1. Overview
Ephemeral Tools (“we”, “our”, “the service”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect (spoiler: almost nothing) and how we handle it.
2. Data We Collect
We do not collect personal data.
- No account registration required
- No cookies for tracking purposes
- No analytics that identify individual users
- No email addresses, names, or any personal information stored
3. Temporary Data
By design, all data in Ephemeral Tools is temporary:
- Ephemeral Paste: Pastes are automatically deleted after the chosen expiration time (5 minutes to 24 hours).
- 10 Minute Mail: Email addresses and received emails are automatically deleted after the TTL expires (default: 10 minutes).
Once data expires, it is permanently removed from our servers and cannot be recovered.
4. Server Logs
Our web server may generate standard access logs (IP addresses, timestamps, requested URLs) for operational purposes. These logs are not correlated with user activity and are rotated regularly.
5. Third-Party Services
We may use the following third-party services:
- Google AdSense — for displaying advertisements. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits. You can opt out at Google Ad Settings.
- PayPal / Mercado Pago — for processing voluntary donations. These services have their own privacy policies.
6. Children's Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
