ProtonMail is one of the best known, perhaps THE best known, provider of encrypted (private) email messages. ProtonMail is based in Switzerland where not only can the company offer encrypted services, but local laws prohibit the release of personal information or the contents of email messages sent or received by any person or corporation.
