Privacy policy
This policy explains what data Trumailo collects, why, how long we keep it, and what control you have. We've kept the language plain on purpose.
TL;DR
- We collect your account info, the email addresses you submit for verification, and standard server logs.
- We never store verification addresses in plaintext — only a SHA-256 hash.
- We don't sell your data and we don't train AI models on it.
- You can export everything we have and delete your account from
Settings.
Who we are
"Trumailo", "we", and "us" refer to the Trumailo team. We operate the email-verification service at trumailo.com. For billing questions our merchant-of-record is Paddle.com Market Ltd.
What we collect
When you create an account or use our service we collect:
- Account data — email, hashed password, display name, optional 2FA secret.
- Billing data — held by Paddle; we only mirror your subscription state and the Paddle customer ID.
- Usage data — API requests, response codes, IP address, user agent.
- Sign-in events — timestamp, IP, user agent for the last 25 sign-ins.
What we store about verifications
When you verify an email address (yours or your customers'), we store:
- SHA-256 hash of the address — not the plaintext address.
- The domain (e.g.
gmail.com) for aggregate reporting. - Verdict (valid / risky / invalid / unknown), confidence score, response time, signal-by-signal results.
The raw address lives in memory only for the duration of the verification request. It is never written to a database, log file, or cache.
Why we collect it
- To authenticate you and bill you for the service.
- To prevent abuse (rate limiting, brute-force protection, fraud detection).
- To improve our verifier — aggregate signal-rate stats by domain, never per-address.
- To provide customer support when you contact us.
How long we keep it
- Account data — while your account is active; deleted within 30 days of account deletion.
- Verifications — 18 months, then aggregated.
- Server logs — 30 days.
- Sign-in events — 90 days, capped at 25 most recent.
- Webhook delivery log — 30 days.

Security
Passwords are hashed with bcrypt. API keys are stored as SHA-256 hashes. 2FA is available via TOTP. Sessions can be revoked across all devices at any time. The full security posture is documented at /security.
International transfers
We may transfer data outside your country to our cloud provider's regions. Where required we rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and equivalent UK / Swiss mechanisms. EU data residency is available on Enterprise plans.
Children
Trumailo is not directed at children under 16. We don't knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has provided us data, email us and we'll delete it.
