Hi Guys, I hope you are well and that you are having a great week. Did you know there’s a way for people to tell if you’ve opened their emails or not? They can also see the following: 1. How many times you opened the email 2. Your location each time when you opened the email 3. If you forwarded it to anyone else This practice which is employed by both marketing companies and individuals is called pixel tracking and there is a really easy way to block it on Gmail:
Log into your Gmail accountClick the gear icon in the upper righthand cornerSelect SettingsScroll down until you see the Images rowSelect Ask before displaying external imagesMake sure to scroll down and save changes
I hope this tip helps you and if you need anything at all please let us know. Also, please do pass this tip on to your family and friends. Email tracking is extremely invasive to anyones privacy and it is really easy to block.
