Thank you for that!
Would like to edit the text as well - need to remove "AND NEWSLETTER" and modify text below (see image).
the email option(s) are already ticked - and cannot be unticked
I found and edited im.xml as well as notification.xml. (were the only places a word search found) made the edits and uploaded to server - cleared cache - but text is still the same.
Apparently i can't insert the code as its being flagged as an external link - images attached...
thanks in advance for your help
