When you add Email Templates in VanillaSoft, it is highly recommended to include an Unsubscribe Link. In case your Contacts no longer wish to be contacted via email, they have the option to click on Unsubscribe, which will disable the ability to send Emails to that Contact in the future. This will ensure that your emails adhere to the rules in the United States' CAN-SPAM Act, and the rules in Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). For more information on Email Templates, please refer to our How To Create an Email Template article.
