Clarification on Contact Consent for Email Campaigns in Zoho Campaigns

I’m currently setting up an email marketing campaign for my organization using Zoho Campaigns, and while going through the process, I came across the requirement of having contact consent before sending out emails.

I’d like to get some clarity and guidance on the following:

  1. Can I send newsletters to all the contacts in my list ?

  2. If not, what is the recommended way to collect consent from these contacts using Zoho Campaigns?

  3. What are the possible consequences (technical or compliance-related) if emails are sent to contacts who haven’t explicitly provided consent to receive marketing communication?

Looking forward to your guidance.
