1. Reputable List Brokers & Data Providers
Look for providers who:
Verify and update their data regularly
Confirm that fax recipients have given fax lists prior express consent or that an Established Business Relationship (EBR) exists
Provide clear usage rights and compliance documentation
Offer segmented and opt-in lists by industry, geography, and business size
Examples:
InfoUSA (Data Axle)
Experian Business Lists
ZoomInfo
FaxDatabases.com
CarePrecise (for healthcare fax lists)
2. Industry-Specific Providers
Some niche providers focus on industries like healthcare, real estate, or legal and maintain strict compliance protocols, including opt-in verification.
3. B2B Data Marketplaces
Platforms like Datarade or LeadsMarket aggregate lists from multiple compliant sources, letting you choose based on filters and compliance guarantees.
How to Ensure Compliance When Renting Fax Lists
Ask for proof of consent or EBR for all fax numbers.
Confirm the list includes fax numbers only for businesses, not consumers (business-to-business is usually less regulated but still requires consent).
Ensure opt-out mechanisms are in place and that you’ll include opt-out info on all faxes.
Review the provider’s privacy policy and data collection methods.
Keep records of all agreements and permissions.
Avoid lists gathered via scraping, public websites, or third-party resellers without clear permissions.
What to Avoid
Cheap or suspiciously large fax lists with no verification.
Lists from unknown sources or those lacking clear consent documentation.
Faxing to consumer numbers or fax numbers without proper consent.
Final Thought
Renting fax lists legally is about sourcing from trusted, compliant providers who verify consent and keep their data clean. Always do your due diligence and include opt-out language on every fax you send.
