Imported opt out hooks

When configuring the vendors on your U.S. Multi-State Privacy vendor list, your organization is given an option to import vendors from an existing vendor list. In addition those imported vendors, you can also import any reject actions configured for those vendors as opt out hooks for your U.S. Multi-State Privacy vendor list.

If your organization decides to import reject actions alongside vendors from another vendor list, the reject actions will automatically appear in the table for Vendors in the Opt In/Opt Out Hooks tab.
