Your inbox has a carbon footprint 😱
Every email passes through data centres that consume large amounts of electricity.
With Runbox, every email you send and receive reduces your ecological footprint. We run on 100% Norwegian renewable energy.
Gmail is free. The surveillance is included.
When you use a free email service, the business model is you — your data, your habits, your inbox contents.
Runbox costs a few euros a month. No ads. No scanning. No profiling. No AI reading your messages to sell you things.
Some things are worth paying for.
We made a support assistant to help give quick answers to questions about Runbox, any time of day.
Meet Boxy. It is standalone, has no memory, no email access, no agenda - and also powers our DNS Compliance Checker.
We know AI raises questions. Here is how we approached it:

When your data touches a US-owned platform, it falls under US law — no matter where in Europe you are.
The CLOUD Act, surveillance capitalism, AI tools reading your emails… Europe's dependence on US tech has become a sovereignty crisis.
We've written about what's at stake and what Europe is doing about it.

👉 Did you know?
If your email provider uses U.S. servers, the CLOUD Act lets U.S. authorities access your data—even if you’re not in the U.S.
We are different. We’re a Norwegian company with our own servers in Norway. Your emails are protected by Norwegian law and GDPR.
Your data stays safe with Runbox. 🇳🇴
