Privacy and information rights are a critical component of collecting donor and fundraiser information online. The laws set out by your region, country, or state determine your organization's compliance responsibilities.

Funraise is working to ensure that your organization has the tools you need to remain compliant, no matter where you operate. One major area of compliance is explicit marketing opt-in. In most locations, while sending transaction emails without an Opt-in is acceptable - you must receive permission from your supporters to send them marketing communications - which include email, text messages, or other forms of outgoing communication.

Funraise provides a built-in Opt-in checkbox, present on all Giving Forms and Fundraiser sign-up forms.

You can default the opt-in checkbox to true on your Giving Forms (V2) and Fundraiser sign-up forms.

These email automations will only be delivered to Supporters who have opted-in to marketing communications.

Funraise emails that DO NOT respect the marketing opt-in

These email automations will be delivered to Supporters regardless of their opt-in status.
