Data Protection

Electric Marketing operates within the terms of the Data Protection Act. The key requirements of this law are that data is accurate, is checked regularly and that the person listed (or someone associated with that person) has given permission to be on the list.

To comply with this law, Electric Marketing checks all data every four months with either the person listed or someone associated with that person, i.e. PA, secretary, personnel department.

If a person asks to be removed from our database, their name is immediately removed.

As a user of Electric Marketing business lists, the Data Protection Act requires you to:

1.Only send mail that relates to business matters.

2.Make sure you have a return address on the envelope.

3.Make sure there is an option for the addressee to remove himself or herself from the list.

Do not use the data for more than a year, without either checking it yourself or buying an updated version of the list from Electric Marketing.

The Data Protection Act exists to protect people from the unscrupulous companies who take no care over the compilation and updating of their data. Legitimate users of quality lists have nothing to fear from this law.
