Under CASL, what would imply consent if there's an existing relationship?

1. Consent forms signed during an open house

2. Maintaining ongoing email correspondence

3. Previous business transactions with the recipient

4. Putting a clause in the property agreement contract

5. Signing a physical consent agreement

6. Telephonic confirmation

The correct answer is: Previous business transactions with the recipient

Under the Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL), previous business transactions with the recipient would imply consent when there is an existing relationship. This means if the recipient has engaged in previous business dealings with the sender, such as purchasing a property or utilizing real estate services, there is a reasonable expectation of consent for future communications related to similar products or services. The other options are not accurate because: A. Consent forms signed during an open house do not necessarily demonstrate a pre-existing business relationship. B. Maintaining ongoing email correspondence may not signify consent under CASL unless there was a previous business relationship. D. Putting a clause in the property agreement contract may not be sufficient to imply consent under CASL, as it depends on the nature of the clause and the context of the communication. E. Signing a physical consent agreement would imply explicit consent, not necessarily a pre-existing business relationship. F. Telephonic confirmation may indicate consent for that specific communication but does not automatically imply consent for future communications under CASL.
