GDPR "Email Opt-in" language change - As soon as possible
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Our standard opt-in language says:

Here's our standard email opt-in element

Preview on on the web at https://donate.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LandingPage&country=GB&uselang=en

Can we stay in touch?
Yes, the Wikimedia Foundation can send me an occasional email
No, I’m not able to offer future support or advice

The Wikimedia Foundation will send you email updates and tell you if Wikipedia needs your support or advice in the future. Your information is handled in accordance with our donor privacy policy. Each email you receive will include easy unsubscribe options.

The language under NO is creating confusion with our donors. We would like this changed to:

No. Don't send me an occasional email with opportunities to support Wikipedia.

This has been vetted through legal and is approved copy change on this form.

XenoRyet added subscribers: Pcoombe, XenoRyet.

As far as I can tell, this looks like it's only on DonateWiki and not on PaymentsWiki. @Pcoombe, can you let me know if that's right?

Pcoombe claimed this task.

That's correct, this change was made on donatewiki already.
