About consent
If a profile wants to receive communication regarding a specific topic over a specific channel (email or SMS), they must first give consent. The consent information is saved in APSIS One on a profile level along with the topic and the channel the consent is given for.
The following consent types are supported by APSIS One:
opt-in
- profile permits communicationopt-out
- profile forbids any communicationpending-opt-in
- communication permission waits for the profile to confirm it (not supported by APSIS One API yet)confirmed-opt-in
- profile permits communication which they also confirmed (not supported by APSIS One API yet)
Confirming the consent, also known as double opt-in, is usually done via a link in an email that is sent to the profile.
