Questions et réponses

6 questions

Where is Proton headquartered and where is data stored?

Proton AG is headquartered in Plan-les-Ouates, Geneva, Switzerland. All user data is stored in Swiss data centres operated by Proton, including the company-owned hardware in Lausanne and Plan-les-Ouates. Switzerland is outside the European Union but offers stronger privacy protections than EU/EEA jurisdictions in many areas.

Is Proton subject to the US CLOUD Act?

No. Proton AG is a Swiss-domiciled legal entity with no US subsidiary or US-headquartered parent. Proton is owned by the Proton Foundation, a Swiss non-profit. The CLOUD Act applies to US-headquartered providers and their foreign subsidiaries, neither of which describe Proton.

Can I use Proton with my own custom domain?

Yes. Mail Plus supports one custom domain and Proton Unlimited supports up to three. Business plans support unlimited domains. Setup is via DNS records (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and is documented in the admin panel.

Does Proton offer a Data Processing Agreement?

Yes. Proton offers a GDPR-compliant Data Processing Agreement and Standard Contractual Clauses for business customers. Documents are available on request from [email protected] or directly through the Business admin panel.

Are Proton apps open source?

Yes. All Proton client applications (Mail, VPN, Drive, Calendar, Pass) are open source under permissive licences and the source code is published on GitHub. The cryptographic libraries have been independently audited by Cure53, Securitum and other reviewers, and the audit reports are publicly available.

What happens if Proton receives a Swiss subpoena?

Proton can only provide data it actually has, and because of zero-access encryption that is limited to subscriber metadata such as IP at registration (if not paid in cash). Proton publishes a transparency report twice a year documenting the orders received and how they were handled.
