Pixels in our HTML emails
In order to improve the emails and marketing we send you, our html emails may contain a campaign-unique ‘web beacon pixel’. The single pixel is deleted when an email is opened, or a particular link is clicked on. By counting the number of pixels which are deleted we can assess which of our emails are more popular and what advertising our readers prefer. We can also inform our advertisers how many readers have clicked on their advertisements.
As with cookies, the pixel doesn’t harm your computer and it doesn’t identify individual users. We currently only provide our emails in HTML format, so if you do not wish to receive the pixel, you would need to unsubscribe from our emails.
