South Carolina recently imposed a law that prohibits the use of personal information obtained from government agencies for commercial solicitation.  To abide by this law, our vendor updated all South Carolina records to flag the owner address data with a Do Not Mail flag.  The result of this is that owner address data will not be included in labels in South Carolina.  Additionally the owner address will be appended with (No Mail) on the property reports and customized exported data.

Below are the details of this law, and some links to this section of the law.
