Mailing Agent: The mailing agent is a business entity, organization, or individual acting on behalf of one or more mail

owners by providing mailing services for which the mail owners compensate the mailing agent. A business entity,

organization, or individual whose services define it as a mailing agent may also be considered a mail owner, but only

for its own mail or the mail of its subsidiaries. Mailing agents include, but are not limited to the following: Printer,

letter shop, address list provider/manager; mail preparer, postage payment provider, mailing logistics provider,

mailing tracking provider, ad agency, and mailing information manager.

Mail Owner: The mail owner is the business entity, organization, or individual who makes business decisions

regarding the mailpiece content, directly benefits from the mailing, and ultimately pays for postage on the mailpiece

directly or by way of a mailing agent.
