If you’re working on stepping up your online security, there may be some browsing habits you’re overlooking, and one of the best places to start is with email. Despite its ubiquity, email has longstanding privacy and security issues; that’s doubly true in the age of AI, as companies’ chatbots can scrape your emails.
There are more privacy-focused options on the market, including Proton, which offers a private and secure email service. Right now, Proton is offering its Mail service for 60% off for a year as part of an early Black Friday promo.
$1.99/mo $4.99/mo 60% off
Proton offers several plans, which are all 60% off right now. The Mail Plus plan includes Proton Mail and Calendar for $1.99/mo. for a year. If you’re looking for secure tools for working, Proton also features the Drive Plus plan for the same price, which includes cloud storage on Drive, plus the collaborative tools Docs and Sheets.
For access to all of Proton’s tools, including its VPN and password manager, you can get the Unlimited plan for $6.49/mo. for one year, which is 50% off the regular price. Each of Proton’s plans offer a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Proton Mail Features
Proton Mail includes end-to-end encryption, whether or not your recipient uses Proton Mail, so you can send emails that are more private and secure. Proton Mail also doesn’t have tracking or advertising, which means you won’t have retailers following you to your inbox just because you visited their site. The inbox can also be easily imported or synced from other services.
In addition to a private inbox, a Proton Mail subscription also comes with access to Proton Calendar to keep track of your schedule. As for the Proton Unlimited tier, it includes 500 GB of cloud storage, Proton Mail and Drive, plus access to a VPN and password manager. The Unlimited plan starts at $6.49/mo during the Black Friday deal.
