About Promotional and Transactional Data

It usually contains personal information like addresses, names and phone numbers used to identify the recipient of these communications. Each recipient represents one record and records for promotional data are fixed length. These communications are aimed to promote a product or service, create a bond or establish a relationship with the customer.
