    Hi @saman27 – thank you a lot for your message.
    My answer might be a bit too theoretical, but in general, the following condition is given: Once you use an email on your website, it will be readable if someone puts in the effort and time to build something for reading out data.

    The practical answer: The goal is to make it always as hard as possible to prevent the theoretical view.
    We do this by using different methods to encode the email so that the bots, that visit your website, have nearly no chance of recognizing your email.

    We build a “bot” for yourselves to confirm if the encoding works well, which you can try too: https://ironikus.com/email-checker/
    Simply include your website URL there and it will show you if there is a URL available, which is unencoded.

    To sum all of it up:
    Yes, our product definitely helps you to protect your emails/content from a big variety of bots. But still, there is a slight chance of your email being read since the only way from preventing that is simply by not putting the information online.

    Hope this brings some clarification. ??
