Vermont

Vermont is a state in the United States that does not have specific laws regarding commercial email and spam. However, the state does have laws that regulate telemarketing and telephonic commercial solicitation. These laws can be found in Vermont Statutes tit. 9 §§ 2464, 2464a-2464c.

Example 1: A company based in Vermont sends unsolicited emails to potential customers in other states. Since Vermont does not have specific laws regarding commercial email and spam, the company may not face legal consequences for sending these emails.

Example 2: A telemarketing company based in Vermont calls individuals in other states to sell their products. The company must comply with Vermont's laws regulating telemarketing and telephonic commercial solicitation, which include obtaining consent from the individual before making the call and providing certain information about the product being sold.

These examples illustrate how Vermont's laws differ for email and telemarketing. While there are no specific laws for commercial email and spam, there are regulations in place for telemarketing and telephonic commercial solicitation.
