The registration form

The form has three fields: your email address, your preferred language and your topics of interest. Only the address is mandatory. The other fields are used to personalize the content.

A box states that you agree to receive the newsletter. It is never ticked by default, in accordance with data protection rules.

Double confirmation

After the form is submitted, a message containing a confirmation link is sent to you. Until you have clicked, the registration is not active. This step prevents registrations made by mistake or without a third party's knowledge.

The link remains valid for several days. If it expires, you simply need to register again.

If the message does not arrive

First check your junk mail folder. Some corporate filters hold back bulk messages. Add the sender's address to your contacts to receive subsequent issues normally.

If the message still has not arrived after a few hours, contact the service through the online form, stating the address used.

Registration by an organization

An organization may register a generic address, for example that of a documentation service. We recommend designating a person responsible for relaying the newsletter, so that unsubscription and preference changes are properly handled.

For bulk distribution, an administration of a Member State may contact the Secretariat to arrange a grouped mailing.
