Composing an e-mail, and everything it carries
An e-mail is not just content: it carries images, an online version, an unsubscribe link and a preference page. All of it is produced inside the platform’s perimeter, with no external resource and no code execution.
Template editor
A declarative syntax, checked when saving, never at send time.
- Search and replace in the source, assisted insertion of the available variables, live preview on a real or fictitious contact.
- No code execution: variables, filters, blocks and includes, and nothing else. Whatever the engine does not know is refused.
- An error is refused when saving, with line and column. A template that ships is a template that compiles.
- Reusable fragments — header, footer, legal notices — shared across a space’s templates.
- Content reads the latest event of each type received by the contact: the amount of the last order, the date of the next appointment, the detail of a basket. The message is written from what just happened, with no extra request.
- A marketing template without an unsubscribe link is refused; so is an unverified sending domain.
- A text version is produced alongside the HTML, and the unsubscribe headers are set by the platform, not by the author.
What a variable cannot be
Attributes of a sensitive class are not available at render time: they are not inserted into a message. Differentiation goes through the choice of journey, never through a merge variable — an e-mail in transit is the most exposed copy of the most sensitive data.
Engagement variables — opened, clicked — are only served for contacts whose tracking consent is valid at render time. For the others they stay empty, and the message stays correct.
HTML kit import
A file or an archive delivered by an agency becomes a draft, ready to be corrected.
- Images from the archive are moved into the space’s library and relative references are rewritten.
- Local stylesheets are inlined into the document; scripts, frames, forms and event handlers are removed.
- No remote resource is ever fetched: external addresses are listed in the report, for you to upload yourself.
- Nothing is saved as a template until you have reviewed it: the import produces a draft and a report of what is left to do.
- Image formats are recognised from the bytes themselves, and metadata — including a photograph’s location — is stripped.
File library
Images hosted inside the perimeter, served with no cookie and no external dependency.
- Organised in folders, searchable, reusable from one template to another and in public pages.
- Served from the space’s domain, with a media type set by the server, a long cache and no cookie.
- Raster formats only — formats that can carry a script are refused.
- Content addressing: the same file uploaded twice is stored once, and the space’s quota applies.
- Files stay inside the perimeter: no external object storage, no third-party content delivery network.
Branded public pages
You do the styling, the platform generates the form, the tokens and the states.
- An unsubscribe page and a preference page per space, with your logo, your colours and your wording, per language.
- The preference page lets people choose their subscriptions, choose what may be measured, or unsubscribe from everything. Every change writes a consent act with its exact wording.
- The form, the tokens and the states are produced by the platform: a space never supplies a whole page — no phishing on our domain, no token leakage.
- No external resource and no script: logo served from the same host, inline styles, a strict content security policy.
- One-click unsubscribe (RFC 8058) and the matching headers accompany every marketing e-mail — immediate effect, with no intermediate page.
What a space never supplies itself
- The whole page: the form, the tokens and the states are generated by the platform, so that no page hosted on its domain can be used for phishing.
- A script, a frame or an event handler: they are refused when saving and stripped at render time.
- A remote resource: the logo comes from the library and is served from the same host.
- The wording of the unsubscribe link in a marketing e-mail, whose presence is checked before sending.
Frozen versions and the online version
What was sent must be readable as it was, without keeping a copy of the message.
Every send freezes the version of the template and of its fragments: changing a footer tomorrow does not rewrite what went out yesterday.
The online version of an e-mail is rendered on demand from that frozen version and the contact’s data at the time of the request. No rendered message body is ever kept: the most exposed copy of the most sensitive data does not exist. That page inserts no pixel.
