MarketingPlatform (formerly Ubivox) is a Danish email marketing platform serving Danish SMBs and mid-market with drag-and-drop editor, marketing automation, and Danish-language UI. The unsubscribe mechanism uses the {UNSUBSCRIBELINK} merge tag auto-injected into every campaign footer, and MarketingPlatform emits RFC 8058 headers automatically for authenticated sending domains. Consent is tracked at the contact level with Danish Datatilsynet GDPR enforcement. This guide covers the tag, the Danish market focus, and how to verify the setup end to end.

Watch out for this

MarketingPlatform Danish Datatilsynet enforcement combined with GDPR quarantines imported contact lists without documented consent. Danish senders migrating from other ESPs must provide GDPR documentation for each contact. Formerly branded Ubivox, legacy accounts may reference older documentation. Analogous to APSIS Nordic regulatory-first patterns with Danish-first UX.

Testing your MarketingPlatform.com unsubscribe link

  1. Send a test message to a controlled Gmail address you own via the MarketingPlatform.com campaign preview action
  2. Click the footer unsubscribe link and confirm the opt-out on the landing page
  3. Check the subscriber or contact record: the status should be Unsubscribed within seconds
  4. Verify the RFC 8058 headers in Gmail: open the message, click three dots, then Show original. Look for List-Unsubscribe and List-Unsubscribe-Post: List-Unsubscribe=One-Click

MarketingPlatform default templates include the unsubscribe link in the footer, but custom HTML templates require the tag inserted manually.

  1. Open your campaign or template in the MarketingPlatform editor.
  2. Add or edit a text block in the footer where the unsubscribe link should appear.
  3. Insert the merge tag {UNSUBSCRIBELINK}. MarketingPlatform replaces it at send time with a signed URL scoped to the contact.
  4. Wrap it in an anchor: <a href="{UNSUBSCRIBELINK}">Afmeld</a> for Danish, Unsubscribe for English.
  5. Configure the sender identity under Indstillinger > Afsenderprofiler.
  6. Send a test to a seed address and verify the rendered link routes to the MarketingPlatform-hosted preference page.

Danish Datatilsynet GDPR enforcement

MarketingPlatform Danish Datatilsynet enforcement combined with GDPR quarantines imported contact lists without documented consent. Danish senders migrating from other ESPs must provide GDPR documentation for each contact. Formerly branded Ubivox, legacy accounts may reference older documentation. Analogous to APSIS Nordic regulatory-first patterns with Danish-first UX. Datatilsynet fines up to 4% of global revenue for major GDPR violations make platform-level enforcement essential for Danish mid-market senders.

RFC 8058 one-click headers

MarketingPlatform added RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe automatically ahead of the Google and Yahoo February 2024 requirements. The List-Unsubscribe and List-Unsubscribe-Post headers inject on every marketing send from domains authenticated under Indstillinger > Afsenderprofiler. SPF and DKIM records must be verified. Danish data residency defaults align with Datatilsynet data localization preferences.

Ubivox legacy and rebrand context

MarketingPlatform rebranded from Ubivox to reflect broader marketing automation positioning. Legacy Ubivox accounts continue functioning under the MarketingPlatform branding without template changes required. Documentation may reference either brand name depending on the age of the resource. New accounts should reference the current MarketingPlatform branding for consistency with the product interface and support communications.
