 * Hi
    I did do a print screen but I cant see a way to attach it so I will try to
   explain. I use the mailchimp addon for Paid Memberships Pro. There are subscriber
   lists but also this “PMPro is installed.
 * For each level below, choose the list(s) that a new user should be subscribed
   to when they register.”
    Does this mean they are autosubscribed because I think
   one of the options is highlighted and I cant find a way to unhighlight it in 
   order to be GDPR compliant Thanks Andrew

 * Hi Andrew,
 * I trust you are well, for future threads like this – please can you post it to
   the Add Ons WordPress support forum.
 * I will try and answer you here, please note that we are not a law firm and I 
   would suggest in following up with the a law firm regarding this.
 * What I would do is the following:
 * 1. Remove the All Users List or Levels List’s selected.
    2. Under the “Opt-in”
   list please choose the following lists you would like users to select to “Opt-
   in” (Users will need to select a checkbox on checkout to be added). 3. Please
   ensure “double opt-in” is enabled, user’s will still have to confirm their registration
   after checkout.
 * This should be enough for GDPR compliance, but I would still recommend in reaching
   out to the relevant law firm for advice.
 * I hope this helps.

 * Thanks Andrew
    I think you might be missunderstanding the question
 * This isnt a legal question its a technical feature question. Legally is simple,
   they should not be opted in without their approval but at the moment the technology
   automatically subscribes them. So I just need to know how to fix that.
    1)The
   reason I messaged you is I cant see a way to remove those lists. I have to have
   the lists in paid memberships pro but they are automatically populated in the
   addin. With the autosubscription option there is no option for me to select they
   dont register for any, the way it is set up one of the lists has to be highlighted.
   2) There is a checkbox but it doesnt matter if they dont select it they are still
   opted in. Ive tested it myself 3) I will set this up but if we can fix the problems
   in 1 and 2, I dont need to make the process a double selection. There’s no need
   for more legal advice on my question and if I had the money to pay for a lawyer
   I would be a very happy man and would have somebody else dealing with all of 
   this for me. You are always really helpful so if you are able to just help me
   with the technical aspects, i would appreciate it, Thanks, Andrew

 * You need to deselect the lists from “All members” as well as the “Membership 
   Level” lists wherever selected. Only lists within “Opt-in Lists” will require
   a user to opt-in.
 * To deselect a list you may hold CTRL + LEft Click, this should deselect the list
   from the settings page. Please _only_have_ the Opt In lists selected with double
   opt-in enabled.
