The Acquisition Form part enables your organization to collect constituent information — personal data, constituent attribute information, and communication consent preferences — without requiring constituents to register or log in to your site. You can then download the data to your constituent database in Blackbaud CRM via the Constituent Update Batch process. When you commit the batch, data captured on the Acquisition Form is written to the constituent's record — the record is created for new constituents and updated for existing constituents.
Note: Consider using the Acquisition Form part — instead of the Email Signup Form — to capture email signups going forward. The Email Signup Form will be deprecated in a future release.
