Editing Avoid Sending Campaigns (section)

== Step-by-Step Instructions ==
There are two methods to exclude contacts from receiving your email campaigns:

=== Option 1: Exclusion List ===
1. **Add the contact** to your '''exclusion list'''. This ensures they are permanently removed from all future campaigns.
2. The '''exclusion list''' consists of email addresses that are barred from receiving direct and automated campaigns.
3. To learn how to add contacts to the exclusion list, refer to the detailed instructions available [here](https://help.activecampaign.com/hc/en-us/articles/207362110).

=== Option 2: Unsubscribe Contacts from Lists ===
1. **Manually unsubscribe** the contact from all '''lists''' within your ActiveCampaign account.
2. Keep in mind that if the contact decides to resubscribe by completing a form, they will start receiving campaigns sent to that specific list again.
3. Instructions on manually removing contacts from lists can be found [here](https://help.activecampaign.com/hc/en-us/articles/221116287-How-to-manually-add-or-remove-a-contact-s-from-a-list#how-to-manually-add-or-remove-a-contact-s-from-a-list-0-0).
