1. Introduction
Welcome to tempmail.world. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, share, and protect your personal information when you visit or use our website and services. By accessing or using tempmail.world, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
2. Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to all users of tempmail.world and covers all aspects of data handling related to the temporary email addresses, associated messages, and usage data. It does not apply to third-party websites or services that may be linked on our site, for which we are not responsible.
3. Information We Collect
3.1 Temporary Email Data: We provide randomly generated, short-lived email addresses to facilitate email reception without requiring personal account registration. All messages received by these addresses are automatically deleted after a set expiry period.
3.2 Usage Data: We may collect non-personal information such as IP addresses, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and general geographic location. This information helps us understand how our service is used, improve performance, and troubleshoot issues.
3.3 Device Information: We may collect details about the device and browser you use to access our service, including hardware model, unique device identifiers, and browser type or language.
4. How We Use Your Information
4.1 Providing the Service: We use temporary email data solely to deliver incoming messages to the temporary email addresses you generate, then delete them after the configured retention period.
4.2 Improving Our Website: Usage data helps us monitor trends, analyze how users interact with the service, and improve user experience, stability, and security.
4.3 Security & Fraud Prevention: We may use IP addresses and other technical data to detect and prevent fraudulent activities, abusive behavior, or violations of our terms.
5. Data Retention
5.1 Temporary Emails & Messages: All emails received at the temporary addresses are stored for a limited timeframe (e.g., 1 hour) before being permanently deleted. We do not back up or archive these emails.
5.2 Usage Data: Aggregated usage data may be retained indefinitely for statistical analysis and performance monitoring. IP addresses and other technical identifiers may be stored temporarily to ensure security and prevent abuse.
6. Data Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties.
We may share usage data with third-party analytics or service providers who assist us in improving our website. Such third parties are required to keep the information confidential and must not use it for any other purpose.
We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government request, or if we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or violations of our terms.
7. International Data Transfers
tempmail.world may operate servers in various countries. If you access our service from outside these locations, your information may be transferred across international borders. By using our service, you consent to the transfer, storage, and processing of your information in jurisdictions that may have different privacy and data protection laws than your home country.
8. Your Rights & Choices
8.1 Access & Deletion: Because our service is anonymous and does not store personally identifiable information, we generally cannot provide or delete any personal data. Emails are automatically deleted after their expiration period.
8.2 Opt-Out: You may stop using our services at any time. Since we do not track personal identity, ceasing to use the service effectively ends any data collection.
8.3 Do Not Track: We do not currently respond to browser 'Do Not Track' signals, as no personal tracking is performed.
9. Security Measures
We take commercially reasonable measures to secure our servers and protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of the data we collect. However, no security measures are foolproof, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Regulatory Compliance
Although we do not typically process personally identifiable information, we aim to comply with applicable data protection regulations such as the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) to the extent relevant.
For GDPR and CCPA requests, please note that due to the ephemeral nature of our data, we may not be able to identify or retrieve any personally related information.
11. Third-Party Links & Services
Our website may contain links to external sites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies and terms of service before engaging with them.
12. Children’s Privacy
tempmail.world is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can promptly delete it.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, along with the updated 'Last updated' date. Your continued use of our service after such changes will constitute your acknowledgment and acceptance of the modified policy.
