3 Ways Omnisend Helps Your Business Be GDPR-Ready

If you’re like most ecommerce marketers, the GDPR probably has you stressing out right about now.

But if you’re on Omnisend, you don’t have to worry—we’ve got you covered.

We’re fully GDPR-ready, meaning we’ll take care of the GDPR issues related to your email marketing, popups, and much more.

Let’s look at the ways we’re helping our ecommerce marketers be GDPR-compliant.

#1 GDPR-ready consent and re-consent forms

Omnisend makes it easy to contact subscribers you don’t have proof of consent for yet.

You can create a segment of your subscribers and use a special template with pre-filled text to send them an email campaign asking to confirm that they’d like to continue receiving messages from you.

But remember: you can only send re-consent emails until May 25. On that day, the GDPR goes into effect and you won’t be able to send these (promotional) emails anymore.

But if you’ve received re-consent before then, you’ll be fine.

Omnisend will also store all proof-of-consent you receive, now and after the GDPR goes into effect, so that you are compliant.

#2 Easy-to-export customer profiles

It’s important that your customers have easy access to their personal data you. Omnisend makes it easy by allowing easy export options.

You can export customer profile data either in PDF (recommended for customers) or in a JSON file (recommended for more technical uses).

#3 Easy data anonymization

With ecommerce personal data, there are a lot of data points.

If you enable it, Omnisend will anonymize customers so that by looking at the data itself, you won’t be able to identify the customer or subscriber in any way.

How to become GDPR-ready today
