Privacy Policy

Last Updated: July 2026 · UK GDPR Compliant · ICO Registered

1. Who We Are

NOTSPAM.uk is operated by ItsMyApp.co.uk. For all data protection enquiries, please contact our Data Privacy Lead at hello@itsmyapp.co.uk.

2. Our Zero-Data Architecture

NOTSPAM.uk is a client-side-only application. By design:

  • We store zero personal data on any server operated by or on behalf of NOTSPAM.uk
  • All email address generation occurs in your browser using a cryptographically secure random number generator
  • Email message content is fetched directly from a third-party relay (1secmail.com) and rendered only within your browser session
  • A browser refresh permanently and irrecoverably destroys your session
  • We set no persistent cookies and use no client-side storage (localStorage, IndexedDB, etc.)

3. Information Points We May Process

In the course of operating our infrastructure and protecting against abuse, we may transiently process the following categories of information:

Technical & Network Data

  • IP address (processed by our hosting infrastructure for fraud detection and abuse prevention)
  • Browser user-agent string (for compatibility and bot detection)
  • Request timestamps and HTTP status codes (for fault diagnosis)
  • TLS handshake metadata (for connection security)

System Usage Metrics

  • Aggregate request volumes (no individual identification)
  • Error rates and response times (for service stability)

Where any transient processing occurs, we rely on the following legal bases under UK GDPR:

ART. 6(1)(f)

Legitimate Interests

Infrastructure stabilisation, malware and fraud detection, connection parameter verification to minimise structural abuse, and critical fault diagnosis and repair. These processing operations are managed under recognised Legitimate Interests grounds. A Legitimate Interests Assessment (LIA) has been conducted and is available on request. No balancing assessment override applies given the minimal privacy impact and the absence of any sensitive data categories.

5. Third-Party Services

NOTSPAM.uk uses 1secmail.comas a third-party email relay provider. When you use the Service, your browser makes direct API requests to 1secmail.com to retrieve messages. 1secmail.com's own privacy policy and data retention terms apply to any data transmitted to their servers. We have no control over 1secmail.com's data practices and encourage you to review their documentation.

Our hosting infrastructure is provided by Vercel, Inc., which may process technical connection data as described in section 3. Vercel's data processing agreements are compliant with UK GDPR requirements.
