Stop American Diabetes Association Mail
The American Diabetes Association publishes a dedicated mailing and calling list removal contact: privacy@diabetes.org. Its privacy team also lists 703-253-4998. Ask for paper-mail removal explicitly, rather than assuming an email unsubscribe changes your postal record.
Use the published mailing-list contact
The Association's Removal From Mailing or Calling Lists page directs readers to email privacy@diabetes.org with details. Despite the page title, the current instructions are an email contact, not an address-entry form.
You can also call the listed privacy team at 703-253-4998. Say whether you want no paper fundraising mail, no solicitation calls, or both. Do not substitute the general diabetes-information line or send an opt-out to the donation payment address.
Identify the record on the envelope
Before writing, compare the name, street address, unit and ZIP code on recent pieces. Include the spelling that actually appears, even if it differs from the name you use in an online account. An initial, former surname or missing unit can explain why one copy persists after another stops.
If two labels differ, list both in the same request and ask the team to check each record. Add a printed donor or campaign code if one is visible. That is a practical way to describe the mail, not a claim that the Association requires a particular code for every request.
A postal request you can adapt
Replace the brackets before sending this message through the official contact. This page does not collect your address or send it anywhere.
Please stop American Diabetes Association paper fundraising mail addressed to [name as printed] at [full mailing address, including unit and ZIP code]. The label also shows [donor or campaign code, if present]. Please check these additional printed name or address variations: [variations, if any]. This is a postal-mail preference request, not a request to cancel a donation or remove access to services. Please confirm which mailing records were updated. Thank you.
A response estimate is not a last-mail date
The dedicated page says the team will respond within three business days. That describes its reply, not when every prepared envelope will disappear. Ask the team how much mail is already scheduled and what allowance applies to your record.
Save your sent request and reply with the original label. If another appeal arrives later, compare its label before following up. Send the new code and original request date so the team can investigate a missed variation rather than starting with an unidentified envelope.
Keep broader data requests separate
The Association's privacy policy describes additional data-rights requests. Those are broader than stopping paper appeals and can have different verification and retention rules. Start with the dedicated mailing-list route when unwanted postal contact is the problem.
A mailing request does not need your diagnosis, treatment history, password or payment-card details. If you still want educational information, name the communications you wish to keep and ask the team to confirm the scope. Do not assume the same request changes a different charity's list.
Keep the appeal and its mailing label together
Use the printed details to make your request to the privacy team yourself. A readable label helps distinguish separate donor records.
