Edit your footer settings

Not all of the content in an email or sign-up form footer is editable, but you're able to customize a few things.

1. Click the profile icon in the lower-left and select Account settings from the drop-down.
   
   
    
2. Scroll down to the Footer settings section and click Edit.
   
   
    
3. Click the toggle to include or remove the “Update Profile” link in your email footer. 
4. Click the toggle to turn on/off the Unsubscribe comment box.
   Note: You aren't able to remove the "Unsubscribe" link from your footer. To comply with Constant Contact’s anti-spam policy and the CAN-SPAM Act, every email is required to contain a link that allows contacts to opt-out of future mailings.
5. Update the default fine print that displays on your sign-up forms. For example:

   By submitting this form, you are consenting to receive marketing emails from Half Moon Yoga Studio.

6. Enter a link for your privacy policy, or click the folder icon to upload a privacy policy document to your Library.
7. Click Save.
   
   
    

What's included in an email footer

By default, your email footer contains:

• Your organization's name and address. This information can be set for all your emails by updating the organization details within your account settings. 

  Tip: You can customize the organization details in the footer of an individual email without making changes to your account settings. This is handy if you have multiple locations or different departments within your organization that better fit your content.

• An “Unsubscribe" link to allow contacts to opt-out of future mailings. By default, a comment box is included to let contacts who click the “Unsubscribe” link the ability to provide feedback about why they’re unsubscribing, or you can disable the feedback box.
• An “Update Profile" link, which gives your email recipients the ability to edit their contact details and choose which mailing lists they want to be part of, or you can disable the link.
• A link to your privacy policy, which can be added or removed using the steps above.
• A link to Constant Contact's privacy policy.
