Cookie Policy
Last Updated: May 19, 2025
Summary: easytrashmail uses only the absolute minimum technical cookies needed for basic functionality. We use no tracking, advertising, or analytics cookies whatsoever. We collect no personal data through cookies or other means.
1. Our No-Tracking Approach
At easytrashmail, we are committed to providing a service that respects your privacy completely. Unlike most websites, we do not use cookies to track your behavior, analyze usage patterns, or collect any personal information. The only cookies we use are the absolute minimum required for the basic functionality of the service.
2. Minimal Cookies
We use cookies sparingly and only when there is no other technical alternative. Our approach is to collect absolutely no unnecessary data:
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| theme | Remembers your preference for light or dark theme (stored locally only, not sent to our servers) | 1 year | Functional |
| etm_active_email | Temporarily stores your current temporary email information (stored locally only, not sent to our servers) | 10 minutes (session) | Essential |
3. No Third-Party Cookies
We do not use any third-party services that might set cookies, such as:
- No analytics tools (like Google Analytics)
- No social media buttons or widgets
- No advertising networks
- No tracking or fingerprinting technologies
This ensures that your browsing behavior remains completely private while using our service.
4. Managing Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these settings in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. You may be able to:
- See what cookies you have and delete them individually
- Block third-party cookies
- Block cookies from particular sites
- Block all cookies
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
Please note that if you choose to block or delete cookies, certain features of easytrashmail may not function properly. In particular, blocking the "etm_active_email" cookie will prevent you from accessing your temporary email after page refresh.
5. Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use browser local storage to store some preferences and temporary data. Local storage is similar to cookies but can store larger amounts of data and is not automatically sent to the server with each request.
We use local storage for:
- Temporarily storing the current active email address
- Remembering your theme preference
Like cookies, you can clear local storage through your browser settings, typically under "Clear browsing data" or similar options.
6. Third-Party Cookies
easytrashmail does not use third-party cookies. We do not include social media buttons, external analytics, or advertising networks that might place their own cookies on your device.
7. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update our Cookie Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
8. Manage Your Cookie Preferences
You can manage your cookie preferences at any time using the controls below. Note that essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for the website to function properly.
