Encryption is when you change data with a special encoding process so that the data becomes unrecognizable (it's encrypted). You can then apply a special decoding process and you will get the original data back. By keeping the decoding process a secret, nobody else can recover the original data from the encrypted data.

## E-mail
**Disroot** provides secure email accounts for your desktop client or via a web interface. The communication between you and the mail server is encrypted with SSL, providing as much privacy as possible. Furthermore, all the emails being sent out from our server are encrypted as well (TLS) if the recipients email server supports it. This means that emails are no longer sent as traditional "postcard", but are actually put in an "envelope".
