What is the difference between CC and BCC when sending an e-mail?


In the current era, Email is one of the best and most preferred modes of communication for both small and large organizations. The term Cc (Carbon Copy) and Bcc (Blind Carbon Copy) are used in the Email to securely send and receive the information via Email.

Cc stands for Carbon Copy. It is used in the Email to send the carbon copies of the Email to the recipients. In Cc, all recipients are able to see a list of all other recipients.

 ◦ Cc is used when we want to send an Email to someone without addressing them personally.

 ◦ Cc is used for group communication.

 ◦ It keeps all management and employees in the loop even if an Email doesn't concern them directly.

 ◦ Cc is used when we want to receive the responses from the associated email recipients.

 ◦ Cc is used when we want to inform other recipients about the email.



Bcc stands for Blind Carbon Copy, which is similar to Cc. It is also used to send the carbon copies of email to the multiple recipients without seeing a list of recipients.

 ◦ Bcc is used when we want to send email to many recipients at the same time.

 ◦ Bcc is used when we do not want that recipient to see other recipient's email addresses.

 ◦ Bcc is used in large businesses.

 ◦ Bcc mainly used for sharing company newsletters by keeping your email address private.

 ◦ Bcc is used to protect recipient's privacy, when we want to send Emails to unknown recipients.

 ◦ Bcc is used for sending impersonal emails that do not warrant responses.
