Why Register? How Does it Work?

When I register my details, how long until it shows up on the "Don't Mail Me" Register?

After you register, your contact details will show up on this registry by the next day. We will forward your details to the DMA and they will add you to their lists and circulate it to all members.

What if I change my mind? Can I take my details off the "Don't Mail Me" Register?

You can delete your details by calling (021) 670 – 7738. Your details will be removed from the Effective Intelligence "Don't Mail Me" Register by the next day. However we cannot guarantee when other suppliers will remove you from their registers.

What about the Privacy of My Information?

If I choose to register my details, how will my information be used and disclosed?

We collect your details so that we can ensure that you are removed from any of the promotion lists of Clients dealing with Effective Intelligence. This information will be forwarded only to the DMA and they will add you to their lists and circulate it to all members.

Can I register all my family and friends?

You should register only your own details and request your family or friends to register themselves.

Can I register my business phone number or a fax number?

The "Don't Mail Me" Register is only for personal details.

What Information is required by the register?

You need to supply your ID Number, Initials and Surname.

Why should I give you all my personal information?

Your ID number is unique to you. To ensure successful removal from our mailing list we need to use your ID number, Name and Surname to ensure we remove the correct person from our register. This is standard practice in South Africa.

NB: Unfortunately we can not list you on the Register without these minimum details as we cannot match you.  We also need to confirm your surname to the ID number before we add your details to the register (this is for security to ensure it is your request).
