What CASL is
Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) regulates commercial electronic messages sent to recipients in Canada. In short, to comply you should:
- Get consent before sending (express, or implied where the law allows).
- Identify yourself clearly and include valid contact information.
- Provide a working unsubscribe in every message, and honor opt-outs promptly.
Full details
CASL has specific requirements and exceptions. For complete, up-to-date information, see the official Government of Canada page:
