How can I prevent email Senders know if I opened an their emails (even if I click No to Receipts)

Hi Guys!

From DuckDuckGo a “read me” file of emails protection, I notices a message: "learn that 70% of emails contain trackers that can detect when you’ve opened a message, where you were when you opened it, and what device you were using”.  

Seems DuckDuckGo is offering email tracker removal.

My emails are setup with SSL and there has been some senders requesting receipt which I reject.

Can you give me a brief how this work and how can I prevent it?

Thank u

Thanx guys!

Dave,

as you said "My emails are setup with SSL and there has been some senders requesting receipt which I reject" my emails are also in that way.

So to close the question, the only way a senders knows I opened their emails is by "Request"?
