email newsletter sent directly from forum software , no third parties
- ads in the newsletter
- no email shared
You know you had to have (due to GDPR) in each newsletter email an "unsubscribe" option? Without it, the domain can be penalized and blacklisted easily. Now I don't remember my registration process, but somewhere during it, there must have been a question about consent to receiving non-system (newsletter) emails.
I think this topic is being overly debated for debate sake.
I understand the concerns about privacy but as i stated there will be no 3rd party involved.
Concerning the newsletter, it is a forum newsletter, that is sent as update to the users of the forum, i will soon update and announce that newsletter is required for operation of this forum, and by signing up you are required to accept receiving this newsletter.
There will be an option of unsubscribing that will consist of either deletion of account, or another less drastic option.
