DA Policy on Contacting Members and Access to Membership Data

Policy Statement and Guidelines on using our membership database as the exclusive tool for communicating with DA members

...

  • Keep your Members informed about relevant issues, but be careful not to inundate them with messages.

    • WHY:  We know from our own experience that people receive a lot of political messaging. We want to avoid the dreaded Email Fatigue that leads some to unsubscribe from all DA mailings.

Caucus-Specific Emails:

  • Global level - Send your caucus mailings from your Global Caucus Broadcaster. No more than 2 emails per month.

  • Country level - Send your proposed emails to your country chair or communications officer.  They will send the email out from the country broadcaster to your members.  This is a change in policy, necessitated by GDPR compliance.  
    No more than 2 emails per month at the country level either.

  • IF you

    need to

    must send more than one or two emails in one month, at either the global or the country level, check with the Global Caucus Coordinator or the Int'l ExCom regarding the timing of your email.

Membership Lists:

Exported lists can only be used solely for information and reference purposes and NOT for external mailings or Facebook.
