Cookie Policy

The free inbox works without any cookies at all. Two things live in your browser's local storage:

• Your inbox address and its secret token — this is what lets you reopen your inbox during its 24-hour lifetime. Clearing site data deletes the token, and with it your only way back into that inbox.
• Your theme preference — whether you picked light or dark mode.

Neither item identifies you, leaves your device except to fetch your own mail, or is used for tracking.

If you sign in to a Premium account, our authentication provider (Supabase) sets session cookies so you stay logged in. These are strictly functional. Checkout and billing pages are hosted by Stripe, which sets its own cookies for fraud prevention on its domain — see Stripe's privacy policy.

The free service is ad-supported. On pages that show ads, Google AdSense and its certified partners may set cookies to serve, cap, and measure ads. Where required by law you will be asked for consent before any advertising cookie is set, and Google serves non-personalized ads when consent is declined.

• Opt out of personalized advertising: aboutads.info/choices

Premium is ad-free, so no advertising cookies are set for subscribers.

You can clear cookies and local storage at any time from your browser's site-data settings, and block third-party cookies entirely. The site keeps working — just remember that clearing local storage discards your current free inbox token.
