Privacy Policy for Dakbox.net
Effective Date: 2026-02-26

Thank you for choosing Dakbox.net ("we," "us," "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website https://dakbox.net or use our temporary email service, browser extensions, and API (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing or using Dakbox.net, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the site.

1. Information We Collect
Dakbox.net is designed to protect your privacy and reduce spam. Because we offer an anonymous, temporary email service, we collect as little personal information as possible.

A. Information Collected Automatically
When you visit or use our Services, our servers automatically record certain information, including:

Usage Data: IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, referring URLs, pages viewed, and access times.
Cookies & Locally Stored Data: We may use cookies or browser Local Storage to store your language preferences, active temporary email addresses (session continuity), and basic site settings.

B. Information You Provide to Us
Temporary Emails: Any emails sent to a Dakbox.net email address are received and stored temporarily on our servers.
Account Information (For Premium/Registered Users): If you sign up for an account to purchase premium subscriptions (e.g., custom domains, Lifetime plans, OTP Helper), we collect your name, email address (for account recovery/receipts), and billing history. We do not store your credit card information directly; offline payments are handled manually, and secure gateways process automated transactions.
Support Requests: If you contact us for customer support, we will collect whatever information you volunteer via email or our contact forms.

2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to operate, manage, and improve our temporary email services:

Delivering Temporary Emails: To receive, display, and automatically delete emails routed to the temporary addresses you generate.
Account Management: To manage premium subscriptions, provide API keys, and enforce usage limits (e.g., OTP Helper quotas).
Service Improvement: To analyze usage trends, monitor website performance, and enhance user experience.
Security: To detect, prevent, and address technical issues, spam, fraud, or abuse of our API and network.

3. Storage and Deletion of Data
The core functionality of Dakbox.net relies on the automatic destruction of data.

Email Content: Incoming emails are stored temporarily. Depending on server settings and plan limitations, all temporary emails, including attachments, are permanently and irreversibly deleted from our servers after an expiration period or when manually deleted by the user.
No Backups of Inbox Content: We do not archive or backup the contents of your temporary inboxes.
Account Data: If you create a registered user account, your account data (name, real email, subscription status) is retained until you request account deletion.

4. How We Share Your Information
We respect your privacy and do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may only disclose your data in the following situations:

Legal Compliance: If required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency).
Protection of Rights: To defend our legal rights, investigate fraud, or protect the safety and security of Dakbox.net, our users, or the public.
Service Providers: We may employ third-party companies securely (such as hosting providers, payment gateways, or analytic tools) to facilitate our Service. These third parties have access to your data only to perform tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.

5. Security of Your Information
While no online service is 100% secure, we implement commercially acceptable security procedures and practices to protect the data generated on our site from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure. However, due to the nature of a public, anonymous temporary email service, please do not use Dakbox.net for sensitive, highly confidential, or critical communications.

6. Children's Privacy
Our Services are not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us so we can promptly delete it.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
