FreeMalta / Partner brief
Proton
Email, VPN and storage built by the people who built CERN security.
A starting point for your decision. Check the current offer, plan and terms with the provider. FreeMalta may earn a commission from eligible referrals.
01 / The brief
Where does it fit?
Swiss-based, end-to-end encrypted email, VPN, calendar and drive — built by ex-CERN scientists with privacy as the entire product, not a feature. For Malta companies and individuals who want their communications genuinely private, not just password-protected.
Start with your workflow. Identify the job you need to do, compare the relevant plan and test it against real work. The right name on the button is only the beginning.
02 / Before you choose
Four questions worth asking.
The fit
Can you use the service?
Check eligibility, regional availability and the features your particular plan includes. A global brand does not mean identical terms everywhere.
The bill
What is the complete cost?
Include usage, seats, optional services and any relevant transaction charges. Compare the current terms rather than assuming an offer applies automatically.
The handoff
How will it join the work?
Confirm supported connections and permissions. Understand what data moves, who can access it and what happens if the process fails.
03 / The surrounding workflow
