At MailDropHQ, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how it is used, and what choices you have when using our temporary email service.
1. Information We Collect
MailDropHQ does not require you to register or provide personal details to use our service. The data we handle is limited to:
- Temporary inbox identifiers created by the system or chosen by you.
- Email messages delivered to those inboxes until they expire.
- Basic technical information (such as browser type, IP address, and device information) collected through cookies and analytics.
2. How We Use Information
Information collected is used only for the following purposes:
- Providing inbox functionality for your temporary email.
- Ensuring website security and preventing abuse of the service.
- Displaying non-intrusive advertisements to support the free use of our platform.
We do not sell or share your inbox contents with third parties, and emails are automatically deleted after expiration.
3. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
MailDropHQ uses cookies and similar technologies to keep the service running smoothly. These may include:
- Essential Cookies: Required for basic site features and inbox generation.
- Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how users interact with our service, so we can improve performance.
- Advertising Cookies: Used by Google AdSense and other partners to serve relevant ads.
You may manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that some features may not function properly if cookies are disabled.
4. Google AdSense & Advertising
Our website displays ads provided by Google and other trusted ad networks. These partners may use cookies and technologies to personalize and measure ads.
How it works: Google and third-party vendors use cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your previous visits to this or other websites. This allows ads to be more relevant to your interests.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you may visit AboutAds.info for more industry-wide choices.
Important: Ads are provided strictly as financial support for our free service. They are displayed alongside meaningful content and never replace or reduce access to inbox functionality.
5. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational steps to safeguard data. However, because this is a disposable email service, we strongly advise users not to use MailDropHQ for confidential or sensitive information.
6. Third-Party Links
MailDropHQ may contain links to third-party sites. We are not responsible for the privacy or practices of those external websites. Always review their policies before sharing information.
7. Your Rights & Choices
As a user, you have the right to:
- Opt out of personalized ads as described above.
- Clear or block cookies through your browser.
- Stop using the service at any time if you do not agree with this policy.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. Significant changes may also be highlighted on our homepage.
