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.
yeah but we think it’s nice to send the updates to family from her email, not from ours.
is it legal at all to have an email address at that age?
The baby didn’t create the account?
you are totally right, it was created for the baby, in the name of her
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.
Obviously I didn’t talk about the wife’s age, but of the newborn for whom the wife has made a google account
