NAME
myownmail-privacy — what this mail system collects, why, and what you can do about it.
# tldr
- We collect an email for the waitlist, and an address + password for an active account. That's close to all of it.
- No ad trackers, no analytics pixels, no selling or sharing data — nothing here to opt out of, because it doesn't run.
- Mail between members is end-to-end encrypted; we can't read it even if asked.
- You can request a copy of your data or ask us to delete it, wherever you live.
SYNOPSIS
myownmail collects the minimum needed to run an invite-only inbox. No flag enables ad tracking, because none exists.
DESCRIPTION
Data collected, by trigger:
| field | trigger | purpose |
|---|---|---|
| joins waitlist | notify if a spot opens | |
| address, password_hash | redeems invite | create + secure account |
| message, headers | send/receive mail | deliver mail — encrypted, unreadable by us |
| login_ts, invite_codes | ongoing use | fraud prevention, invite-chain integrity |
No precise location, no biometrics, no browsing activity off this site. No ad trackers or third-party analytics run here.
OPTIONS
Rights available, by jurisdiction flag:
gdpr — European Union & United Kingdom

FILES
- waitlist — retained until invited, or 24 months of inactivity, then deleted.
- account — retained while active, plus 30 days after deletion in case it was accidental.
- security_log — retained up to 12 months, then deleted or anonymized.
ENVIRONMENT
This page sets no cookies. One variable is kept client-side, in your browser's localStorage, and never sent to us:
- MYOWNMAIL_LANG — your selected display language, so it persists on your next visit to this device.
Typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts at render time, which may log your IP address per Google's own privacy policy — the same as any page linking an external font or image host.
SECURITY
Mail between members is end-to-end encrypted by default — we hold no keys and can't read content, including on request from anyone but you. Data at rest is encrypted, production access is minimal, and passwords are salted hashes, never plaintext.
CHILDREN
Not directed at children. No knowing collection from anyone under 16. If found, deleted. Contact below if you believe otherwise.

Material changes to this policy update the date below and, where required, notify account holders directly before taking effect.

BUGS
This page is a design draft for a concept product and is not legal advice. It is not a substitute for review by a qualified privacy attorney in each jurisdiction where the service would operate, and should be verified against real data practices, processors, and breach procedures before any production use.
