Canadian mailing lists and international mailing list data

Buying Canadian mailing lists the way you buy American ones is one of the more expensive mistakes in direct marketing. Canada's anti-spam legislation treats commercial electronic messages differently from US rules: express consent has to be demonstrable, implied consent is time-limited and narrowly defined, and identification and unsubscribe requirements apply to every message. So our Canadian inventory is handled as its own file with its own consent artefacts rather than as an extension of the US file. Records carry the consent type, the date it was obtained, the source, and the language the consumer saw, which is precisely what you need on hand if a complaint is ever raised.

Canadian selects run by province and territory, CMA, city, and forward sortation area or full postal code, with the demographic and behavioural selects available on the US file where the underlying source supports them. Beyond Canada, our international mailing list inventory concentrates on markets where opt-in consumer data is genuinely obtainable and lawfully transferable: the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand for English-language campaigns, and selected European markets where the source campaign captured GDPR-standard consent with a documented lawful basis. Volumes vary enormously by country, so every international quote is a live count for that specific market and channel rather than a rate-card promise.

We would rather lose an order than sell a file into a jurisdiction where your intended use is not defensible. For European records that means we confirm the channel, the lawful basis and the purpose before quoting, and we decline requests where the original consent does not cover the campaign described. For Canada it means being explicit about which records rest on express consent versus implied consent and when implied consent expires. That conversation happens by email before you pay, so your compliance team can review the consent trail and field structure in advance of any transfer.
