Marketing: A way to differentiate between 'Unsubscribed' and 'Not subscribed' contacts

Hi all,

 

Really struggling with this and hoping someone might be able to help.

 

Is there a way we can differentiate between customers who have never subscribed to marketing vs customers who have previously subscribed but later unsubscribed.

I know this can be done in the admin (screenshot below) for the individual customer you are looking at, but is there a way to export this in the admin or via API? Or is there even a way to infer this somehow given changes in status in fields?

Appreciate any suggestions or workarounds, I believe the accepts marketing status for both of them is false.

There is no way to know unless you've been keeping your own history. You can sort of imply it, if accepts_marketing is false and the accepts_marketing_updated_at date is after the created date, it likely means it was accepted at one time. But no way to know for sure.
