Sample Email Marketing Agreement
Email marketing services cover a spectrum: from a fully managed service where the service provider does all the work at one end of the spectrum, to the provision of a web-based email marketing platform used independently by the customer at the other. This email marketing agreement is flexible enough to be adapted for either type of service, or indeed for a service falling between these extremes (e.g. where consultancy service are provided to supplement platform access).
The following provisions are included in the email marketing agreement:
(1) Definitions and interpretation
(2) Term
(3) Services
(4) Customer responsibilities
(5) Legality and spam
(6) Intellectual Property Rights
(7) Charges and payment
(8) Warranties
(9) Limitations and exclusions of liability
(10) Data protection
(11) Confidentiality
(12) Publicity
(13) Termination
(14) Effects of termination
(15) Force Majeure Events
(16) General
At 21 pages long, the template is relatively comprehensive. It includes detailed guidance notes on the editing of the clauses. Once the guidance notes and unwanted optional provisions have been removed, you can expect the finished document to be substantially less then 21 pages long.
The email marketing agreement is supplied in Word format (.doc). If you need it in another format, please do let us know.

email marketing terms and conditions template. That template is in substance very similar to this one, with one significant addition: it includes special provisions for online sign-ups. However the main difference is one of style. The T&Cs will usually be incorporated by reference into the contract, and another document- e.g. a proposal - will actually be signed. By contrast, this agreement is in traditional agreement form, with the parties names at the start, the signature block at the end and the variables in schedules to the main agreement.
