How does a site get hacked?

I don't know exactly. There are a lot of reasons why a site can get hacked. Just know that it can happen to anyone. Even if you are careful, it can still happen. Companies don't always have the means to protect their online store. Sometimes they don't have the budget for it and sometimes they don't have the knowledge. As soon as a user submits their personal information, it can be stolen. This is why it is important to be careful with your personal information. Below are some tips to help you protect your personal information.

Use a privacy-focused email provider.

Protonmail or Tutanota are privacy-focused email providers. Gmail, Yahoo, and Outlook are not privacy-focused email providers. They scan your emails for advertising purposes. Instead, use a privacy-focused email provider like ProtonMail or Tutanota. These providers are free like Gmail, offer end-to-end encryption and do not scan your emails. They also do not require personal information to sign up. If you need more features, you can upgrade to a paid plan.
