Privacy Policy for Help Mail
Last Updated: November 2025
Your privacy is the most important factor at Help Mail. This policy outlines our commitment to ensuring a completely anonymous and secure experience when you use our free temporary email service.
1. Information We Do Not Collect
The Help Mail service is founded on the principle of requiring zero personal information to provide our temporary mail service. We do not request, collect, store, or track any of the following personal data:
- Personal names, permanent email addresses, or phone numbers.
- Any personally identifiable information (PII).
- Logs of users' Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or geographic location.
- Any history of browsing activity or email usage after the temporary email has been deleted.
- We do not require any form of registration or account creation.
2. Handling of Temporary Email Data
All emails received through the temporary addresses generated by our service are handled as follows:
- Temporary by Nature: Received emails are stored only for a brief, temporary period in the inbox.
- Automatic Deletion: All received emails, along with the temporary address itself, are automatically and permanently deleted after a set duration, which is 5 days.
- No Backups: We do not maintain backups or records of deleted email content or expired temporary addresses.
3. Cookies and Third-Party Services
Help Mail may use minimal cookies for essential site operation or for integrated third-party services:
- Functionality: We use a minimal amount of cookies to ensure the website functions correctly and to remember interface settings.
- Third-Party Services (Advertising & Analytics): We may integrate third-party services such as Google AdSense for serving advertisements or Google Analytics for understanding site traffic. These services may place their own cookies.
- Control: You can manage or reject cookies through your specific browser settings.
