E-mail privacy

Okay, kiddo, so imagine you have a secret message that you want to send to your friend. But instead of passing it to them in person, you send it through email. Email is like a digital mailbox where you can send and receive messages online.

Now, email privacy means keeping this secret message between you and your friend only. It's like having a secret club where only you and your friends know what you're talking about. When you send an email, you want to make sure that nobody else can read it, except for the person you want to receive it.

To make sure your email stays private, you need to use something called encryption. Encryption is like putting your secret message in a locked box, and only the person you trust with the key can open it. The encryption process scrambles your message so that nobody else can read it, even if they manage to intercept it.

So, when you're sending an email, you want to make sure that you're using a secure email service that has encryption. If you're using a public Wi-Fi network, like in a coffee shop or library, you might also want to use a virtual private network (VPN), which is like a secret tunnel that keeps your web browsing secure and private.

Just remember, kiddo, email privacy is important because you want to keep your messages for the people you trust. So keep your emails safe and secure!
