What are unsubscribed Contacts & Outlets?
Email communications you send from Vuelio will automatically include links to allow the recipient to opt-out or 'unsubscribe' from further emails.
Under GDPR and similar data protection regulations, email recipients who unsubscribe cannot be re-subscribed without their explicit and voluntary consent.
Contacts and Outlets that have chosen to unsubscribe will remain within your system and any Groups they belong to, but any new emails you try to send them from Vuelio will be automatically blocked.
Search filters and labels will allow you to quickly view records that are no longer contactable or simply exclude them from your search results.
