Mission

Privacy is a right, not a feature.

We exist to make ephemeral, private communication the default — not the exception. Here's what drives every decision we make.

The internet demands your email. We push back.

Every time you sign up for anything online, you hand over something permanent — your real email address. It gets shared, sold, harvested, and used to track you across the web for years after you've forgotten the account existed.

We built TempMail because curiosity shouldn't cost you your privacy. Trying a product shouldn't mean opting into a decade of spam. The default should be anonymous, and the choice to share should be deliberate.

"Privacy is not about having something to hide. It's about having the power to choose what you share, with whom, and when."

— Ólafur Sigurðsson, Co-founder

Privacy by Architecture

We don't ask you to trust our policy. We build systems technically incapable of logging what we don't need.

Privacy for Everyone

Privacy tools shouldn't need technical knowledge or fees. The free tier is permanent and fully functional.

No Third Parties

Zero ad networks, analytics SDKs, tracking pixels, or data brokers. No external scripts touch your session.

Radical Transparency

We publish audit results, the warrant canary, and infrastructure decisions. If something changes, you'll know.

What we promise, forever.

Structural commitments that would require dismantling our architecture to break.

We will never sell your data

No data brokers, no advertising partners, no selling. Ever.

We will always offer a free tier

Privacy should not be a luxury. Core functionality stays free forever.

We will publish audit results publicly

Good findings and bad. Transparency builds more trust than silence.

We will fight surveillance overreach

We'll notify users of legal demands where permitted and contest overreaching requests.
