Include secretly, as on an email

Answer:

BCC

Hint:

Think of the email field that lets you add recipients without others seeing—it’s the quiet way to copy someone in.

Explanation:

The clue refers to adding someone to an email without others seeing it. "BCC" stands for "blind carbon copy," which lets you include recipients secretly. The word "include" hints at adding someone, while "secretly" points to the "blind" part of BCC. It’s a straightforward definition with no wordplay—just a common email term.
