“In the coming months, we will better integrate SimpleLogin functionality into ProtonMail, meaning the Proton community will be able to hide their email addresses using SimpleLogin,” Yen said in a statement on Friday.Īpple first introduced the Hide My Email feature with iOS 15. SimpleLogin has more than 1,00,000 users who have created more than 2 million email aliases.

If a service you sign up for gets hacked, sends you spam, or sells your email to advertisers, you can disable that email alias to safeguard your inbox.Īccording to Andy Yen, Founder and CEO of Proton, this makes SimpleLogin a complementary service to ProtonMail, “with ProtonMail protecting your data privacy with encryption while SimpleLogin prevents malicious actors from exploiting your real email address”. SimpleLogin is a browser extension, web app and mobile app that provides people with anonymous email addresses whenever they sign up for a new online service.

New Delhi : Encrypted email service ProtonMail has acquired Paris-based startup SimpleLogin, that allows users to create an email alias, for an undisclosed sum.
