Privacy, Security, and Data Retention Policy

  1. Temporary Email Address Generation

    • Our service generates a unique, temporary email address for each user to confirm their email. This address is used exclusively for receiving the user's email.
  2. Email Receipt and Temporary Storage

    • Once the user's email is received at the generated temporary address, only the email address itself is stored in our system, securely in an encrypted format. It will be retained until either the site owner or their administrator deletes the verification by calling our web service, or for a maximum of 24 hours from the time of receipt, whichever comes first.
  3. Data Encryption

    • To ensure maximum security, all temporarily stored email addresses are encrypted using strong symmetric encryption, safeguarding the data from unauthorized access while in our system.
  4. Authenticated Access

    • Access to the stored email addresses is restricted to authenticated users only. This means that only authorized individuals or systems with valid credentials can access the data. We enforce strict authentication protocols to prevent any unauthorized access.
  5. Privacy Assurance

    • We are committed to protecting the privacy of users' email addresses. Under no circumstances will we share, sell, or disclose users' email addresses to any third party.
  6. Data Deletion

    • The temporarily stored email address will be permanently deleted from our system either after receiving a deletion request via our web service or automatically after 24 hours, whichever comes first.
  7. User Responsibility

    • Site owners and administrators are responsible for handling the confirmed email addresses in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable laws.
  8. Email Collection for Account Registration

    • When users register a new account at emailownership.com, we collect their email address to send important service notifications. We securely store this email address and do not share it with any third parties. The account owner can request account deletion at any time by contacting us and providing their username.
