In this help guide, we'll discuss in detail about what imprint information is, why you need to add it and how to add and edit imprint information in Zoho MarketingHub.
You must be a Standard Admin role to edit the information on this page.
An Imprint is a type of notice that indicates the authenticity of the sender while also conveying basic legal information about the senders to the recipients.
The Imprint should include the following:
Name of an authorized representative
Email address of the representative
Phone number
Postal address
Tax Identification Number
Organizations and users who wish to send marketing and promotional newsletters to recipients are required to make this basic information available. The Imprint information must be provided in every email that is sent.
Section 5 of the German Telemedia Act, states that it is mandatory that the Imprint information is easily identifiable, directly accessible, and always available in every marketing and promotional newsletter.
Including an Imprint becomes a mandatory step when you wish to send emails to the residents of Europe.
If you comply with laws other than the German Telemedia Act, it is not mandatory to provide all the imprint details. However, the name and email address of an authorized representative is a mandatory information that has to be provided. It is the user's choice to provide other details.
Irrespective of the laws you comply with, providing the imprint information will increase the transparency in communication between senders and recipients.
