Privacy Policy for Temp Mail: Spam Shield

Temp Mail: Spam Shield (“we”, “our”, or “the App”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use our mobile application.

By using Temp Mail: Spam Shield, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Purpose of the App

Temp Mail: Spam Shield is designed to help users receive temporary email messages, view email content, display inline images and attachments, and protect users from unwanted or spam email content.

The App may show advertisements to support free access to the service.

2. Information We Process

Depending on how you use the App, we may process the following types of information:

Temporary Email Data

The App may process:

• Temporary email addresses generated or used inside the App
• Incoming email sender information
• Email subject lines
• Email body/content
• Attachments
• Inline images
• Message timestamps
• Spam or filtering status

This information is processed to display your temporary emails and related content inside the App.

Attachment and Image Data

Emails may include attachments or inline images. The App may temporarily store attachment metadata and local file references so that attachments and inline images can be displayed correctly.

We do not use your email attachments or inline images for advertising profiling.

Device and App Information

The App or third-party services may process limited technical information, such as:

• Device type and model
• Operating system version
• App version
• Language and region settings
• Network state
• Crash or error information
• Advertising identifiers, where permitted by your device settings

This information helps maintain, secure, improve, and monetize the App.

Advertising and Ad Delivery Data

The App uses advertising services, including Google AdMob, to display ads. Advertising partners may collect or receive data such as:

• Advertising ID
• Approximate location
• Device information
• App interaction data
• Ad impressions, clicks, and performance data
• Diagnostics and crash-related information

Advertising data may be used to deliver, limit, measure, and improve ads.

You can manage or reset your advertising ID through your device settings.

3. How We Use Information

We use information for the following purposes:

• To provide temporary email functionality
• To receive, display, and manage email messages
• To show email attachments and inline images
• To detect and organize spam-like content
• To improve app performance and stability
• To fix bugs and diagnose crashes
• To prevent abuse, misuse, or technical interference
• To show advertisements
• To comply with legal obligations where required

4. Ads and Third-Party Services

Temp Mail: Spam Shield may use Google AdMob and related Google Mobile Ads services to display banner ads, interstitial ads, rewarded ads, app open ads, and native ads.

Google may use information from the App to provide and improve advertising services. Google explains how it uses information from apps and websites that use its services in its own policies.

Third-party advertising partners may process information according to their own privacy policies. We do not control the data practices of third-party advertising networks.

5. Personalized and Non-Personalized Ads

Depending on your region, consent settings, and device preferences, the App may show personalized or non-personalized ads.

Personalized ads may be based on your interests or advertising identifiers. Non-personalized ads may still use limited data such as your approximate location, device type, or app context to deliver ads.

You may be able to manage ad personalization through your device settings or through consent options shown inside the App, where available.

6. Ad Block, VPN, and Private DNS Detection

The App may include protection features that detect conditions that interfere with ad delivery or app functionality, such as:

• VPN connections
• Private DNS settings
• Known ad-blocking applications
• Network configurations that block advertising services

This detection is used to protect the App’s advertising-supported model and maintain service availability. The App may limit functionality or display notices if ad-blocking conditions are detected.

We do not use this information to identify you personally.

7. Local Storage

Some email data, attachment metadata, cached files, app settings, and technical data may be stored locally on your device.

Local storage is used to:

• Display emails faster
• Keep temporary messages available while using the App
• Show attachments and inline images correctly
• Maintain app preferences
• Improve app stability

You can delete locally stored data by clearing the App’s data from your device settings or uninstalling the App.

8. Email Content and Attachments

Email messages, attachments, and inline images may contain personal or sensitive information sent by third parties.

You are responsible for deciding what temporary email address you use and what content you receive through it.

We recommend that you do not use temporary email addresses for highly sensitive accounts, financial services, medical services, legal services, or any service where long-term access is important.

9. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal email content.

We may share limited information in the following situations:

• With advertising partners to show and measure ads
• With service providers that help operate or improve the App
• When required by law, legal process, or government request
• To protect the rights, safety, or security of users, the App, or others
• In connection with a business transfer, merger, acquisition, or sale of assets

Third-party services process data according to their own privacy policies.

10. Data Retention

Temporary email data may be retained only as long as needed to provide the App’s functionality, unless a longer period is required by law or necessary for security, abuse prevention, or technical operations.

Locally stored data may remain on your device until:

• You delete emails inside the App
• You clear the App’s data
• You uninstall the App
• The App automatically removes cached or temporary data

Advertising and analytics data may be retained by third-party services according to their own retention policies.

11. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information processed by the App.

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of any information sent to or processed through the App.
