Hi,

> When do you use it? On what websites?

It is useful for end-to-end encryption for instance using with Gmail.
Tor does not provide you end-to-end encryption, your traffic is
encrypted only through exit node.

If you are using SSL website, your traffic is accessible to website,
because website has SSL keys. With GPG your traffic is
encrypted/decrypted on your own machine.

P. S. this could also be useful information -
