Except in the following cases, an orchestrator, a solicitor, or a general multilevel marketing distributor must not advertise multilevel marketing transactions that are connected with the set of related multilevel marketing undertakings orchestrated by that orchestrator via email without the consent of the advertising target:

統括者、勧誘者又は一般連鎖販売業者は、次に掲げる場合を除き、その統括者の統括する一連の連鎖販売業に係る連鎖販売取引について、その相手方となる者の承諾を得ないで電子メール広告をしてはならない。

when sending email advertising multilevel marketing transactions that are connected with the set of related multilevel marketing undertakings orchestrated by that orchestrator (hereinafter referred to as "email advertising multilevel marketing transactions" in this Chapter) at the request of the advertising target; or

相手方となる者の請求に基づき、その統括者の統括する一連の連鎖販売業に係る連鎖販売取引に係る電子メール広告(以下この章において「連鎖販売取引電子メール広告」という。)をするとき。

beyond what is provided in the preceding item, when sending email advertising multilevel marketing transactions in cases specified by order of the competent ministry as cases that are found to be unlikely to prejudice the interests of the target of the email advertising multilevel marketing transactions.

前号に掲げるもののほか、通常連鎖販売取引電子メール広告の提供を受ける者の利益を損なうおそれがないと認められる場合として主務省令で定める場合において、連鎖販売取引電子メール広告をするとき。

An orchestrator, solicitor, or general multilevel marketing distributor that has obtained the consent prescribed in the preceding paragraph or that has received a request provided in item (i) of that paragraph must not send email advertising multilevel marketing transactions to an advertising target if the target of the email advertising multilevel marketing transactions indicates an unwillingness to receive email advertising multilevel marketing transactions; provided, however, that this does not apply if the orchestrator, the solicitor, or the general multilevel marketing distributor later receives a request from the advertising target or regains the consent of the advertising target to send email advertising multilevel marketing transactions.

前項に規定する承諾を得、又は同項第一号に規定する請求を受けた統括者、勧誘者又は一般連鎖販売業者は、当該連鎖販売取引電子メール広告の相手方から連鎖販売取引電子メール広告の提供を受けない旨の意思の表示を受けたときは、当該相手方に対し、連鎖販売取引電子メール広告をしてはならない。ただし、当該意思の表示を受けた後に再び連鎖販売取引電子メール広告をすることにつき当該相手方から請求を受け、又は当該相手方の承諾を得た場合には、この限りでない。

Except in the case stated in paragraph (1), item (ii), when sending email advertising multilevel marketing transactions, an orchestrator, a solicitor, or a general multilevel marketing distributor must prepare what is specified by order of the competent ministry as a record of having obtained the consent of the advertising target or having received a request from the advertising target to send email advertising multilevel marketing transactions, and must preserve the records pursuant to the provisions of order of the competent ministry.

統括者、勧誘者又は一般連鎖販売業者は、連鎖販売取引電子メール広告をするときは、第一項第二号に掲げる場合を除き、当該連鎖販売取引電子メール広告をすることにつきその相手方の承諾を得、又はその相手方から請求を受けたことの記録として主務省令で定めるものを作成し、主務省令で定めるところによりこれを保存しなければならない。

Except in the case stated in paragraph (1), item (ii), when sending email advertising multilevel marketing transactions, pursuant to the provisions of order of the competent ministry, in its email advertising multilevel marketing transactions, an orchestrator, a solicitor, or a general multilevel marketing distributor must indicate information that is specified by order of the competent ministry as the information that an advertising target needs to have in order to indicate an unwillingness to receive email advertising multilevel marketing transactions, in addition to the matters listed in the items of Article 35.

統括者、勧誘者又は一般連鎖販売業者は、連鎖販売取引電子メール広告をするときは、第一項第二号に掲げる場合を除き、当該連鎖販売取引電子メール広告に、第三十五条各号に掲げる事項のほか、主務省令で定めるところにより、その相手方が連鎖販売取引電子メール広告の提供を受けない旨の意思の表示をするために必要な事項として主務省令で定めるものを表示しなければならない。

If an orchestrator, a solicitor, or a general multilevel marketing distributor has comprehensively entrusted another person with all of the following business activities, the provisions of the preceding two paragraphs do not apply to any email advertising multilevel marketing transactions subject to that entrustment:

前二項の規定は、統括者、勧誘者又は一般連鎖販売業者が他の者に次に掲げる業務の全てにつき一括して委託しているときは、その委託に係る連鎖販売取引電子メール広告については、適用しない。
