We’re
born private
Your email should be, too.
Your email is the key to your online identity: how you log into accounts, recover access, and communicate with loved ones. But most Big Tech inboxes are built to extract your data, track you — and your children — and train AI on your private messages.
Since Proton was founded in 2014, we've believed that privacy should be a right from the very beginning. For you and the next generation. And it starts with an inbox that protects you instead of profiting from you.
Most inboxes are built
to watch you
With Big Tech, your email is paid for with your personal data, transforming your inbox into a detailed map of your identity in ways you may not realize.
A better starting point: Proton Mail
End-to-end encryption + password protection so only you can read your email
An inbox that doesn’t monetize you — no ads, tracking pixels, or scanning
Protection from scams and unwanted messages via advanced filters
Private European email trusted by 100+ million people worldwide
Stronger legal privacy under Swiss data-protection laws
Born private means giving them a better start
Kids need email earlier than ever — for school apps, games, messaging platforms. Most first inboxes begin inside Big Tech ecosystems, like Gmail or Outlook, built for tracking. But there’s another, safer option.
Reserve your child’s first private email
Reserve an email address that stays locked and private until your child is ready — for up to 15 years.
A symbolic donation (starting at $1) helps prevent abuse and supports the Proton Foundation’s mission to protect digital identity globally.
