ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause enforces a hard stop on continued messaging to individuals who have opted out, protecting the opt-out decision as a binding restriction on the sender.

Interpretive note: The excerpt is a list item without an explicit prohibition verb contained within it. The restriction is inferred from placement in a list of prohibited sending targets. The claim is that unsubscribed individuals are a prohibited recipient category; the precise surrounding prohibition language is not present in this excerpt.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Individuals who have unsubscribed from a messaging program cannot be messaged through Klaviyo by that sender.
