Reply to comment by Menacing_Anus42 in When did it become okay to email you if you perform a transaction? by BF1shY

By paying with a credit card. That's it. I don't give my email, I don't ask for a receipt to be emailed. I just want my purchase T.T

The new Square registers that swivel even ask you if you want to opt into Newsletter emails and i always say no.

Interesting. There could be a way to opt-out directly with Square?

As I said elsewhere, you did give your email, you just don't realize it. Probably at a different business using the same payment processor.

If you ever said yes to opt in even once at once store, even by mistake, or an unscrupulous or lazy store employee ticked the box for you when they swung it back around, it gave permission for all of them.

That said there is a way to tell square to fuck off and disallow it, but I don't remember what because I did it like 3 years ago.

It's the unsubscribe link at the bottom of every email.
