BREAK FREE from Big Tech!
You should be able to choose what happens to your data. With Proton, only you can read your emails.
What is private email exactly?
Private email services, like Proton Mail, use end-to-end encryption and other advanced security measures to ensure that only you and your recipients can see your messages. Send a secure email to a friend, and no one but you and them can read it.
A privacy-focused email service is essential for 3 reasons.
- It makes sure you control your personal data
- It protects you against data breaches, phishing attacks and spoofing
- It enables you to be what you want and say what you want online.

Is privacy really that important?
Many think their emails aren't important enough to be targeted. But events like the 2016 Yahoo breach, which affected 3 billion accounts, show the risks. With years passing before the breach was even detected, hackers had plenty of time to sift through emails, possibly uncovering medical details, passport information, travel records, and purchase histories, leading to identity theft and fraud cases. You don't need to be doing something wrong to protect what is YOURS.

I'm a big fan of @ProtonMail! They kept the light on for small tech, independent mail service providers while nobody else seemed to give a damn.
I moved to @ProtonMail 2 years ago and never looked back. The feeling of freedom you get when you know you are not being tracked is uplifting.
You get what you pay for. In the case of big tech, if you pay nothing, you get used. I quit using Gmail and switched to @ProtonMail
My Choice for a Gmail alternative? @ProtonMail - Been using a paid account for over 2 years and it's great. Good customer service also!
I love my ProtonMail
