Hi, my wife decided to create a new email for our newborn daughter which my wife would use to send updates to our relatives about what is going on in our daughter life. My wife is using gmail, I do use proton. She has created a new gmail account but I have asked her to reconsider and to create a new account on proton privacy wise. What arguments would you use for my case? Thanks.
is it legal at all to have an email address at that age?
fortunately we dont live in the usa
does the USA have such a law? Honestly I would be surprised.
I’m talking with the EU in mind. Probably GDPR, but there may be other laws affecting it
OP didn’t state their wife’s age but it is a safe assumption they are old enough to sign up for an email address.
This is no different to me having a email dedicated to searching for a house to give to real estate agents and someone saying “I don’t think it’s legal that a house has an email”. It was frustrating reading up until your comment that people just didn’t get it.
The baby didn’t create the account?
