In general that's how it works.

Now the difficult part is: It's not just TikToks mails you have to avoid, but many other companies include ad-tech from TikTok, Facebook, Google, etc. in their mails because they want to measure the effectiveness of their marketing campaigns and sell on the information. Just like every commercial website nowadays includes Google Analytics.
