What is GDPR Email Compliance?
Quick Answer
EU regulations governing how businesses collect consent and send marketing emails to European residents.
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) requires: explicit, freely given, specific consent for marketing emails; easy withdrawal of consent (one-click unsubscribe); right to access and delete personal data; records of consent for audit purposes; and Data Processing Agreements with email service providers. GDPR applies to any business emailing EU residents regardless of where the business is based. Violations carry fines up to €20M or 4% of global revenue. MisarMail includes consent management and a DPA.
