Introduction and use of blind carbon copy(BCC)

update date : 2024-06-06

 

I believe you have had this experience. In some letters passed around by friends, you will definitely see some people who are not related to you in the "Recipient" field.

The publication of emails without their consent can cause distress to the recipients in some situations, but many people ignore this little "etiquette".

From the perspective of the implementation of personal information laws, email accounts that are sufficient to identify specific natural persons are also an indispensable part of all colleagues' business. In fact, the above situation can be avoided or protected by using the blind carbon copy (BCC) function.

Since group emails are sent frequently on campus, it is recommended to use blind copies when sending group emails.

  • What is the blind carbon copy(BCC)

Blind carbon copy (Bcc) is the abbreviation for blind carbon copy. If you include a recipient's name in this box on a message, a message will be delivered to that recipient and the recipient's name will not be visible to other recipients of the message.

  • Reasons for using BCC
    Protect privacy: Keep the list of recipients confidential without revealing their identities, and [blind copies] help respect the privacy of others. If you are sending emails to multiple people or sending more sensitive emails (for example: job vacancy notices or reward and punishment meeting notices), you can use [Bind Copy] to keep the identities of potential recipients confidential.
    Reduce spam: If you hide the recipient's name by listing it in the BCC box, no one will be able to copy the recipient's email address from your message, which reduces the chance of collection and misuse.
