The problem with this can be that people have only registered on either one or the other and often forget . Maintaining compliancy saves you money. We require that your data lists consist of opt-in contacts in .csv format.

Economy DNC which covers only Federal DNC lists without the 12 State Individual DNC lists (Colorado, Florida, Indiana, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Missiappi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Wyoming). Our Economy DNC Scrubbing which ‘does not’ include the 12 Individual State DNC contacts or Serial Litigators. If you are targetting contacts that exclude these 12 states then you can safely use Economy Scrubbing with no worries. Third Scrubbing option is Carrier Scrubbing which can save you time and money on lost delivery when carriers filter and block your marketing message.
