Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 6, 2025

Welcome to ThrowMail (“we,” “us,” “our”). Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use ThrowMail and its related services available at https://throwmail.org (“Service” or “Website”).

By using ThrowMail, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue using our Service.

1. Overview of Our Service

ThrowMail provides a free temporary email (disposable email) service that allows users to create a random, short-lived email address to receive emails without revealing their personal email accounts.
All emails and inbox data are automatically deleted within 24 hours.

We do not require any registration, personal details, or account creation to use our Service.

2. Information We Collect

2.1. Automatically Collected Data

When you use ThrowMail, we may automatically collect certain technical and usage data, such as:

  • Your IP address and approximate location (for analytics and security)

  • Browser type, operating system, and device information

  • Date and time of access

  • Pages visited and general usage patterns

This information is collected in an aggregated and anonymous form and cannot identify you personally.

2.2. Cookies and Analytics

ThrowMail uses cookies to improve user experience and analyze website traffic.

  • Cookies help us understand how visitors use our site and allow us to enhance functionality and performance.

  • We may use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics or similar services) to collect anonymous usage statistics.

  • No personal data is stored or tracked through cookies.

You can disable cookies anytime through your browser settings; however, doing so may affect certain site features.

2.3. Temporary Email Content

  • When an email is received through a ThrowMail-generated address, the email’s content, attachments, and headers are temporarily stored on our servers to display it to you.

  • All stored emails are automatically and permanently deleted after 24 hours.

  • Once deleted, emails cannot be recovered.

We do not log, index, or analyze the content of emails beyond what’s necessary for service functionality.

3. How We Use Information

We use collected information to:

  • Provide and maintain our temporary email service

  • Monitor and analyze usage to improve site performance

  • Prevent abuse, spam, and system misuse

  • Comply with legal obligations, if applicable

We do not sell, rent, or trade user data to any third parties.

4. Data Retention and Deletion

  • Emails and inbox data: Automatically deleted within 24 hours after receipt.

  • System logs and analytics data: Retained for a limited time to analyze usage trends and detect malicious activity.

  • Once deleted, data is permanently removed from our servers and cannot be restored.

5. Data Location and Processing

All ThrowMail servers and infrastructure are hosted in the United States (USA).
By using our Service, you consent to the processing of your data in the USA, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country.

6. Third-Party Services

ThrowMail may use third-party providers to:

  • Host and maintain the Service

  • Analyze traffic and performance (e.g., analytics providers)

These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements and cannot use your data for any other purpose.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services linked to from our platform.

7. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your browser to enhance your browsing experience.
We use:

  • Essential cookies for basic site functionality

  • Analytics cookies for understanding site traffic and performance

You may control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Continued use of the site implies consent to cookie usage.

8. Children’s Privacy

ThrowMail is not intended for children under 13 years of age.
We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children.
If you believe a child has provided us with any data, please contact us so we can delete it immediately.

9. Data Security

We implement technical and organizational measures to secure your data against unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.
However, no online system can guarantee absolute security, and you use ThrowMail at your own risk.

10. Legal Requests and Compliance

We may disclose limited information when legally required to do so (e.g., court order, law enforcement request).
Since ThrowMail does not store personal data or long-term email records, compliance is limited to available non-identifiable logs.

11. Your Rights

As a user, you have the right to:

  • Refuse cookies

  • Use the service anonymously without sharing personal information

  • Stop using the service at any time (all data auto-deletes)

Because we do not store any identifiable user data, there is no user data to access, edit, or delete.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically.
Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Effective Date.”
We encourage you to review this page regularly to stay informed about how we protect your information.
