Email content received at your aliases is processed to provide the forwarding service. Emails are stored temporarily to allow you to view them through our dashboard. We do not analyze email content for advertising purposes.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to:

  • Provide and maintain the Service

Email metadata is retained for billing and service purposes. You may request deletion of your data by contacting us or closing your account.

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest, secure authentication, and regular security audits.
