Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Welcome to the eTemp.email Frequently Asked Questions section! Here you'll find answers to the most common questions about our temporary email service. We aim to make your experience as simple and secure as possible.


What is a temporary email address?

A temporary email address is a short-lived, disposable email address that lets you receive messages without revealing your personal or primary email address. It's ideal for situations where you need to sign up for websites, test online services, or simply avoid getting spam and unwanted newsletters in your main inbox. eTemp.email provides exactly these types of addresses – instantly and with no registration.


How long does a temporary email address last?

Temporary email addresses created on eTemp.email are automatically deleted along with all received messages after 24 hours from their generation. This ensures your privacy remains protected and your temporary inbox doesn't accumulate unnecessary information. After this period, the address is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.


Is it safe to use a temporary email address?

Yes, it's absolutely safe to use temporary email addresses when it comes to protecting your privacy. They are specifically designed to:

  • Block spam: Prevent unwanted messages from reaching your personal inbox.
  • Protect against phishing: Reduce the risk of phishing attacks, as your primary address remains hidden.
  • Preserve data: eTemp.email doesn't require registration and doesn't store your personal data related to using the service. Your messages are also automatically deleted, leaving no traces.

However, it's important to use them responsibly and not for confidential correspondence requiring permanent access.


Can I use a temporary email address for attachments?

Yes, absolutely! Temporary email addresses on eTemp.email can receive attachments. This allows you to safely download files sent to your temp email without risking your main inbox. We ensure full functionality for incoming messages.


Do I need to register to use the service?

No, registration is not required. The eTemp.email service is designed for maximum convenience, anonymity, and ease of use. You don't need to create an account, set a password, or provide any personal data. Just open the homepage, and an address will be generated instantly.


Can I send emails from a temporary address?

No, our service is designed for receiving messages only. eTemp.email focuses on ensuring your privacy and protecting you from spam by providing a one-way communication channel. This helps prevent service misuse, such as sending spam or phishing, and ensures its security for all users.


What happens to my emails after the temporary address expires?

After the 24-hour expiration period, your temporary email address and all associated messages are completely and irrevocably deleted from our servers. This means you won't be able to access or recover them. This policy aims for maximum protection of your privacy and minimization of data storage.


Can I recover an expired email address?

No, unfortunately, this is not possible. Once a temporary email address and its content have been automatically deleted (after 24 hours), they cannot be recovered. Our system is designed to ensure complete data erasure for your privacy.


For what purposes shouldn't I use a temporary email?

While temporary email is extremely useful for privacy protection, it should not be used for registering on critically important services that require permanent and reliable account access. These include:

  • Banking and financial accounts.
  • Government or healthcare portals.
  • Primary social media or messaging accounts.
  • Any service where you store important personal information and might need email access for password recovery or action confirmation in the future.

Use temporary email for cases where anonymity and disposability are key benefits, not for long-term commitments.
