Welcome to our first quarterly PrivacyHarbor newsletter. 2009 was a very busy year for us. We launched a new website, an entirely new email platform and made a series of product enhancements. In mid-year, we drove a marketing campaign to spread the word about PrivacyHarbor.com and in just a few short months registered nearly 60,000 new members for our private email service. With hard work and ample support from the Internet community, our collective dream of providing a safe place where users can control and manage their online communications has become a reality.

2010 is getting off to a fast start. You will see many new enhancements, such as integrating our private email service with Outlook, then mobile devices, as well as many usability enhancements. I'll keep everyone updated as we get closer to each major release.

Throughout this past year, we received tremendous feedback from many of our loyal subscribers, through our survey, blog, Twitter, Facebook and even via the phone and in-person meetings. We thank everyone for the valuable input and passion you shared with us regarding protecting your privacy. We're building our platform based on customer feedback, and we look forward to continuing our conversations into this new year.

Sincerely,
Jim Adkisson
President / CEO, PrivacyHarbor, Inc.

Small Fish Big PondSmall Fish, Big Pond

Technology market research firm The Radicati Group reports that in 2009, approximately 247 billion emails were sent each day. The number of people using this medium to carry out communication is staggering - nearly 1.4 billion email users with that number forecasted to rise to 1.9 billion by 2013. With numbers this high, it's critical that users take appropriate action to protect themselves and their families against online fraud and invasive harvesting of information. As we've emphasized to our users during the past year, "common email" is anything but private.

As industry experts explain, nothing you post on the Internet is private. This is true of email messages as well. And unlike other methods of communication, there are very few laws in place to protect the 1.4 billion users sending and receiving email communications.

This is why PrivacyHarbor exists – the small fish in the big pond of email correspondence, navigating users through dangerous seas into a safe online harbor – one free of Internet fraud, privacy violations and the harvesting of personal, private information. PrivacyHarbor was founded on the belief that private and secure email communications should be a cornerstone of all online messaging and one available to all users.
