Tuta is a German E2E-encrypted email service that genuinely can't read your emails, stores all data in ISO 27001-certified German data centres, uses no cookies and no third-party analytics, and has a policy short enough to actually read — the main caveats are that some metadata (sender/recipient addresses, timestamps) is stored unencrypted, and campaign tracking via hashed connection data is present.
