the story

Built for one idea: your inbox is a master key.

Every day, the average person hands their email address to a service they barely trust — for a forum account, a free trial, a gaming alt, a newsletter they will never read. Each handoff is a copy of a master key. Data brokers collect those copies. Breaches resell them. Spam engines weaponize them.

TempMail started as a simple idea: what if the least-trustworthy signups got a mailbox that literally disappears? Not a "delete your account" button somewhere in a settings menu — but an inbox that is physically erased from a Google server five minutes after the mail arrives. No archive. No backup. No recovery. Just the OTP you needed, and then nothing.

We are a small independent team of engineers and privacy nerds. We run real Gmail accounts on a real IMAP engine we built from scratch, we gift those inboxes to the public for free, and we pay for the infrastructure with ads and a few tool pages — never with your data.

our principles

  • Zero personal data collected, ever.
  • All mail expunged within 5 minutes — by design.
  • Real Gmail accounts, never fake domains.
  • Public means public: we never hide what an inbox contains.
  • No phone numbers, no signups, no paywalls.

mission

Give every internet citizen a free, credible, disposable identity layer — one inbox per low-trust context — so their real inbox stays clean, private, and theirs.
