Is correspondence still private in the digital mail age?

You are bound to have heard of them before, but what exactly are mail privacy regulations? And is it relevant for you?

A brief summary: mail privacy is your right to the content of your correspondence remaining confidential, and not being viewed by or passed on to third parties. Even in the Roman Empire there was a form of mail privacy. Later, it gradually found its way into European constitutions. It thus developed into a fundamental and human right that protects the confidentiality of written communications in the form of letters. It remains in place to this day.

But does this also apply to digital communication? And in this context: can ePost guarantee the confidentiality of correspondence? The short answer is: yes. ePost treats your privacy as a top priority and thus ensures the proven principle of postal privacy in the digital world as well. Swiss Post is committed to the trustworthy transmission of sensitive information, regardless of the communication channel.
