http://eepurl.com/dmHmnj to join the Harberton Village email circulation
which
uses the MailChimp service and is compliant with the General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR) in force with effect from 25 May 2018.
MailChimp allows you to subscribe / unsubscribe automatically. After completing the form initially,
you will be asked to complete the subscription process by clicking a link in an
email MailChimp will send you. It's as simple as that.
The MailChimp system ensures total confidentiality of all email addresses.
Your email address will never be revealed unless you
specifically include it in your message for circulation, or agree to it being
included. The aim of the Circulation is to offer a means of immediate local communication for practically
any purpose.
The email circulars are very much
specific to the village and contain personal small ads (e.g. free to a good
home, for sale, wanted,
nothing 'large-scale' commercial), lost & found, public notices, events, anything particular happening at the pub, church matters, occasional
nature notes... all that sort of thing. They are also irregular - there might be
3 in a week, then nothing for a week.
The Harberton Village Email Circulation continues to grow steadily. In principle it covers the same area as the website (website coverage area, essentially the Harberton side of the parish). Well over half of the 300+ households in that area are already covered by the circulation.
Please note: If you are a Gmail user,
the e-circulars may well sometimes arrive in your 'Promotions' inbox folder
rather than 'Primary' - if you see these separately - or possibly even in your
Spam folder, so do please check the latter if you think you are not receiving
what you should be receiving.
Be aware that some Email Systems may
sometimes class the Village Emails as Spam/Junk
Because the emails are sent to a relatively large number (in local terms) of
addresses at the same time using MailChimp, they may sometimes finish up in your
Spam/Junk folder, so do please check there if you think you may not be receiving
them.
MailChimp is a commercial tool which large companies pay to use for marketing
purposes (hence the occasional spam classification), but is free to use for a
relatively small number (in commercial terms) of addresses, whilst also
observing a monthly total send limit.
