Can news sites see that I subscribe to their feeds via Feedly? What info do they see? (e-mail address, name, etc).
When you subscribe to news sites via Feedly, the news sites themselves typically do not see that you are specifically using Feedly to access their feeds. Here's what they might see and what they don't:
What News Sites See:
- IP Address: News sites can see the IP address from which the feed request is made. However, this is usually the IP address of Feedly's servers, not your personal IP address, because Feedly acts as a proxy.
- User Agent: The user agent string sent by Feedly might indicate that the request is coming from a feed reader, but it does not specifically identify you or your account.
- Feed Requests: News sites can see that their feeds are being accessed, but they cannot determine who specifically is accessing them unless they implement additional tracking measures.
What News Sites Don't See:
- Email Address: Your email address is not shared with news sites when you subscribe via Feedly.
- Name: Your name is also not shared with news sites.
- Personal Details: Feedly does not share any personal details with the news sites you subscribe to.
In summary, news sites can see that their feeds are being accessed, but they do not have direct access to your personal information like email or name when you use Feedly123.
