Email Acceptable Use Policy Writers
What are Email Acceptable Use Policies?
Email acceptable use policies outline the rules for using work email accounts responsibly, securely and in line with organisational and legal requirements.
These policies help protect company systems from misuse, maintain professional standards, and reduce the risk of data breaches or reputational harm caused by inappropriate communications.
What Do Email Acceptable Use Policies Cover?
An email acceptable use policy typically includes:
-
Rules for business and limited personal use
-
Prohibited content and unacceptable behaviour
-
Security measures such as password protection and encryption
-
Handling of confidential or sensitive information
-
Monitoring and access by the organisation
-
Retention, deletion and archiving of email data

Links to IT security, data protection and disciplinary policies
A clear policy ensures employees understand their responsibilities when using company email, supporting legal compliance and professional communication.
It also helps the organisation demonstrate accountability under data protection laws, particularly when emails contain personal or commercially sensitive information.
By promoting proper use of email systems, businesses can reduce IT security risks, maintain workplace standards and respond appropriately if a breach of policy occurs.
An effective email acceptable use policy supports a secure and respectful digital working environment and forms part of a wider approach to cyber awareness and information governance.
