Avoid Spam with Temporary Email
Tired of a cluttered inbox? TempMy gives you a temporary email address in one click, so you can catch confirmation links and codes without handing your personal address to every low-risk site that accepts temporary email.
Why it matters
Why signups and downloads create spam risk
Every time you hand over your personal address for a quick signup or download, it can be added to a mailing list, shared with other services, or exposed in a data breach. Most of that mail is one-time in value but keeps arriving long after you needed it.
Shared addresses
Your address can be passed between services and partners once it is in a database.
Breach exposure
The more places store your personal address, the more chances it has to leak in a breach.
How it helps
How temporary email helps reduce inbox spam
A temporary address does not block spam, but it keeps it away from the inbox you rely on. Low-risk signups land in a short-lived inbox you can leave behind, so promotional and follow-up mail never reaches your personal address.
Instant address
Get a ready-to-use address in seconds, with no account, password, or personal details required.
Receive-only
Read incoming confirmation links and codes. The inbox receives messages but does not send.
Keep it separate
Send low-risk signups to a temporary inbox and keep your personal one clean.
Walk away
Leave the address behind once you are done so later mail never reaches you.
