Hey, I work on several of the networks you're promoting this service on. The implementation of crowd2 is definitely spammy, although I'm sure you've had the best intention at heart.
For points of reference, this violates Facebook's terms of service, Twitter's, and several of Google's, though not directly mentioned for Google+ I'd still err on the side of caution.
One of the things you can do to be more compliant is to offer an "opt out" option, or an alternative method (like a unique URL) that doesn't directly involve the social networks sharing plugins but still provide an effective gate. Just be aware that this will cause issues with at least three of these services. Can't speak for LinkedIn, but I'd assume it's probably the same deal.
- fitztrev 15y agoThank you for the information. Because of this, and others', comments, I added an opt-out button. While the customer can still share, they have the clear option that they can download the offer without having to do so.
