Terms of Service

Last updated: July 2026

1. Service Description

MailCatch provides temporary email inboxes for automated testing purposes. The service includes an API for programmatic access, a web dashboard, and SMTP email receiving.

2. Acceptable Use

You agree to use MailCatch only for:

  • Automated software testing (unit, integration, E2E)
  • CI/CD pipeline email verification
  • Development and QA workflows

You may not use MailCatch for:

  • Receiving personal or business correspondence
  • Spam, phishing, or any illegal activity
  • Circumventing sign-up restrictions on other services
  • Storing sensitive personal data (PII, healthcare, financial)

3. Service Limits

Each plan has defined limits for inbox creation, API keys, and message retention. Exceeding limits will result in rejected requests (HTTP 429) until the billing cycle resets. Deleting inboxes does not restore your monthly quota.

4. Data Retention

Messages are automatically deleted after the retention period defined by your plan. We reserve the right to delete inactive accounts (no API calls for 90+ days) after sending a warning email.

5. Availability

We aim for 99.9% uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. Scheduled maintenance will be announced at least 24 hours in advance. We are not liable for data loss due to service outages.

6. Account Termination

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. You may delete your account at any time — all associated data will be permanently removed within 24 hours.

7. Changes

We may update these terms. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. Material changes will be communicated via email.
