About this audience
No single region dominates: South East is largest at 16 percent, London follows at 12 percent, then East of England at 11 percent. London is under-represented: 12 percent here against 33 percent across the database. The spread is similar by job function: General management is largest at 19 percent, Engineering follows at 15 percent, then Sales at 14 percent. Engineering is over-represented: 15 percent here against 6.4 percent across the database. By company size the audience is also spread out: the 1,500 to 4,999 employee band is largest at 15 percent, the 20 to 49 employee band follows at 14 percent, then the 200 to 349 employee band at 13 percent. The 1 to 5 employee band is under-represented: 9 percent here against 14 percent across the database. The three largest are South East, London and East of England, together 39 percent of contacts.
92,410 of the contacts are emailable, meaning a named email scoring 70 or more at a corporate subscriber. 128,610 (74 percent) have a telephone number held, above the database figure of 72 percent. Every telephone number is screened against the TPS and CTPS each night through a licensed screening service, and carries its status and the date of that screen. We treat a screen as valid for 28 days, our own rule rather than the ICO's. Screen the numbers you are supplied yourself before calling, and again every 28 days.
This count uses one filter. The industry filter uses the SIC 2007 section (section C), and a company counts when any of its codes falls in the section. It covers named business emails at active UK companies. Individual subscribers, meaning sole traders and ordinary partnerships, are excluded by default. Emailmovers relies on legitimate interests under UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) for named business contacts.
How we count explains title matching, places and rounding. The trust page lists sources, sub-processors and the legal basis.
