This policy explains how InstaGenerate ("we", "us", "our"), the operator of randomemailgenerator.online, handles information when you use the site. We're based in the United Kingdom.
The short version: we don't ask you to sign up, we don't run contact forms, and we don't collect personal details from you directly. The generators run in your browser. The main things worth knowing about are the temporary email service, which relies on a third party, and the cookies set by advertising and analytics.
Information you give us: none
There are no accounts, logins, sign-up forms, or contact forms on this site. We don't ask for your name, email address, or any other personal detail to use the tools.
The passwords and usernames you generate are created entirely in your browser. They are never sent to us and never stored on our servers — we never see them.
The temporary email tool
The temporary email feature works differently, and you should understand how before you use it. The temporary inboxes are provided through a third-party email service. When you generate a temporary address, that address and any messages sent to it are handled by that external provider, not by us, and are subject to the provider's own privacy practices.
⚠️ Temporary inboxes are public. Anyone using the same service can potentially see messages sent to a temporary address. Use them for one-off verification codes and throwaway sign-ups only — never for anything sensitive, and never for accounts you'll need to log back into.
Information collected automatically
Analytics (Google Analytics / GA4)
We use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used — for example, which tools people open and how many visits we get. Our analytics record which tool was used and whether a result was copied. They do not record the actual passwords, usernames, or email addresses you generate. Google Analytics may set cookies and process your IP address under Google's own terms.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
We display advertising through Google AdSense. AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve and measure ads, and may show personalised advertising based on your prior activity across websites. This data is processed by Google under its own policies, not ours. You can review and manage it here:
- Google Privacy Policy
- How Google uses information from sites that use its services
- Manage your Google ad settings (including opting out of personalised ads)
Affiliate links
Some pages contain affiliate links to products we think are relevant — for example, password managers alongside our password guide. If you click one and go on to buy, the partner may set a cookie to credit the referral, and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Where this applies, we mark it clearly on the page.
Cookies and consent
The cookies on this site come from the third parties above (advertising and analytics) rather than from us directly. Where required, these are set on the basis of your consent, which you can give or withdraw through the cookie banner and your browser settings. You can also clear cookies at any time through your browser, and manage Google's advertising cookies through the link above.
Your rights under UK GDPR
Because we don't hold personal data about you directly, most requests relate to the data processed by the third parties above. You have the right to:
- Access any personal data held about you (we hold none directly)
- Request correction or deletion of data — for advertising data, manage this through your Google account
- Withdraw consent for cookies at any time
- Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk) if you believe your rights have been infringed
Children
This site is not intended for anyone under 18, and we don't knowingly collect information about minors.
External sites
We link to external sites, including the temporary email provider, advertising and analytics services, and affiliate partners. We're not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and we'd encourage you to read their policies.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent change.
