Possible Data Protection issue with Adobe
Digital Editions v4.
We would like to advise our users of the following issue
which we have recently been made aware of regarding access to EBL content. This
specifically involves the method of downloading content to various devices
using the Adobe Digital Editions v4 software, details via the following link….
EBL have
confirmed to us that they fully understand how important data privacy is to
libraries and that they respect and value the privacy of its users.
EBL are also
aware of the recent privacy concerns around Adobe Digital Editions 4.0 and have
been in contact with Adobe. They are looking into the situation further so they
can provide guidance on how best to proceed when downloading EBL and ebrary
ebooks.
For both EBL
and ebrary, users have the option of using the Bluefire reader, which does not
have the same privacy concerns.
