A practical editorial checklist for clearer guest WiFi marketing consent.

Consent rules vary by jurisdiction and by the kind of communication being sent, so this page is not legal advice. The practical design principle is simpler: do not hide a marketing relationship inside the act of requesting internet access.

Practical checklist

  • Make access terms and marketing permission understandable.
  • Do not pre-check optional marketing boxes where that would be inappropriate.
  • Record what a person agreed to and when.
  • Make unsubscribe and preference controls easy to find.
  • Review SMS, email and privacy requirements for the jurisdictions you serve.
Important: Have qualified counsel review your implementation when regulatory compliance is material to the business.
