Hi @AislingF 

Klaviyo uses Amazon AWS (cloudfront) to host images. Even if your email does not include images, Klaviyo will insert one: a cloudfront url to a transparent tracking pixel (gif) that determines if the email has been opened.

In your example, ESET Internet security has deemed that the Cloudfront image URL is spammy. I don’t have experience with ESET but I suspect it’s a config. setting. that the organisation’s IT has set so Cloudfront images are blocked. 

As to whether this is an isolated incident, I would look at your campaign stats to see if open rates are lower than expected. 

Hope that helps

Andy
