Include a GDPR confirmation link in other templates

0 Votes

In light of new GDPR laws, currently, you only have one template that has the coding to generate an expressed consent "opt-in". I want to include this link, and encouragement to give expressed consent in all of my emails. I was told by your Compliance department that this hard-code is not an option in any of your other templates, but instead I can adapt your expressed consent template to look like a regular email blast. 

 

This seems to be extremely inconvenient as a client, to have to reformat my templates around the opt-in button, rather then being able to add this to existing templates.   Please make the Opt-in coding available universally across all templates. It will only strengthen your product and allow us to strengthen our contacts list.

Hello @PaulK6,

 

Thank you for taking the time and providing this feedback! I agree this would be a great feature and I've passed it along and opened this for voting!

GDPR laws took effect in 2018 and accounts should have already taken action since then to become compliant. At this time, there are no plans to make further changes to our GDPR templates and allow for the expressed opt-in button to be inserted into other templates.
