# How do I edit the email footer or unsubscribe link?

> Hover the automatic footer in the editor and click Customize auto footer to change its text. The address and social links come from Settings → Product info. Marketing emails always keep an unsubscribe link.

If your email has no unsubscribe link, Sequenzy adds a footer with one when it
sends. To change its wording, hover the footer in the email editor and click
**Customize auto footer**. To design the footer yourself, add a **Footer**
block.

## Change the automatic footer's text

In the **Auto footer** dialog you can edit:

* **Reason text.** The line that says why the person receives the email. The
  default is "You received this email because you were subscribed to" followed
  by your company name.
* **Unsubscribe label.** The text of the unsubscribe link.
* **Privacy label.** The text of the privacy policy link.

Choose **Save as company default** to use the same wording in every email.

## Change the address, website or social links

These come from your company settings, not from the email. Open
**Settings → Product info**:

* **Social links** holds the URL for each network.
* **Legal & compliance** holds your **Physical address** and
  **Privacy policy URL**.

Marketing emails need a physical mailing address in the footer to comply with
laws such as CAN-SPAM. Use a real address where you can receive mail.

## Build your own footer

Add a **Footer** block from the block list and choose the Social, Simple or
Full style. An email that contains its own unsubscribe link does not get the
automatic footer.

To place the link anywhere, for example on a button, use these merge tags:

| Merge tag | Link |
| - | - |
| `{{UNSUBSCRIBE_URL}}` | Unsubscribes the recipient |
| `{{PREFERENCES_URL}}` | Opens the page where they choose which lists to keep |

## Can I remove the unsubscribe link?

Not from marketing emails. If a campaign or sequence email goes out without
one, the automatic footer is added at send time. Transactional emails, such as
receipts and password resets, do not need one. See
[Transactional vs Marketing](https://docs.sequenzy.com/concepts/transactional-emails.md#transactional-vs-marketing).
