The Mailing Preference Service (MPS), set up in 1983, allows individuals to register to prevent them from receiving unsolicited mail through their letterbox.

The MPS is 95% effective against stopping unsolicited direct mail to consumers.

Who needs to comply with the regulations?
All those businesses who send direct marketing mail to anybody. both 'cold' lists and customer lists should be cleaned against the MPS before letters are sent, to ensure compliance with the regulations.

How often does the data need to be cleaned?
The MPS is added to on a daily basis and to be compliant data should be cleaned every time a mailing is carried out and minimally every 28 days to ensure that those who have DO NOT MAIL against their name are not contacted.
