Terms and Conditions
Privacy
CloudSecList takes the privacy of readers very seriously. There is a conscious effort NOT to collect additional information about the CloudSecList readership outside of an email address (which, of course, will NOT be shared with advertisers, ever). In addition, CloudSecList does not track individual open and click rates, but only the global (and anonymized) ones.
For more information, you can refer to CloudSecList's Privacy Policy.
Integrity and Unbiased View
I want to make it clear that, for me, it is of paramount importance for sponsorships not to impact the quality or unbiased nature of CloudSecList negatively.
I generally do not endorse companies or products. CloudSecList aims to keep security professionals informed about cloud security and its intersection with AI. Content is included in the newsletter exclusively based on its technical merits and usefulness to readers.
Sponsoring an issue does not give any influence on the rest of the newsletter. A competitor's tool, blog post, or talk may be referenced in the issue you sponsor. Similarly, an article that negatively covers your company or product may be included in the issue you sponsor.
Ad Timing
The newsletter is typically sent on Sundays. There may be weeks where the newsletter is sent earlier or later due to life circumstances, travel, or timezone differences, but this is the exception, not the rule.
Ad Format
You can include a brief blurb (400–600 characters) about your company, product, event, or job opening.
The blurb will be placed in a clearly demarcated section, and will be included in the following:
- The newsletter sent to CloudSecList subscribers.
- The related post on cloudseclist.com (available from the Past Issues page).
