Patrons can choose to unsubscribe/opt out of emails that are sent through Ludus. This is broken into 3 sections, which they can opt out of:

- **Event Announcements**
  - Event Messages
  - Event Time Messages
- **Fundraiser Updates**
  - Campaign Updates
- **Marketing Communication **
  - Marketing Campaign
  - Marketing Automation

### Unsubscribe from Patron Site

::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
If a patron wishes to unsubscribe, they can go to your Ludus patron site (i.e., "mysubdomain".ludus.com) and click My Account in the top-right corner.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
From here, they can log in to their patron profile by entering their email and receiving their login link:

Once they select View my account, they will be able to scroll near the bottom to unsubscribe/subscribe to a mailing list or email communication they wish.

### Tags and Unsubscribing

While a patron will still have a Tag attached to their profile, they will NOT be included in the tagged audience when a Marketing email is sent if they choose to unsubscribe from those emails. 

So if you have 25 patrons in a tagged audience and one opts out, only 24 patrons will receive that email.
