What Experian's marketing data holds
- Demographics, such as age, marital status, income, occupation and education
- Hobbies, travel preferences and buying habits, including purchase data
- Home details from local property records, such as purchase price and mortgage amount
- Device IDs and interests drawn from what you do online
This is Experian's marketing data, not your credit report. For prescreened credit offers, Experian's own page points to OptOutPrescreen.com or 1-888-567-8688.
How to opt out of Experian's marketing lists
Open Experian's direct mail opt-out page, which gives its contact details: experian.com/privacy (opens in a new tab)
Email optout@experian.com with your full name and mailing address. Add any other versions of your name, other email addresses and phone numbers.
Say which lists you want to come off: mailing lists, telemarketing lists, online targeted advertising, or all three.
Or call Experian at 1-833-210-4615, or write to Experian, PO Box 703, Allen, TX 75013, with the same details.
How long does it take?
Experian's page gives no number of days. Mailings are often planned ahead, so give it 2 to 3 months before you judge your mail.
How long does the Experian opt-out last?
Experian says it marks your record Do Not Mail for 5 years. It only stops mail that uses Experian's data, and Experian says you need to opt out again with your new details if you move or change your name.
Does it cost anything?
Experian's page asks only for your name, mailing address and the other details above, and lists no fee. If a step asks you to pay, stop.
