Message Contents
Of course, companies are careful when writing messages because they have to convey marketing information to customers. This is also regulated by law. The content of the france telegram message must not offend, violate the rights of, or harm any recipient of the message, whether this is done intentionally or not. In many countries, it is prohibited to distribute unfair and misleading advertising; advertising that provokes illegal actions; advertising that uses obscene language, obscene or offensive images, comparisons and expressions; advertising that distorts the meaning of information and misleads consumers. Under no circumstances should you send the following messages:

Messages containing obscene language or insults;
Advertising of prohibited goods;
Messages that violate any applicable law;
Messages sent without the recipient's consent.

Anti-spam policy of telecommunication companies
