In Intercom, we have two different subscription types based on user consent - opt-out and opt-in.

Attaching a contact to an opt-out subscription type will opt that user out from receiving messages related to that subscription type.

Attaching a contact to an opt-in subscription type will opt that user in to receiving messages related to that subscription type.
