Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 30, 2026

Introduction

Welcome to Temp Mail Free.

TempMailFree provides a free temporary email service that allows users to create disposable email addresses and receive emails without registering for an account or providing a personal email address.

We respect your privacy and aim to collect only the information reasonably necessary to operate, protect, and improve the service.

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed when you use TempMailFree, how that information may be used, how long it may be retained, and the choices available to you.

By using TempMailFree, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Process

You can use the core TempMailFree service without creating an account.

We do not require you to provide your name, personal email address, phone number, password, or other registration information simply to generate and use a temporary email address.

However, certain information may be processed automatically when you use the Website.

1.1 Temporary Email Addresses

When you use TempMailFree, the service may generate a random temporary email address or allow you to customize an available email address.

The temporary email address is processed for the purpose of providing the service.

1.2 Emails Received by Temporary Mailboxes

To provide temporary email functionality, our systems must process messages sent to temporary email addresses created through the service.

These messages may include:

• Sender email address
• Sender name
• Subject line
• Message content
• Email headers
• Attachments, where supported
• Date and time of delivery
• Other technical information associated with the message

Temporary email messages are intended for short-term use and may be automatically deleted when the temporary mailbox expires or in accordance with our operational retention rules.

You should not use TempMailFree to receive sensitive, confidential, financial, medical, legal, or other important information.

1.3 Technical Information

When you access the Website, our servers or infrastructure providers may automatically process technical information such as:

• IP address
• Browser type
• Device type
• Operating system
• Language settings
• Referring page
• Requested pages
• Date and time of requests
• Diagnostic and security information

This information may be used for security, abuse prevention, troubleshooting, system administration, performance monitoring, and service improvement.

1.4 Cookies and Similar Technologies

TempMailFree may use cookies, browser storage, local storage, or similar technologies to:

• Maintain essential Website functionality
• Remember temporary settings
• Preserve certain browser-side preferences
• Improve usability
• Measure Website performance
• Detect abuse or unusual activity

Additional information is available in our Cookie Policy.

2. How We Use Information

Information processed through TempMailFree may be used to:

• Generate and operate temporary email addresses
• Receive and display incoming emails
• Maintain Website functionality
• Detect spam, automated abuse, fraud, and malicious activity
• Protect our servers and infrastructure
• Diagnose technical problems
• Improve Website performance and reliability
• Understand general usage patterns
• Comply with legal obligations
• Respond to lawful requests from competent authorities
• Enforce our Terms of Service

We do not require the contents of your permanent personal email account to provide the temporary email service.

3. Temporary Mailboxes Are Not Private Storage

Temporary email addresses are designed for short-term convenience and privacy protection when interacting with third-party websites.

They are not intended to function as secure or permanent email accounts.

Depending on how a temporary address is generated and accessed, another person who knows or discovers the temporary email address may potentially be able to access messages delivered to that mailbox.

You should therefore never use a TempMailFree address for:

• Banking or financial accounts
• Cryptocurrency accounts
• Government services
• Medical information
• Legal documents
• Password recovery for important accounts
• Confidential business communications
• Sensitive personal information
• Long-term account ownership

You are responsible for determining whether a temporary email address is appropriate for a particular use.

4. Data Retention

TempMailFree is designed around temporary email functionality.

Temporary addresses and their associated messages may expire automatically after the applicable mailbox period, including temporary mailboxes designed for approximately 10 minutes of use.

Messages may be deleted automatically and may not be recoverable once deleted or expired.

Certain limited technical, security, anti-abuse, or server log information may be retained for longer periods when reasonably necessary to:

• Protect the service
• Investigate abuse
• Prevent attacks
• Maintain system reliability
• Meet legal obligations

We aim to retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it is processed.

5. Sharing of Information

We may share limited information with third parties only when reasonably necessary for operating or protecting TempMailFree.

These parties may include:

Service Providers

Infrastructure, hosting, security, content-delivery, monitoring, analytics, or other technical service providers that assist us in operating the Website.

Legal and Safety Requirements

Information may be disclosed where we reasonably believe disclosure is required to:

• Comply with applicable law
• Respond to a valid legal process
• Protect the rights or safety of TempMailFree, our users, or others
• Investigate fraud, abuse, attacks, or illegal activity

Business Changes

If TempMailFree is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, or transfer of assets, relevant information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

6. Third-Party Websites

TempMailFree is commonly used to receive emails generated by third-party websites and online services.

We do not control those third parties.

Their collection and use of your information are governed by their own privacy policies and terms.

The inclusion of links or interaction with third-party services does not mean TempMailFree endorses or controls those services.

7. Analytics and Advertising

TempMailFree may use privacy-conscious analytics or third-party analytics technologies to understand general Website usage and improve performance.

The Website may also display advertising or use third-party advertising services where applicable.

These providers may use cookies or similar technologies according to their own privacy policies and applicable consent requirements.

Where required by law, non-essential cookies or similar technologies will be subject to user consent or other legally available choices.

Please review our Cookie Policy for additional information.

8. Legal Bases for Processing

Where laws such as the GDPR or similar privacy regulations apply, our legal bases for processing information may include:

• Providing the service requested by you
• Our legitimate interests in maintaining and securing the service
• Preventing fraud and abuse
• Improving Website reliability and performance
• Compliance with legal obligations
• Your consent, where consent is required

9. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, applicable privacy laws may provide rights concerning your personal information, including the right to:

• Request access to personal information
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion
• Object to certain processing
• Request restriction of processing
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Request data portability where applicable
• Lodge a complaint with a competent data protection authority

Because TempMailFree does not require user accounts and temporary information may be automatically deleted, we may not always be able to identify or retrieve information associated with a particular individual.

