Re: Amazon know when you open their emails?!
The HTTP request will also contain a user-agent header which provides a brief description of your browser and operating system.
So, from one embedded image systems like Streak can determine:
Who opened their email
What time the email was opened
Where it was opened
What sort of device it was opened on
The answer to protecting yourself from this kind of tracking is straightforward - don't load the images.
You can do this by forcing all your email to render as plain text or by allowing it to render HTML without images. |
