Invitations and Other Communications to Non-members

MailEm members can invite associates to join the service by sending invitation emails via our automated invitation system. MailEm stores the email addresses that members provide so that the respondents may be added to the friend's list of the member sending the invitations, and also to send reminders of the invitations MailEm does not sell these email addresses or use them to send any other communication besides invitations, invitation reminders (up to three (3) per email address).

Recipients of invitations from MailEm may contact MailEm to request the removal of their information from our database. MailEm members may also store email addresses of people they know in their internal MailEm address book and may also choose to send invitations and other communications to those addresses.
