Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

TmpMail ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website tmpmail.pro (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service.

We are committed to protecting your privacy. Unlike most online services, we designed TmpMail from the ground up to minimize data collection. We believe privacy is a fundamental right, not a premium feature.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

TmpMail is built on a privacy-first architecture. We explicitly do not collect or store:

• Your real name, address, or phone number
• Your IP address (we do not log IP addresses)
• Your browsing history or behavior outside our site
• Your device fingerprint or unique identifiers
• Account credentials or passwords (we don't have accounts)
• Payment information (our service is free)

3. Information We Do Collect

We collect only the minimum information necessary to provide our Service:

3.1 Temporary Email Data

When you generate a temporary email address, we store:

• The temporary email address itself (e.g., abc123@tmpmail.pro)
• Emails received at that address (subject, sender, body, timestamp)
• Session identifier (a random string stored in your browser's session storage)

Important: All temporary email data is automatically and permanently deleted after 10 minutes of inactivity. We do not keep backups.

3.2 Cookies and Local Storage

We use minimal cookies and browser storage:

• Session cookie: Maintains your temporary email session while you use the site
• Cookie consent preference: Stores whether you've accepted or declined cookies (optional)
• Local storage: Stores your temporary email address so it persists if you refresh the page

3.3 Analytics Data

We use privacy-focused analytics that do not track individual users. This includes:

• Aggregated page view counts (no individual tracking)
• General geographic region (country-level only, not city or precise location)
• Browser type and device category (desktop/mobile) in aggregate

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the limited information we collect solely to:

• Provide the temporary email service (receive and display emails)
• Maintain your active session
• Improve site performance and reliability
• Detect and prevent abuse or spam
• Comply with legal obligations

5. Google AdSense and Advertising

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google may use cookies and web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

Google's advertising requirements can be summarized by Google's Advertising Principles:

• Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other sites
• You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings
• You can also opt out of third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting AboutAds.info

For more information about how Google uses data, please visit Google's Privacy & Terms.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

We have implemented automatic data deletion:

• Temporary emails and inbox contents: Deleted after 10 minutes of inactivity
• Session data: Deleted when you close your browser or after session timeout
• Analytics data: Aggregated and anonymized; individual records deleted after 30 days

We do not have the ability to recover deleted emails or data. Once expired, the information is permanently gone.

7. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data:

• HTTPS encryption for all data transmission
• Secure server infrastructure with regular security updates
• No storage of personal identifiers linked to temporary emails
• Regular security audits and penetration testing

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Google AdSense: For displaying advertisements (see Section 5)
• Cloudflare: For CDN, DDoS protection, and security (may see IP addresses for security purposes)
• Hosting Provider: For server infrastructure

These third parties have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under data protection laws including:

• Right to access: Since we don't collect personal data, there is nothing to access
• Right to deletion: Your data is automatically deleted after expiration
• Right to object: You can decline cookies and opt out of personalized ads
• Right to portability: Not applicable as we don't store personal data

To exercise any of these rights or ask questions, contact us at privacy@tmpmail.pro.

10. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

11. International Data Transfers

Our servers are located in multiple regions. By using our Service, you consent to the transfer of information to countries outside your country of residence, which may have different data protection rules.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
