Who owns this Proton Mail address?
Proton Mail is built so that even Proton does not read a mailbox, so a proton.me, protonmail.com or pm.me address tells you little about its owner. Check what the address is tied to.
- Free first check
- proton.me, pm.me and protonmail
- The owner is never notified

Proton Mail address questions
Can I find out who owns a Proton Mail address?
Not from Proton. It does not publish owner details and does not read mailboxes. A full report shows the accounts, names and photos other services tie to the address, when they exist.
Is a Proton Mail address a sign of a scammer?
No. Millions of ordinary people use it for privacy. It is a reason to rely on other checks rather than a warning in itself.
Can a company use a Proton address with its own domain?
Yes. Proton hosts mail for custom domains, so a name@company.com address can run on Proton. The free check shows the provider.
What are pm.me and protonmail.ch?
Short and alternate Proton domains. They are run by Proton and work like proton.me.
Does the person know I checked?
No. We never email the address or notify its owner, and nothing appears on the platform or with the provider.
Is this a background check?
No. We are not a consumer reporting agency, and reports must not be used for decisions about employment, credit, housing, tenancy, or insurance.
