Frequently Asked Questions !!

How is the student data generated?
How is the student data updated - hygiene is maintained?
Developing a database of students is one thing but keeping it updated is an even more significant challenge. This is why our entire student list is updated monthly. Because we understand how important it is for our clients to have accurate data, we employ a full monthly update cycle to ensure every address on our list is accurate and deliverable.
To maintain this highest level of accuracy, our database is put through the following processes on a weekly or monthly basis:
1. Address Standardization: All addresses are processed through CASS Certified™ software, which allows us to clean, code and standardize addresses on our file.
2. Address Verification: All files are processed through DPV™ software, and any record , which cannot be validated, is removed.
3. Do Not Call Processing: All records with telephone numbers are matched to the Federal Do Not Call Registry, all available state Do Not Call Registries and the Wireless Do Not Call Registry.
4. Change-of-Address Processing: All records are processed through NCOALink™, LACSLink™, and ANKLink™.
5. Suppression Processing: All databases are matched to the DMA Mail and Telephone Preference files, as well as our proprietary in-house suppression file.
6. Decedent Processing: Our processing combines direct reporting, utilization of third-party services and internal research methods to identify and remove deceased individuals instantly.