We may request sufficient information to verify a privacy request where required by law.

10. International Processing

TempMailFree may rely on servers, infrastructure providers, or service providers located in different countries.

As a result, information may be processed outside the country in which you are located.

Where required by applicable law, appropriate safeguards will be used for international transfers of personal information.

11. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect our Website and systems against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, disruption, or destruction.

However, no Internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

Temporary email is specifically designed for disposable and short-term communication. It should not be treated as a secure replacement for a private, permanent email account.

12. Children's Privacy

TempMailFree is not specifically designed for children.

Users who are not legally able to agree to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service should use the service only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian where required by applicable law.

We do not knowingly request children to provide personal registration information in order to use the core temporary email service.

13. Do Not Send Sensitive Information

Please do not intentionally send or receive highly sensitive personal information through TempMailFree.

This includes information such as:

• Government identification numbers
• Banking credentials
• Credit or debit card information
• Cryptocurrency private keys or recovery phrases
• Medical records
• Authentication secrets
• Permanent account recovery information
• Confidential business documents

TempMailFree is intended for temporary email use, not secure document storage.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect:

• Changes to the service
• New Website functionality
• Security improvements
• Changes in legal requirements
• Changes to third-party services we use

When changes are made, the updated version will be published on this page and the Last Updated date may be revised.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.

15. Chrome Extension and Limited Use

The Temp Mail Free Chrome extension processes a randomly generated temporary email address, a short-lived mailbox access token, mailbox expiration information, and incoming message summaries solely to provide disposable email and inbox functionality.

This information may be stored locally in Chrome extension storage and transmitted securely to TempMailFree.org over HTTPS. The extension does not read browsing history, inspect unrelated websites, collect form data, track user activity, or access a user's permanent email account.

Data obtained through Chrome APIs is used and transferred only as necessary to provide the extension's single user-facing purpose.

The use of information received from Chrome APIs complies with the Chrome Web Store User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

We do not sell extension user data, use it for personalized advertising, or transfer it for creditworthiness, lending, or purposes unrelated to the extension's core functionality.

16. Firefox Extension and Data Transmission

The Temp Mail Free Firefox extension transmits a randomly generated temporary email address, a short-lived mailbox access token, mailbox expiration information, and incoming message summaries to TempMailFree.org over HTTPS solely to provide disposable email and inbox functionality.

Firefox classifies these required data types as authentication information, personally identifying information, and personal communications. Firefox displays the required data-transmission disclosure during installation. The extension cannot provide its core temporary-mail service without this transmission.

The Firefox extension does not read browsing history, inspect unrelated websites, collect form data, track user activity, access a user's permanent email account, or use data for advertising.

We do not sell extension user data or transfer it for purposes unrelated to the extension's core functionality.

18. Android App Data Handling

The Temp Mail Free Android app creates and accesses disposable mailboxes through TempMailFree.org over HTTPS. To provide the app's core functionality, the service processes a randomly generated or user-selected temporary email address, a short-lived mailbox access token, mailbox expiration information, incoming email metadata and content, and attachments when the user chooses to download them.

The active mailbox token is stored on the device using Android encrypted storage. Tokens associated with locally saved mailbox history are encrypted with a key held by the Android Keystore. Message summaries and opened message content may be cached in the app's private local database so the inbox can remain available between sessions. Attachments are saved to the device's Downloads collection only after the user explicitly requests a download.

The app also stores local preferences such as interface language, appearance, default mail domain, and automatic inbox refresh. These preferences are used only to operate the app. The current Google Play release does not enable push notifications, does not request notification permission, and does not register a Firebase Cloud Messaging token.

Users can delete the active mailbox and its messages from the server from within the app. Users can separately clear saved mailbox history and cached messages from the device. Temporary mailboxes and server-side messages expire automatically under the service's retention rules. Uninstalling the app removes its private local app data, subject to Android platform behavior.

The Android app does not access contacts, precise location, photos, microphone, camera, permanent email accounts, browsing history, or advertising identifiers. It does not include an advertising or analytics SDK, and app data is not sold or used for personalized advertising, creditworthiness, or purposes unrelated to disposable email functionality.

19. Telegram Bot and Data Transmission

When a user interacts with the Temp Mail Free Telegram bot, we store the Telegram chat identifier, username and display name when available, language code, first-seen time, last-activity time, and delivery status. We also process a randomly generated temporary email address, a short-lived mailbox access token, mailbox expiration information, and the email messages received by that temporary mailbox to provide the requested bot functionality.

The bot sends mailbox information and received email content through the Telegram Bot API so it can appear in the user's private Telegram chat. Telegram processes this data under Telegram's own privacy policy. Users should not use temporary email for banking, healthcare, cryptocurrency, password recovery, or other sensitive accounts.

Users who start the bot may receive limited service announcements sent by the Temp Mail Free administrator. We apply delivery-rate and frequency limits. Telegram users who block the bot are excluded from future deliveries, and their optional profile fields are removed when Telegram reports the block.

The bot works only in private chats. We do not use Telegram bot data for third-party advertising, tracking, profiling, creditworthiness, or purposes unrelated to the Temp Mail Free service, and we do not sell this data.

Temporary mailboxes and their messages expire automatically. A user can also delete the active mailbox and its messages at any time with the /delete command.
