Hello Community, I added the notice and consent /legitimate interest field on my form. If I set the subscription type to "Corporate news, events and offers" does this capture consent and sets my contacts as marketing contacts if they consent?
Im asking since in the "options" settings you can set all contacts that fill a form out as marketing contacts.
It's a bit misleading how HubSpot defines a marketing contact. "Marketing contacts" are a billing feature in HubSpot. They don't refer to anything that relates to consent. If a contact is a "marketing contact", they count towards your billable contact total and HubSpot will technically allow you to send emails created in the marketing tool. If they're not a "marketing contact", HubSpot will hold these emails back.
Generally it makes sense to have this feature toggled on forms, otherwise HubSpot will not let you send emails to these contacts. It doesn't have to do anything with consent however.
Best regards!
