Recipients of email campaigns can often indicate what types of emails they wish to receive from the sender (e.g. sale notifications or newsletters).
Opt-Out (or Unsubscribe)
To opt-out simply means that you no longer wish to be on a particular company’s email list. By law mailers have to include an unsubscribe link in the body of an email campaign that they are sending.
