[NEW] Canada Express Consent
- This work was done in order to ensure that we stay compliant with Canadian spam laws. When this System Permission is turned on, there will be a new field on the Talent Profile that shows if the talent has given consent, implied consent (web apply), or has not given consent. This will allow clients to send out mass marketing campaigns that do not include clients who haven't given consent, keeping them in compliance.
- What do these updates include?
- A section on the Talent Profile to manually update the consent
