Privacy Policy

Addresses expire, and data should have clear limits too. Here’s what we process to provide inbox and forwarding services, how long we keep it, and how you can manage it.

Information we process

When you use a temporary inbox, we generate a temporary address and access credentials, and process email data sent to that address, including the sender, subject, message, attachments and receipt time. This information lets us show emails to whoever has the inbox credentials; it is not used to build a profile of your identity.

When you use email forwarding, we process your login email, verification records, alias settings and delivery status. If you enable two-step verification, we also store the key material needed for verification. We will never ask you to send us a one-time code from your authenticator app.

How we use information

We use this information to create addresses, display incoming messages, forward emails you choose, complete sign-ins and prevent abuse. Essential request logs may include timestamps, network addresses and technical error details to help keep the service secure, troubleshoot issues and prevent automated abuse.

We do not sell email contents or send your login details to a service just because you mention it in an email. Emails may contain tracking images or links from third parties. Check the source before opening untrusted messages or links to external sites.

Retention and deletion

Temporary email addresses remain valid for the period shown on the page. Extending an address updates its expiry time. After an address expires, is changed or is deleted, the old address and its emails may not be recoverable. Don’t use a temporary address for accounts you may need to recover later.

Email forwarding records let you review where emails were delivered over the past 30 days. Essential anti-abuse and service logs may be kept separately for a short time when needed for security and operations; they are not email backups.

Transmission, sharing and security

Emails are transmitted over the internet and through the servers of relevant email providers. We cannot guarantee that third-party delivery routes are completely confidential. We use access controls for account features and limit internal access where practical, but no online service can be entirely risk-free.

To forward your emails, we must pass them to the receiving email provider. We may also disclose necessary information where required by law, to protect service security or to address abuse. We do not otherwise share inbox contents with advertising partners.

Your choices and rights

You can stop using a temporary address, delete emails, manage aliases and choose not to enable two-step verification. Closing your browser or logging out does not, by itself, delete data from our servers. To access, correct or delete information linked to your login email, contact support from that email so we can verify your request.

Privacy rights vary by region, and we handle requests in accordance with applicable law. If an email contains someone else’s personal information, do not treat a temporary inbox as a public sharing space.

Policy updates and contact

We may update this policy as our services or legal requirements change, and will show the update date on this page. We’ll highlight significant changes where appropriate; please review the latest version before continuing to use the service.
