Subscriber Data Erasure

When leads in EU want to unsubscribe from an organization, it is mandatory that they should be asked if they want their profile to be deleted from the organization or not. For leads who are not from EU, it is the users choice to provide the option for profile deletion.

Users can do this by handling the switch they have in the Data Retention Settings section. If the switch is enabled, the option for profile deletion will be included in the email and if the switch is disabled, profile deletion option will not be included.

The user can set the period for which the data of the subscriber who has raised the request, can be retained. This period is called as the Data Retention Period . The maximum number of days you can retain leads' data is 30 days.

You can change the data retention period by following the steps:

1. From the Navigation Toolbar select Leads and choose Manage consent .
   
2. Click GDPR setup subtab and click the Edit button in the top right corner of the Data retention settings section.
   

   
   

3. You can change the data retention period by changing the number of days in the number field.
   

   
   

Purpose of sending Email

If you mentioned a single purpose for all your mailing lists, you'll see that purpose and its configuration in the subtab. You can edit its configuration by following these steps:

1. From the Navigation Toolbar select Leads and choose Manage consent .
   
2. Click the GDPR setup subtab, then click the Edit  icon in the top-right corner of each purpose.
   
3. From here, you can edit the name of the purpose, the data processing basis, and the description.
   

If you have mentioned single purpose and you want to change to multiple purposes, or vice-versa, follow these steps:

1. From the Navigation Toolbar select Leads and choose Manage consent .
   
2. Click GDPR setup subtab and click the Change button in the purpose section.
   
3. Switch from single to multiple purposes or vice-versa.
   

It is mandatory to categorize your mailing lists by defining the purpose for which you send emails to them. If you haven't categorized your mailing lists by mentioning your purpose, you can do so by following these steps:

1. From the Navigation Toolbar , select Leads and choose Manage Consent .
   
2. Select the GDPR setup subtab to view your configuration.

   • Click the Edit icon corresponding to the purpose to which you want to add the mailing list.
     
   • Select the mailing lists that you wish to add.
     
   • Click the Save button.
     
4. To add mailing lists to a new purpose:
   
   • Click the Add New Purpose button.
