Marketing permission and GDPR compatibility
Marketing permission or newsletter consent from customers is recorded either during order confirmation or through customer webhooks. In case of order confirmation, the consent is received through the
marketingPermission flag. These fields tell Nosto if the customer has given their GDPR compliant consent for receiving marketing emails.Consent - Order confirmation
When a customer is placing an order for any product, the checkout page will collect the customer's consent for receiving the marketing emails as shown below,
