If you're concerned about online privacy as far as your email goes, if you're worried about things like tracking and having your data mined by Big Tech, if you're maybe looking to move away from Gmail, then the good news is, there are quite a few private, secure email services available. One very reputable alternative is ProtonMail. In fact, Proton's my top choice for secure, encrypted business email -- it's what I'm using myself these days for my online business email. That said, if you're like most Gmail users, the thought of untangling yourself from Google and Gmail might sound very complex and difficult...either for your personal email or for your business. Yet at the same time, issues like privacy, security, and wanting to move away from Big Tech could have you feeling like you're between a rock and a hard place.

Well I'm happy to tell you that ProtonMail in fact makes it very easy and straightforward to de-Google yourself...and it won't take a whole lot of effort either.

But'cha know what? I'm totally getting ahead of myself here. We'll talk a little bit more about migrating to ProtonMail in just a bit. First up, what is ProtonMail and what makes them such a great choice for secure, encrypted email?

Well, ProtonMail is based in Switzerland, who has some of the strictest privacy laws in the world. Further, as the world's largest secure email provider (with over one million users), Proton's mission is all about privacy and security online.

From a practical, day-to-day standpoint, ProtonMail is fast, secure, intuitive, and easy to use. Your Proton account is accessible via a web client, you can integrate it into your desktop client (like Thunderbird or Outlook, etc) if you like, and you can also use Proton on your mobile device.

Signing up for a ProtonMail account can be done completely anonymously too. This means that no personal information is needed, like your name, address, or phone number.

So here's the plan: What we'll do here is first is, we'll take a look at ProtonMail's core function -- secure, private email. Then we'll take a quick look at their included contacts manager and encrypted calendar.

And then finally towards the end we'll go over Proton's pricing options...where I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Okay, let's start with their core service, email!

Of course the core of ProtonMail's service is encrypted email. But let's be clear about what this means, exactly.

First, all your email that's stored with ProtonMail will be totally secure. Not even the ProtonMail service itself can access your emails.

Second, emails sent between ProtonMail users or recipients who use other encrypted email services like Tutanota or MailFence will be totally secure and encrypted as well.

This means that no one other than the sender and receiver can read the contents -- third party apps, the ProtonMail service itself, and really anyone else cannot gain access to the contents of your emails.

However, if you were to send a regular email to a non-ProtonMail user, of course your message won't be secure...meaning that the receiver's email service, third party apps, and others can read the contents of your email.

However, you can optionally password-protect the emails that you send. When you send a password-protected email to a non-ProtonMail user, they...
