KMH is concerned about controlling unsolicited commercial email, or "spam". KMH will not sell, lease or rent its email subscriber lists to third parties. While KMH continues to actively review and implement new technology, such as expanded filtering features, there is no technology that will totally prevent the sending and receiving of unsolicited email. Using junk email tools and being cautious about the sharing of your email address while online will help reduce the amount of unsolicited email you receive.
