Trepup Spam Policy
Effective: 27 January 2025
Respect, security, communication without compromise
At Trepup, we are committed to creating a trusted and respectful platform for all users. This Trepup Spam Policy ("spam policy") outlines our unequivocal stance against spam, ensuring that interactions on Trepup remain meaningful, secure, and free from abuse. Spam—irrelevant or unsolicited messages, particularly those intended for advertising, phishing, or malware distribution—undermines user trust and disrupts communication. It applies to all forms of electronic communication on Trepup, including Trepup Email, part of the Signature Collection within the Plus and Premier plans of Trepup One.
The spam policy works in tandem with the Trepup Terms of Service ("terms of service") and the Trepup Legal Policies ("legal policies") to address spam-related concerns comprehensively. For clarity, any capitalized terms not defined here will carry the meanings assigned to them in the terms of service. Trepup's commitment to inclusivity and clarity ensures that this policy is accessible, accommodating, and aligned with global standards of fairness and respect.
By adhering to these guidelines, you contribute to a cleaner and more enjoyable Trepup experience for everyone. Thank you for helping us uphold these values.
