Setup your contact information (in your email footer)
To setup your contact information:
At the top of the Account Information page, click Email footer. You can also access this section by clicking
- The contact details entered in that section will appear in the footer of your emails and will be used to properly identify your company.
- These informations are necessary to be CASL compliant. CASL came into force on July 1st 2014.
- The name written down in the "Company" field will, by default, be used as the Sender in the inbox of your contacts. The email in the "Email" field will be used as the default return address. Both of these informations can be changed when scheduling your email, as needed.
- Once this is done, you never should change these informations unless your offices have moved or changed their contact information. Contact our customer service if you have further questions about this matter.
I’m Self-employed…should I write down a postal address?
Yes. CASL requires a postal address as part of a proper identification. You can, however, use a postal box if you possess one and want to avoid writing your home address in the footer of your emails.

- Total of contacts in your account;
- Total of express consents;
- Total of implied consents;
- Total of contacts without a consent expiration date;
- Expired implied consents;
- Implied consents expiring during the upcoming month.
You therefore need to take full advantage of the period of time the consent is still valid to obtain an express consent from your customer. A few tools, such as our consent blocks and marketing automation consent campaign scenarios, are offered to help you achieve this goal.
Note that there is no action done by the system to clean your list of expired consents. Each of our customers is at discretion of taking the appropriate actions to manage the consent expiration properly.
Also, it's important to know that the system can only calculate the expiry date for implied consents if you have defined a consent date and source in your contact profile. To learn how to update your contact's consent and learn more about the sources of consent available in the app, click here.
The list of contacts with expired implied consents and consent expiring within the upcoming 30 days are available at any given time on your Dashboard. Under the "Number of contacts" box, you will find the number of expired consents and the number of consents expiring in less than a month. For each of these categories, click the link available to see the contacts involved. You will then have access to action features such as deleting contacts or adding them to a group.
To stop receiving the monthly consent expiration report:
It’s not mandatory to receive this report. You can subscribe to it or remove your address at any given time.
- Click the gear icon at the top-right of your screen and select Notifications.
- Remove the email address found in the field under the "Receive monthly consent expiration report",
- Click the "Save" button on the bottom of the page to save your changes.
