At emaily.app, we believe in radical transparency. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies to ensure our disposable email service remains fast, secure, and reliable. This policy complies with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and Canada's PIPEDA.
1. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the owners of the site.
2. How We Use Cookies in 2026
We use a very limited number of cookies. Unlike many other services, we do not use cookies to build advertising profiles or track your behavior on other websites. Our cookies are classified as follows:
A. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for you to move around the website and use its features, such as accessing your temporary inbox. Without these cookies, the service cannot function. These do not require your prior consent under UK and Canadian law.
- Session ID: Maintains your current temporary email session while you navigate the site.
- Security/hCaptcha: Helps prevent automated bots from abusing our service.
B. Performance & Analytics Cookies
We may use anonymous analytics to understand how many people visit emaily.app and which features are most popular. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
3. Managing Your Preferences
In accordance with 2026 UK and Canadian privacy standards, you have the right to choose which cookies you accept. Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings:
- Open your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge).
- Navigate to the "Privacy" or "Security" settings.
- Choose to block, delete, or receive notifications for cookies.
Please note that if you choose to block all cookies, emaily.app may not function correctly, as we will be unable to remember your temporary inbox as you move between pages.
4. Third-Party Cookies
We generally avoid third-party cookies. However, some security features (like hCaptcha) may set a cookie to verify that you are a human user. These providers are bound by strict privacy agreements and do not use your data for their own marketing purposes.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology or data protection laws. We encourage you to check this page periodically for updates.
