Double Opt In

We’re excited to announce that Double Opt-In is currently in development for Splash events. This upcoming feature adds an extra layer of consent for your guests: before anyone can RSVP to your event, they’ll need to explicitly agree to receive communications from you. Only after this consent is given will their registration be confirmed.

Why are we building this? The Double Opt-In feature is designed to help you meet the highest standards of privacy compliance, especially for events with European or German attendees, where regulations are particularly strict. By making this an optional setting at the event level—and potentially as an organization-wide default—you’ll have the flexibility to tailor compliance to your needs.

Who is this for? If you’re an event organizer or marketer managing events with international guests, especially in regions with tough privacy laws, this feature is for you. It’s also ideal for organizations that want to demonstrate a strong commitment to data privacy and transparent communication.

What’s the value? With Double Opt-In, you’ll:

• Reduce legal risk by ensuring your events comply with European and German privacy regulations.

• Build trust with your attendees by giving them clear control over their communication preferences.

• Easily manage consent data, including handling guests who haven’t opted in and setting data retention policies for unconfirmed guests.

Why should you care? If your events attract a global audience, Double Opt-In helps protect your organization from regulatory penalties and enhances your reputation for responsible data handling. Plus, it empowers your guests, making them more likely to engage with your event communications.
