Interview with Startpage CEO Robert E.G. Beens
Email plays a big part in communication during this digital age, but did you know that many of the free email services are scraping your emails to collect information?
That’s right.
Many of them offer the free email service so they can learn who you communicate with, what you like (based on the content of your email, and more. This information is then used or sold for marketing or other purposes.
If you value your privacy and would prefer to use an email provider that values your privacy, consider StartMail. StartMail offers encrypted email service and, they do not scan your emails. Your email communication is your private communication.
In this episode of Privacy Mentor, I sit down with Robert E.G. Beens, the Co-Founder and CEO of Startpage and StartMail, and a recognized privacy expert and advocate. At Startpage, he oversees operations, product development, technology, and finance.
