That's the old way.
The new way is privacy policies and express permission-based
marketing. And if a client finds that the supplier is abusing the trust
relationship, or not providing an opt-in arrangement, or ignoring opt-out
requests, the client has every right to invoke the PC, or indeed to take
their business to a supplier that doesn't treat their customers' privacy
with contempt.
