## MCP tool

`manitu_account_marketing_set`

### Description for the model

Sets whether manitu may send news and offers by mail to the manitu customer account this connection works in (mailing_misc), and whether the account takes part in manitu's partner programme (affiliate_partner); send only what is to change. Notices about the account's own services and invoices are sent either way. Only when the customer asks for exactly this - it is his consent to advertising; say what will change and ask for an explicit yes first. Returns the settings as manitu_account_marketing_get shows them. Refused if this access may not change the account's base data.

### Arguments

- `mailing_misc` (boolean) - true: manitu may send news and offers by mail; false: not.
- `affiliate_partner` (boolean) - true: the account takes part in the partner programme and gets an id (an existing one stays); false: it leaves it, the id is gone.
