What it is

Hushmail provides encrypted email, secure web forms, and electronic signatures for individuals and businesses. It runs on Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and the web, supports custom domains, and works with IMAP and SMTP. Hushmail says it combines OpenPGP with SSL/TLS, with messages between Hushmail customers remaining OpenPGP-encrypted on its servers. Secure-message recipients use an inbox link and may sign in with Google, Outlook, or Apple. Healthcare forms support encrypted responses, signatures, and templates for intake, assessments, file transfer, and appointment requests. Every healthcare plan includes a signed Business Associate Agreement, and the company says its healthcare service supports HIPAA compliance. Personal Use starts with 15 GB and unlimited aliases but is not intended for healthcare professionals and lacks an archive, BAA, and IMA. Personal Basic costs $59.99 a year; healthcare plans start at $14.99 a month.
