Data Retention & Automatic Deletion — TrashMail.in

Last updated:11/12/2025

This page explains how long temporary emails are stored on TrashMail.in, how deletion works, and what happens to expired inboxes. Our service prioritizes privacy and ensures that all temporary email data is automatically removed without manual intervention.

1. Email Retention Time

Emails received on TrashMail.in are stored temporarily. Each generated inbox has a limited lifespan. After this time has passed, all messages associated with that inbox are automatically removed.

We do not retain emails beyond their expiration window.

2. Automatic Deletion Process

TrashMail.in uses an automated system to delete messages and inboxes without manual action:

  • Once an inbox reaches its expiration time, all stored emails are deleted permanently.
  • No user identity is linked to the temporary inbox.
  • The system periodically clears expired messages from storage.

This deletion process helps ensure user privacy and maintain system efficiency.

3. No Backups or Recovery Options

TrashMail.in does not maintain backups of emails received on temporary inboxes. After a message or inbox is deleted, it cannot be:

  • Restored
  • Recovered
  • Viewed again
  • Provided to the user in any form

This is a core privacy feature of our service.

4. User Control & Limitations

Because TrashMail.in does not store personal data or user accounts, you cannot request deletion of specific inboxes or messages. All deletion happens automatically based on our retention schedule.

Users are encouraged to save any important information from temporary emails before the inbox expires.

5. Security & Storage Methods

We follow privacy-first practices:

  • Emails are stored only temporarily.
  • No long-term archives or logs of message content exist.
  • Inboxes are isolated and not associated with real identities.
  • All connections to TrashMail.in use HTTPS encryption.

6. Important Limitations

Because messages are automatically deleted:

  • We are not responsible for loss of information after deletion.
  • We cannot retrieve expired emails.
  • Users must avoid sending or receiving important, sensitive or critical data using temporary inboxes.
