In 2025, email marketing is more than just reaching inboxes — it's about reaching everyone, legally and ethically. Accessibility and compliance are no longer optional; they are business-critical. With evolving global privacy laws, rising awareness of digital inclusivity, and smarter spam filters, companies that ignore these principles risk losing trust, customers, and revenue.
This guide explores how MailCub helps businesses create accessible and compliance-ready emails that not only meet regulations but also improve customer experience and engagement.
Why Accessibility & Compliance Matter in 2025
- Accessibility ensures that emails are usable by people with visual, auditory, or cognitive impairments. This means your campaigns reach a broader audience and reflect inclusivity.
- Compliance ensures your email practices follow legal frameworks like GDPR, CAN-SPAM, CASL, and ADA, protecting you from penalties and building trust.
Together, they mean higher deliverability, stronger customer relationships, and a safer reputation for your brand.
Common Accessibility Standards for Emails
When designing emails, you need to consider:
- Readable fonts: Avoid tiny or overly decorative text.
- Color contrast: Ensure text is visible against background colors.
- Alt text for images: Critical for screen readers.
- Logical structure: Use headings, lists, and semantic HTML.
- Mobile-friendly layouts: Responsive design is a must.
With MailCub's accessibility-friendly templates, these best practices are built-in, so you don't need to start from scratch.
Compliance in Email Marketing: What You Must Follow
By 2025, compliance regulations are stricter and more widely enforced:
- GDPR & ePrivacy (EU): Requires clear opt-ins and easy opt-outs.
- CAN-SPAM (US): Mandates accurate sender info and unsubscribe options.
- CASL (Canada): Requires express consent before sending commercial emails.
- ADA (US): Expands accessibility requirements to digital communications.
