"Transactional or relationship content – which facilitates an already agreed-upon transaction or updates a customer about an ongoing transaction;"
From ftc website. This doesn't seem to fall under that category.
Edit: More from site.
A. The primary purpose of an email is transactional or relationship if it consists only of content that:
facilitates or confirms a commercial transaction that the recipient already has agreed to;
gives warranty, recall, safety, or security information about a product or service;
gives information about a change in terms or features or account balance information regarding a membership, subscription, account, loan or other ongoing commercial relationship;
provides information about an employment relationship or employee benefits; or
delivers goods or services as part of a transaction that the recipient already has agreed to.
- eli 9y agoIf you're a member of Etsy, then you have an ongoing commercial relationship with the site and this is an update on that relationship. People also generally interpret "deliver goods or services as part of a transaction" pretty broadly especially if the user agreed to receive emails from you when they signed up.
