You’re concerned about privacy and data monitoring in your new workplace. The situation involves surveillance through email and internet traffic, which raises legal and ethical questions. Laws vary by country, but generally, employers must balance business needs with employee rights to privacy. It’s important to review your employment contract and local regulations to understand your protections. If you feel uncomfortable, consider discussing these concerns with a legal professional or HR representative.

Yes, you can turn off the VPN when you're not in use.

Through the carrier, all the information passes via their servers. If my understanding is correct, it means I'm not expressing that idea.

Here’s a revised version of your text:

So here’s the situation. A VPN essentially creates a safe passage through the internet between two locations. Your device establishes a protected link with a company’s network, allowing you to access its resources securely. When using company systems, organizations can legally oversee certain activities. For instance, if it’s an official email account, they have full authority to monitor it. However, unless you’re using a device provided by the company, they might not be able to track everything. In my opinion, it’s smarter to use two devices. That way, your data stays protected as long as the VPN is active. You can easily turn the VPN on or off depending on your needs. This approach works best if you prefer using just one device. I recommend researching local labor laws to understand what a company can legally do. Most likely, no.

Is this your personal phone or a company phone? If it's a company paid for phone then there is jack all you can do. They also have their own private APN so all traffic goes through their network and leaves from a main office or aggregation point to the internet as needed. Since it's through the carrier then it's not a VPN but almost certainly a private APN network. I suspect this is a company phone in which case OP is SOL.

They might simply employ their own VPN, ensuring all data over the corporate network remains secure and unmonitored. This approach would depend on compliance with company policies, which could prohibit such actions.
