Proton

Proton is built on a simple belief: privacy is a fundamental human right and essential to a free, open internet. In an era where personal data is constantly tracked and monetised, Proton provides secure digital services designed to give individuals and businesses full control over their information. Founded by scientists from CERN and MIT, Proton combines advanced encryption with user-focused design to deliver powerful, privacy-first tools. Its growing ecosystem includes secure email, cloud storage, calendar, and VPN services, all developed with transparency and security at their core. By prioritising open-source development, Proton allows its technology to be independently verified and trusted worldwide. Operating under the Proton Foundation, a Swiss non-profit organisation, Proton is governed with a long-term commitment to privacy rather than short-term commercial gain. Switzerland’s strong privacy laws further reinforce its position as a trusted provider of secure communication and data protection solutions. Unlike many tech companies, Proton is funded entirely by its community through subscriptions. It does not rely on advertising or data mining, ensuring that user privacy always comes first. Today, Proton supports millions of users globally, empowering them with secure, reliable tools to protect their digital lives.
