docs/Interim_COP.pdf --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8< -- 8. Renewal Notices Registrars and resellers shall not send to registrants renewal notices that appear to be (or could be construed as) invoices for payment, unless the registrant is their customer. All solicitations for business should be clearly identified as such, and should include a statement that the registrant is under no obligation to respond and may choose to renew their domain name licence through their existing registrar or reseller. --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8< -- DDNS addresses the notice to the "Accounts Department" which may give organisations receiving the notice an impression that it is an invoice. Also, unless DDNS has permission from the CEO of auDA, they may be contravening the Terms of Use of the AUNIC database. from: http://www.aunic.net/copyright.html --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8< -- AUNIC Whois Database Terms of Use The AUNIC database is a public service provided by .au Domain Administration Limited (ACN 079 009 340) ("auDA"). By submitting a query on the AUNIC database ("AUNIC") you agree with auDA that you will only use the data retrieved for a lawful purpose and will not, under any circumstances, use the data to 1. allow, enable or otherwise support the transmission of unsolicited, commercial advertising or solicitations via email or otherwise; or 2. support your own or a third party high volume automated electronic query process. Whether or not any automated query process is "high volume" shall be determined by auDA in its absolute discretion. --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8< -- It is the blatantly obvious that AUNIC is the data source for DDNS's direct marketing campaign.
