Learn how to change your contact's opt-in type.
Overview
A contact's opt-in type is a demonstration of their sign up status and can prove whether or not you can send marketing campaigns to the contact.
Before you change any opt-in types, you must read about and fully understand the different opt-in types available. In many cases, you can't change the opt-in type of a contact without their recorded consent.
