Double Opt-In Process for Newsletters and Content

We take your privacy seriously and want to ensure you are in complete control of your information. That’s why we use a double opt-in process for collecting email addresses and names for our newsletter and content such as downloadable eBooks:

Initial Opt-In: On certain pages or popups, you may see an opportunity to subscribe to our newsletter or download an ebook. By entering your name and email address in the designated fields, you are indicating your initial interest.
Subscription Confirmation: Following your initial opt-in, we will send a confirmation email to the address you provided. This email will contain a clear call to action, typically a button labeled “Confirm Subscription” or similar. Clicking on this confirmation link verifies your consent to receive our newsletter or access our gated content such as eBooks.
