Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is a private email account?
Ownership - A secure email service, or private email account, is one that you own and you control.
Unlisted for further privacy
Those who remember the Yellow Pages will remember what it meant to remain “unlisted” back when everyone’s telephone number was published in a huge paper telephone book. People who didn’t want their phone number made public would pay to have it removed, or “unlisted.” With our private email service, we add a privacy wrapper to the email so that it’s automatically “unlisted” and unavailable to advertisers or anyone else for that matter.
There’s no scanning and reselling of your email information to large retailers, advertising groups, or data brokers. All of your email communications and files are private and secure. Our secure email service empowers you with the ability to send email messages, personally or professionally, in a private, secure, and safe manner, regardless of time and place.
Did you know that those “free” email services own your information?
They do, and the problem is, they own exactly the kind of information cybercriminals are looking for as well. They have every entry in your Gmail Contacts - Google has clear documentation of what kind of computer you use, what software you’re using, and what updates you do or don’t have,
Although many have become aware of the risks of free email, many are unsure of exactly how to create a private email account. This is where we come in.
Beware of these types of scams:
- Baiting: Baiting is one of the oldest forms of malicious email programs. It offers a topic the user would naturally be interested in as a way to disguise a potentially malicious program. A comprehensive email security system is the only way to eliminate this type of threat.
- Pretexting: Pretexting is a tactic that's used in order to get privileged information such as login and authentication data. The message is actually a pretext -- offering an alleged reason the specific information is needed to complete a task, such as the information necessary to troubleshoot problems with their account. These can be incredibly dangerous.

Why do I need a private email account?
Primarily, because it’s secure. Research shows that nine out of every ten viruses that infect a computer reach it through an email attachment. Free email is the number one vector for cybercrimes, and sophisticated email scams can be deceptively convincing.
Email security is a necessary protection against the growing threat of hackers, viruses, spam, phishing, and identity theft, as well as fundamental to securing business and private communications.

What makes it so secure?
We use an enterprise-grade system that includes the strongest threat detection structure in the industry. Before an email message enters your mailbox, it undergoes a series of multi-level tests before entering your private system.
- Off the Grid - Away from the "honeypots" cyber criminals use to steal information, and off the insecure grid of "free" services.
- Private Infrastructure - Located in a protected facility built for email and focused on privacy - not information mining.
Before an incoming email enters your system it is screened four times:
