Privacy Policy for Temp-Mail

Welcome to Temp-Mail. We are committed to protecting your privacy and providing a transparent service. This Privacy Policy explains our principles and practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you use our service.

1. Our Privacy-First Philosophy

Our core mission is to protect your privacy. We do not require you to register or provide any personal information to use our service. The temporary email addresses are generated anonymously and are not linked to your personal identity or IP address.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

To be crystal clear, we do not collect, log, or store any personally identifiable information (PII). This includes:

• Your real email address.
• Your name, phone number, or physical address.
• Your IP address or any location data.
• Information about your device or browser that could identify you.

3. How We Handle Email Data

Emails received at your temporary address are stored for a limited time (10 minutes) to allow you to read them. After this period, the email address and all associated messages are permanently and irretrievably deleted from our systems. We do not read, analyze, or share the content of your emails with any third parties.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

We use your browser's local storage for the sole purpose of maintaining your active session. This allows you to refresh the page without losing your current temporary email address. This data is stored only on your device and is not used for tracking or advertising. We do not use third-party tracking cookies.

5. Third-Party Services

Our service relies on a third-party API (mail.tm) to provide the core temporary email functionality. We have specifically chosen this provider for its strong focus on privacy and temporary data handling. According to their policies, they also follow a strict temporary data retention model. However, their handling of data is ultimately governed by their own privacy policies.

6. Security Measures

We take reasonable technical measures to protect our platform and your anonymity. All communication with our servers is encrypted using HTTPS. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We strive to protect your anonymity by design, but cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
