    Web beacons

    Chris Lewis Fire & Security uses web beacons to track whether recipients of its marketing communications have opened the HTML email. When the email is opened a part of the code that makes up the HTML page calls a web server to load the web beacon which then generates a record showing that the email has been viewed.

    Web beacons can also be used to record anonymous user information such as IP address, email software, browser type, time/date stamp in addition to personally identifiable information such as the recipients email address.

    If you do not wish to receive web beacons you will need to set your email client to disable HTML images or refuse HTML emails.
