GEORGE BROWN COLLEGE – ANTI–SPAM COMMITMENT
Section Menu
* Anti–Spam Commitment
* Freedom of Expression policy
* Privacy Policy
George Brown College (the “College”) is committed to providing transparency to
outside parties with respect to the compliance of the organization’s electronic
communication with Canada’ Anti-Spam Legislation, in effect as of July 1st,
2014, and its relevant rules and regulations (hereinafter “CASL”). To that end,
the College’s Anti-Spam Commitment is a formal statement of rights and
obligations which is made available to outside parties. It is intended to inform
outside parties of the type of responsible and transparent practices adopted by
the College when electronically communicating with outside parties; to inform
outside parties who they may contact at the College for any concern pertaining
to electronic communications, and to inform such outside parties of where and
how they may unsubscribe to any electronic communications from the College. This
document also includes a series of answers to questions about spam and the
College’s practices that are frequently asked by outside parties that the
College may communicate with.
WHAT CAN YOU DO IF YOU NO LONGER WISH TO RECEIVE CEM FROM THE COLLEGE?
At the College, we take the respect of laws, and your privacy, very seriously.
You may unsubscribe at any time from receiving CEM by clicking on the
unsubscribe link in the CEM you received in order to manage your preferences in
our Preference Centre, where you may also unsubscribe from CEMs on a
list-by-list basis. Please note that if you have subscribed to receive certain
George Brown College commercial emails based on your interests, that you may
still receive those emails unless you unsubscribe from such interests as well.
You may also contact us at casl@georgebrown.ca to process your request to not be
contacted over social media and to be removed from lists. Please forward the
email you received to help us identify the list and sender. We will remove you
from our list within ten (10) business days.
WHO CAN YOU CONTACT WITH QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT THIS ANTI-SPAM COMMITMENT?
If you need further assistance, please contact us at casl@georgebrown.ca, or
submit your inquiry via email.
HOW IS SPAM REGULATED?
Any electronic communication sent by the College to outside parties is protected
by a range of business procedures, processes and policies to ensure that such
communication is done in compliance with CASL. The College, in its electronic
communications with outside parties, has to comply with the rules established by
CASL and enforced by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC), the Competition Bureau and the Privacy Commissioner of
Canada. CASL regulates all commercial electronic messages (“CEM”). These are
messages that include the encouragement of participation in a commercial
activity.
WHAT IS THE COLLEGE DOING TO COMPLY WITH CASL?
The College has undertaken various initiatives in order to make sure that it is
compliant with CASL. It has adopted this Anti-Spam Commitment to provide
transparency to outside parties with respect to the compliance of the
organization’s electronic communication practices with CASL, as well as
undertaking the following initiatives:
THE COLLEGE HAS ADOPTED THE PREFERENCE CENTER
A Preference Center has been adopted to manage CASL’s consent requirements. The
consent of outside parties is necessary in order for the College to send a CEM.
This consent typically must be “express”, but in certain circumstances consent
can be “implied” and in others, messages are specifically exempt from consent
requirements.
Express consent means that the recipient said “yes” (opted-in) to receiving the
College’s CEM. The College has modified certain consent forms in order to ensure
that the express consent obtained from recipients is in compliance with CASL. As
mentioned above, the College has adopted a Preference Center to allow outside
parties to manage their communication preferences. You may be periodically asked
to update your preferences in the Preference Centre, or you may also submit a
verbal or written request to have your preferences or email address updated.
The Preference Center makes it easy for our students, alumni, donors, contacts,
clients, suppliers, vendors, business partners and prospective students to
modify how we interact with them without the need for completely unsubscribing
from our list. Your preferences can be updated at any time by clicking the
preferences link in the email received. You will be notified via email when
changes have been made. Please note: in order for you to change your email
address, you will need to unsubscribe the old address and enter your new address
with associated preferences into the Preference Center. If you are subscribed to
multiple College lists, you must update them on a list-by-list basis.
THE COLLEGE HAS MODIFIED ITS EMAIL FOOTERS
Under CASL, all CEM must include certain prescribed content. For example, CEMs
must clearly identify the College as the party sending the CEM; provide a method
where the recipient can readily contact the College, such as a mailing address
and one of (i) a telephone number with active response voicemail, (ii) an email
address, or (iii) a web address; and provide a working unsubscribe mechanism. In
consequence, the College has modified its email footers to meet CASL’s consent
requirements.
THE COLLEGE HAS INCORPORATED UNSUBSCRIBE MECHANISMS
Under CASL, each CEM must provide a working unsubscribe mechanism (functional
for 60 days), which must be processed without delay, within a maximum of 10
business days. The College has therefore incorporated unsubscribe mechanisms
into CEMs, in order to manage CASL’s consent requirements. Moreover, the College
has set up processes for all CEMs in order to ensure that all unsubscribe
requests will be complied with.
WHY ARE YOU RECEIVING A CEM FROM THE COLLEGE?
The types of CEMs that the College may send from time to time could include the
following:
* CEM sent to the College’s current or potential students by the Marketing &
Communications department or other departments or divisions at the College.
For example, this may be for prospecting purposes or in order to answer a
request for information or an inquiry;
* CEM sent to the College’s donors and alumni. For example, this may be
purposes of fundraising, extending partner offers or for prospecting.
* CEM sent to the College’s current or potential suppliers, vendors and service
providers by various College business units. For example, the College may
outsource part of its activities to a third party (such as a maintenance
company, a translation service provider, etc.) or, the College’s HR
department may contact potential employees electronically for recruitment
purposes.
* CEM sent to the College’s current or potential business partners. For
example, the College has various partnerships with governmental agencies,
community and industry organizations, employers as well as potential vendors
and suppliers.
If you have received a CEM from the College and you believe that you should not
have, please assess as to whether you have provided implied or express consent
to send CEMs, or if an exemption applies.
* Express Consent. Express consent means that the recipient said “yes”
(opted-in) to receiving the College’s CEM. The College has modified certain
consent forms in order to ensure that the express consent obtained from
recipients is in compliance with CASL. You can verify that you have provided
express consent to the College (or verify the status of your consent) by
reviewing your preferences in the Preference Center available through the
email you received from George Brown College.
* Implied Consent: The College may infer your implied consent if:
* The College has an existing business relationship with you or has a former
business relationship with you which terminated less than two years ago
(for instance, if you are a former student, vendor, or supplier);

ongoing relationship between the College and this other business.
* The CEM was sent by the College to you, in order to respond to your request
or inquiry.

obligation (for instance, if you have an outstanding debt, or breached a
contract that you have with the College, etc.).
In certain situations, your consent is not required for certain types of
messages sent by the College, although you may still unsubscribe from future
transmission of similar messages. The type of messages where the College does
