1. Who we are
Emil is a complete OS for newsletter creators. The operator is named on the imprint. By using the site you agree to these terms and to the privacy policy.
2. The service today
You may:
- Browse the public sponsor directory and related pages we make available.
- Submit a newsletter URL for a free analysis. Availability may be rate-limited.
- Join the waitlist with your email and the public URL of the newsletter you run. We use these to prepare and email a link to your sponsor report, and to tell you about weekly drops and plans when they launch.
Pricing pages describe current plans. Checkout is processed by Stripe. A waitlist signup is not a purchase.
3. Reports and waitlist email
When you request a report for your newsletter we aim to email a link to your full sponsor report within about 24 hours. That timing is an operational target, not a paid service level. You must provide an email you control and a newsletter URL you are entitled to submit.
You can ask us to delete your waitlist requests using the contact details on the imprint. Until then we may email you about the report and about the waitlist you joined.
4. Data on the site
Placement counts, dates, brand names and similar figures come from monitoring publicly available newsletter issues. Emil does not invent or estimate advertising spend. Matches are based on overlap we observe (topics, audience signals, sponsorship activity). They are not a promise that a brand will sponsor you, that contact details exist, or that outreach is lawful in your situation.
Directory rows, scores and illustrative cards (including labelled examples) may be incomplete, delayed or wrong. You remain responsible for how you use the information, including any outreach.
4a. Accounts, paid plans and processors
Creating an account uses a magic-link email. Paid Creator and Pro plans are billed by Stripe. Custom plans are quoted separately. Stripe processes card details; we store the subscription status needed to enforce plan limits. Weekly match email, when enabled, is sent through our email provider. You can cancel from account settings via the Stripe customer portal.
5. Acceptable use
You must not:
- Overload or scrape the service in a way that circumvents rate limits or harms the site.
- Submit URLs or emails in order to harass others or to probe systems you do not control.
- Misrepresent Emil data as a certified ranking, credit file or official market statistic.
6. Intellectual property
The Emil name, mark and the site’s own text and layout are the operator’s. Brand names and newsletter content we reference remain those of their owners. You may not copy the directory as a competing dataset without permission.
7. Availability and liability
The website is provided as available. We may change, throttle or discontinue analysis, the directory or the waitlist. To the extent permitted by law we are not liable for lost profits, lost outreach opportunities, or inaccurate or missing sponsorship data. Liability for intent, gross negligence, injury to life, body or health, and liability under the German Product Liability Act remains unaffected. If you are a consumer, your statutory rights remain unaffected.
8. Law
These terms are governed by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding conflict of law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer resident in another EU country, you also keep the mandatory protections of that country. The language of these terms is English.
9. Changes
We may update these terms for the public website. The date below is the current version. Continued use after a change means you accept the new terms for future use of the site.
