Transparency alternatives to StartMail
Other Email hosting vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at StartMail. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 38 that differ from StartMail on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
StartMail has 7 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, No third-party tracking before consent, Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “Found there, not found at StartMail” is the one that closes them.
