Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2025-11-27

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how smail.now ("we", "our", or "us") handles information when you use our temporary email service.

By using smail.now, you agree to this policy.

2. What information do we collect?

smail.now is designed to minimize the information we collect.

  • Email content: The emails sent to your temporary addresses are stored on our servers for a short time so that you can read them.
  • Technical data: We may store basic technical information such as IP address, browser type, and timestamps for security, debugging, and abuse prevention.

We do not ask you to create an account or provide your real email address by default.

3. How do we use your information?

We use the information we collect to:

  • Deliver emails to your temporary inbox.
  • Maintain and improve the service.
  • Detect and prevent abuse, spam, and attacks.

We do not sell your data.

4. How long do we keep data?

  • Temporary inboxes and emails are kept only for a short time and may be deleted at any moment, with or without notice.
  • Technical logs may be kept longer for security, debugging, and legal reasons.

smail.now is not a long‑term storage service. Once data is deleted, it cannot be recovered.

5. Who can see my emails?

Temporary inboxes are not tied to a personal account. Anyone who knows or guesses the same address may be able to see the incoming emails for that address.

Do not use smail.now for sensitive or private information such as:

  • Banking or payment details
  • Government IDs or legal documents
  • Passwords or security codes for important accounts

6. Cookies and third‑party services

We may use cookies or similar technologies to:

  • Keep the site functioning correctly
  • Measure basic usage (for example, anonymous analytics)
  • Protect the service from abuse

If we use third‑party services (for example, analytics or error reporting), they may receive limited technical data as part of providing their service. These providers are expected to handle data according to their own privacy policies.

7. Data sharing and legal requirements

We may share or preserve information when necessary to:

  • Comply with applicable laws or legal processes
  • Respond to valid law enforcement requests
  • Protect the rights, property, or safety of smail.now, our users, or others

We do not share data with advertisers for the purpose of building advertising profiles.

8. Where is data processed?

smail.now may process and store data in different regions or with third‑party infrastructure providers. Your data may be transferred across borders depending on where the service is hosted.

9. Children’s privacy

smail.now is not directed to children under the age where they can legally provide consent to online services in their jurisdiction. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

If the changes are material, we may provide additional notice where reasonable.
