DMA's Commitment to Consumer Choice

As a proud member of the Direct Marketing Association (DMA), Publishers Clearing House subscribes to the practices set forth in the DMA's Commitment to Consumer Choice (CCC).

The Commitment is a public assurance that participants like PCH will follow certain specific practices to address the preferences and concerns of consumers and policymakers. It also provides a pro-active approach to environmental and privacy issues. Specifically, the Commitment to Consumer Choice practices include:   

  • Providing existing and prospective customers with notice of an opportunity to modify future mail solicitations.
  • Accepting and maintaining consumer requests to be on an in-house suppress file to stop receiving solicitations.
  • Providing customers with annual notice of their ability to opt out of information exchanges.
  • Providing notice of our own online privacy practices.
  • Honoring customer opt-out requests not to have contact information transferred to others for marketing purposes.
  • Upon request, disclosing the source from which we obtained personally identifiable data.
  • Using the DMAchoice suppression files on a monthly basis.
