A2X uses Google for account login and security. A Google login like a FaceBook or Yahoo, is a way for a trusted 3rd party service to provide account logins for A2X. You can sign up for a free Google login using any email address you like, or if you wish you can sign up for a Google account and get a free gmail address at the same time. In this article we will show you how to create a Google account using your own email address.

Data protection - Your data and privacy are important.  All A2X data is secured and encrypted.  A2X stores your data within Google Cloud, taking advantage of its world-leading security technology, which meets rigorous security and privacy standards.

If you already use Google to host your email service for your business or company (Using Google Apps or G Suite) then your email account is already a Google Account and you can use it to log in directly to A2X - you do not need to create a new Google login.
