Email marketing and newsletter platform for WordPress and Joomla

AcyMailing 11.0 ships a full security rework and GDPR-compliant pixel tracking, then patches rapidly.

Current state
AcyMailing is a Joomla-based email marketing extension that shipped version 11.0 on July 30 with a complete security codebase rework and a new GDPR pixel tracking compliance option. Five patch releases followed in 35 days (11.0.1 through 11.0.5), stabilizing the major version. The latest patch (11.0.5) adds anonymous statistics — opens, clicks, and sends counted globally without storing individual subscriber tracking data — deepening the GDPR compliance posture.
Where it's heading
GDPR and privacy compliance is the clear product priority in the v11 arc. Consent-aware subscription forms, IP collection toggles, and now anonymous statistics all point toward positioning for stricter European regulatory environments. The REST API is receiving steady investment (better error messages, improved user fetching) suggesting a secondary push toward headless or API-integrated usage.
Prediction
The anonymous statistics work may be followed by cookie-less or server-side analytics support. The REST API improvements signal a potential push toward developer-focused, API-first email workflows as an alternative to the traditional Joomla admin UI.
