Can Squarespace Collect Email Addresses?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 5:37 am

The short answer is yes, Squarespace can collect email addresses from visitors to your website. However, there are a few things to keep in mind before you start collecting email addresses from your website visitors.

First, you’ll need to make sure that you have a privacy policy in place that clearly states how you will use the email addresses you collect. This is important because it will help ensure that your visitors understand how their personal information will be used, and it will help protect you from any potential legal issues.

PRO TIP: If you are using Squarespace to collect email addresses, be aware that there are some potential risks. First, if you are using a third-party email service (such as Gmail or Yahoo), your email addresses may be collected by that service. Second, if you are using Squarespace to collect payment information, your credit card or PayPal information may also be collected. Finally, if you are using Squarespace to collect customer information, your customer’s name and address may be collected.

Second, you’ll need to make sure that you have a way to collect the email addresses from your visitors. There are a few different ways to do this, but one of the most popular methods is to use a form on your website.

You can either use a third-party service like Wufoo or Gravity Forms, or you can use Squarespace’s built-in forms tool. Either way, you’ll need to make sure that the form is properly configured so that it collects the email address field from your visitors.

Finally, you’ll need to make sure that you have a way to store the email addresses you collect. Again, there are a few different options here, but one of the most popular is to use a third-party service like MailChimp or AWeber. These services will allow you to store your email addresses in their database and then send out emails to your list on a regular basis.

So, if you’re looking to start collecting email addresses from your website visitors, Squarespace can definitely help you out. Just keep in mind the three things we mentioned above and you’ll be well on your way.
