## Compliance in Brazil

- **Opt-in:** Opt-in is required and any form is accepted by the operators (web, call center, MO and similar), but the content provider must be able to demonstrate proof of opt-in in the event of an operator audit or a user complaint.
- **Opt-out:** Opt-out is required and the content provider is responsible for removing users who opt out from their database.
- **Sending times:** Marketing messages may be sent Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm and Saturday 9am to 1pm (GMT-3), and promotional or marketing content may not be sent on Brazil public holidays.
- **Restricted content:** Spam · Political content · Religious content · Sexual content
- SMS traffic is heavily regulated by the operators in Brazil, and prohibited content is subject to fines and service termination.
- Betting content is allowed only when approved.
- Programs should support a HELP message as a best practice.

These rules are what we generally check against, however they may not be up-to-date. We'll always keep you informed of what is needed for each destination throughout any registration process.
