Current opt-out methods for Valassis mail
-
Mail preference form
Go to Save.com's Privacy Rights Request page. An opt-out or delete request also removes you from the Save mailing list. Enter the name and address on the packet.
-
PaperKarma app
Photograph the Valassis packet. PaperKarma files the opt-out for you.
Once you opt out of this sender, you can opt out of 100,000+ other mailers in the same app.
-
Phone
Call Valassis at +1-800-345-8048. Ask them to stop the Save mailer (the old Valassis / RedPlum packet).
A phone request can take 5 to 10 minutes or longer, depending on the phone tree, hold time, and whether they offer a callback.
What to Expect After Opting Out
- Allow 8 to 12 weeks. Save.com says mailings can continue for up to six weeks. Packets already printed can still arrive.
- Other circulars are separate. Stopping the Save mailer does not stop store circulars from other printers, or occupant mail that is not this packet.
- A later list add-back can start it again. A new shared-mail route can put the address back on a Save file.
Why Do You Receive Valassis Mail?
Valassis was the company behind the coupon packet many people still call RedPlum. Save.com now runs that mailer as the Save packet under RRD.
You get that mail if the household sits on a Save shared-mail route. The leftover envelope is local ads, not a catalog you ordered.
How to Prevent General Junk Mail Proactively
-
DMAchoice
DMAchoice is the Association of National Advertisers' mail preference service. An $8 registration asks about 1,100 participating national companies to suppress your address from prospect promotional mail for 10 years. It does not cover local mailers, charity appeals, companies you already buy from, or occupant / current-resident saturation mail. Allow 90 days or longer.
NOTE: DMAchoice will not stop mail from Valassis as it is not an active member of the ANA.
-
OptOutPrescreen
OptOutPrescreen is the official Consumer Credit Reporting Industry site. It lets you opt out of firm offers of credit and insurance for 5 years or permanently.
NOTE: OptOutPrescreen will not opt you out of Valassis mail. It only covers prescreened credit card and insurance offers.
-
PaperKarma
For local and regional mailers, coupon packs, charity donation requests, and the large share of junk mail that DMAchoice does not cover, the PaperKarma app has the largest U.S. registry, with over 100,000 mailers on file.
Your Data Privacy Rights (CCPA & Beyond)
A promotional opt-out stops Valassis marketing mail. It does not always stop the underlying address from being shared. If you live in a state with an active consumer privacy law (California’s CCPA and several others), you can request access to or deletion of your personal information, and you can opt out of sale, share, or targeted advertising.
Go to the Save.com Privacy Rights Request page, or call +1-800-345-8048, and ask for a deletion or do-not-share request, and to opt out of the Save mailer.
Frequently asked questions
How long until Valassis mail stops?
Allow 8 to 12 weeks. Save.com says mailings can continue for up to six weeks. If a packet arrives during that window, it was likely already printed and labeled before your request was processed.
How do I stop Valassis mail for a previous resident?
Go to Save.com's Privacy Rights Request page and include that person’s name and this address, or call +1-800-345-8048, or use the PaperKarma app to scan the mailer, mark the recipient as a previous resident, and submit the opt-out. Do not mark the person as deceased unless they are deceased.
Will Valassis mail stop if I move?
Not automatically. Marketing lists are tied to a specific name and address. A USPS forward can send a few more packets to the new address. Submit a new Privacy Rights Request for the new address, or use the PaperKarma app there.
