About ProtonMail

ProtonMail is a secure email service that prioritises user privacy and data protection. Founded in 2013 by scientists and engineers from CERN and MIT, it has grown to become one of the leading providers of encrypted email services worldwide.

With its headquarters located in Switzerland, ProtonMail benefits from the country’s strong privacy laws, ensuring that user data remains protected from government surveillance and third-party access.

The platform employs end-to-end encryption, meaning that only the sender and recipient can read the contents of an email, making it an ideal choice for individuals and organisations concerned about confidentiality.

ProtonMail is designed with user-friendliness in mind, offering a clean and intuitive interface that allows users to easily navigate their inboxes and manage their communications.

In addition to email services, ProtonMail also offers features such as self-destructing messages, which automatically delete after a specified time, and the ability to send encrypted messages to non-ProtonMail users.

ProtonMail is committed to transparency and open-source principles, allowing users to verify the security of the platform through publicly available code.

The company operates on a freemium model, providing basic services for free while offering premium features for a subscription fee, thus ensuring accessibility for all users.

ProtonMail’s vision is to create a more secure and private internet, empowering users to take control of their personal information and communicate freely without fear of surveillance.

As part of the Proton ecosystem, which includes Proton VPN and Proton Drive, ProtonMail aims to provide a comprehensive suite of privacy-focused tools for users around the globe.

With millions of users worldwide, ProtonMail continues to innovate and expand its services, striving to maintain the highest standards of security and privacy in the digital age.
