If you run an email list for an institution, your privacy policy is doing more work than you might expect. It is not just there to satisfy a legal requirement. It is the document people turn to when they want to understand how your email system really behaves.

You are no doubt aware that the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force on 25 May 2018. Your inbox was probably full of messages from the various organisations and groups that hold your contact details, checking whether you still wish to receive messages from them and/or updating you about their privacy policy. Our members received an email explaining how Simplelists is complying with the regulation and we have shared that information here on our blog as well.
