In ACMA’s view an individual providing their information on a screen with a pre-checked tick box does not constitute consent. However as previously described a clear an unambiguous conditional statement such as “To subscribe to our e-newsletter and receive information on our products and services by email provide your email address/mobile telephone number here ….” should be sufficient to obtain consent.

You may also include extra information (such as price lists and a link to your website) if the customer could reasonably expect to receive such information as a result of their enquiry.

It may be easier to make the unsubscribe facility part of your corpora
