Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What exactly is a Hybrid Mail Service?
Hybrid Mail is an outsourced service designed to centralise print streams for businesses, optimising postal and stationery costs. It streamlines the process of printing and mailing documents, whether in bulk or individually, without necessitating any change to existing business processes.
Is there a minimum volume requirement for using Hybrid Mail?
No, once you are subscribed and document templates are created there are no minimum daily volume requirements. You can send a single letter or multiple letters for printing and posting as needed.
How secure is the hybrid mail service, and how does it comply with GDPR?
Security is a top priority with our hybrid mail service. We comply with GDPR and other data protection regulations by ensuring all documents are encrypted using AES-256 encryption, both in transit and at rest. Only authorised users can decrypt documents, with encryption keys uniquely generated for each document.
Can the system print and post documents in any format?
Our system can accept print-ready files in both Word and PDF formats and can process mail merges online, making it highly versatile and accommodating for various document types.
How does the hybrid mail service ensure the correct document reaches the right recipient?
The service utilises barcodes for page-level tracking, ensuring the right document is always placed in the right envelope. This accuracy is further supported by item-level reporting for audit purposes and a secure solution that includes item-level encryption.
What postal services can be used with this service?
You have the flexibility to use the postal service of your choice, whether it's 1st or 2nd class or a Downstream Access Delivery service. Royal Mail is used for the "Final Mile" delivery, guaranteeing that your documents reach their destination reliably.
How does the service support remote and hybrid working?
The service supports remote and hybrid working by allowing users to send documents for printing and posting or for digital delivery from any location. This flexibility is supported by our SaaS solution, which doesn't require any changes to your existing IT infrastructure.
