Manage newsletter subscribers
As a best practice you should manage your subscription list regularly, and make sure to process any requests to unsubscribe. In some jurisdictions, it is required by law that requests to unsubscribe are processed within a specific time period.
You can easily manage your subscribers using a simple list of active subscriptions. When a customer submits an unsubscribe request, you can simply apply an Unsubscribe action to one or more selected subscriptions.
In single-site setups with multiple store views, a customer account subscription can be associated with a specific store view.
In multi-store and multi-site setups with a global customer account scope, a customer account can be subscribed to newsletters for multiple sites/stores. In this case, you may want to edit the customer account to manage a group of subscriptions or cancel a subscription for a specific site/store to honor a request.
If you want to use a third-party service to send newsletters, you can export your subscription list as a CSV or XML file.
