01Overview

Mailbucket is a temporary email service designed to protect your privacy. This page explains exactly what is stored and for how long.

02What we store

• The temporary addresses you create
• Messages delivered to those addresses, including headers, body and attachments
• Basic metadata such as sender, subject, size and timestamps
• A token in your browser's local storage so you can return to your inbox

03What we do not do

• No account registration and no personal details
• No cookies for tracking and no analytics scripts
• No selling or sharing of data with third parties

04How the data is used

• To deliver and display messages to the address owner
• To delete addresses and their contents once they expire

05Retention

• Temporary addresses expire automatically — 24 hours by default
• Messages and attachments are removed together with the address
• Individual messages can be deleted at any time from the inbox
• No backups are kept after deletion

06Security

• Access requires the unique token issued with the address
• The token never leaves your browser except to call the API
• HTML messages are rendered in a sandboxed frame with scripts disabled

07Your control

• Delete any message whenever you want
• Generate a new address at any time
• Clear your browser storage to stop using an address
