Opted Out Users

Profiles for users opted out of receiving your messaging show the opt-out information before the general profile information. The Optout information section includes:

• The opt-out status. These are defined in the following section.
• An opt-out reason, which is a system-generated value that explains how a user opted out. The reasons are defined in the following section.
• The opt out date.

Opt-out Status

• Optout (All) The user has opted out of all messaging. This includes any transactional messaging like purchase receipts and password reset messages.
• Optout (Marketing) The user has opted out of marketing messaging. They will still receive transactional messaging.

Note: There are two opt-out types that may appear in a user's profile if they opted out before 2018. These are Opt-out (Blast) and Opt-out (Template). Both types have been deprecated.

Opt-out Reasons

• API: The user opted out via the unsubscribe page connected to a Hosted Page (most common reason) or via an API call.
• Unsubscribe-email: The user opted out by clicking the unsubscribe link provided by the ISP and the ISP sends the information by feedback loop.

Additional User Profile Data

There are a few more sections that will populate with data as your users engage with your content. Predictions This section includes an overview of the engagement and e-commerce predictions available for an individual user. A Prediction Manager subscription is required to use this feature; see the Prediction Manager Overview for more information. Engagement Get an overview of a user's engagement with your content, including device information. Locations Map your user's location when they interact with your content. The majority location is also seen in the general user information under Location.

User Profile Tabs

The tabbed sections elaborate on the information presented in the basic User Profile view. Interests The Interests tab contains both a word cloud and a list view of the user's interests, pulled from your content tags.You'll see up to 100 words in the word cloud, and up to 15 interests in the side column.


Interests are the content tags for which the user has shown affinity, broken out into the following subcategories:

• Common interests - Interests of the user which exist within the top 100 interests across your user base.
• Unique interests - Interests of the user which exist beyond the top 500 interests across your user base. These are the least commonly shared interests of the user relative to all other users in your account.

Each interest in the list view is displayed with a numerical factor representing the degree of interest compared to the average across your user base. For example "Soccer (6.5)" would indicate that the user is 6.5x more interested in Soccer than your average user. While this interest factor may have any value, only those interests that have a factor of 2 or more are displayed. Predictions A Prediction Manager subscription is required to use this feature; see the Prediction Manager Overview for more information. The behaviors shown in the Prediction tab include interactions with your content, such as email open rates, opt-outs, and pageviews. Each of the tiles corresponds to a user prediction in the system. For more information on predicted behaviors, see the User Predictions documentation. For key use cases, see the Use Case documentation.
