Acceptable use policy

Intended use

IndSec Temp Mail exists for low-risk, short-lived interactions: one-off signups, trial registrations, newsletters, forum access, and software testing. It exists so your primary address stays out of marketing lists and low-trust databases.

Prohibited

• Spam. Sending unsolicited bulk mail to or from addresses on this service.
• Fraud and impersonation. Using an address to deceive a person or a system, or to pose as someone else.
• Phishing and malware. Any use connected to credential theft, malicious attachments, or links to malicious content.
• Harassment and abuse. Using the service to contact or target a person against their wishes.
• Evading enforcement. Creating addresses to circumvent a ban, a suspension, or a duplicate-account restriction imposed by another service.
• Illegal content. Any material that is unlawful in the jurisdiction where it is received or stored.
• Service abuse. Automated creation of addresses at scale, attempts to read other people's inboxes, or activity intended to degrade or overload the service.

Why some legitimate uses are still discouraged

Even where a use is not prohibited, some are unwise. A disposable address cannot receive a password reset next week. Attaching one to an account you care about about guarantees you will eventually lose access. This is a limitation of the tool, not a rule.

What we do not do

We do not monitor the content of messages for advertising purposes, and we do not sell message data. However, this is a shared public service: do not treat an inbox as a private vault.

Rate limits

Address creation is rate limited per IP address. Additional limits may apply to message volume per inbox. Exceeding a limit returns an error with a retry hint; it is not a permanent block.

Reporting abuse

If you believe an address on this service is being used to abuse you or your systems, report it to the operator of the domain you are using, including the address, the message, and a description of the problem. Reports are handled at the operator's discretion.

Consequences

Addresses used in violation of this policy may be disabled or deleted without notice. Repeat or severe violations may result in broader restrictions on the service.
