True or false? Contacts that have opted-out of communication can be imported into HubSpot.

The statement is true because contacts who have opted out of communication can still be imported into HubSpot. However, the platform will respect their communication preferences, which means they will not receive any marketing emails or outreach initiatives from the account holders after being imported. This functionality is important for maintaining compliance with regulations such as the CAN-SPAM Act or GDPR, which outlines the rights consumers have over their communication preferences.

Option C concerning prior opt-in status is not necessary for the import process itself; it is primarily relevant for whether or not to communicate with those contacts after import. The notion of needing special permissions in option D does not apply in this context, as the ability to import is granted regardless of a contact's communication preferences.
