Read these terms before using a temporary address

We receive email; we don’t create third-party accounts for you

Tempslot is an email receiving and forwarding service, not an outbound email service. When you enter an address on another website to request a trial, subscribe to updates, or download material, your relationship is with that website. An available inbox doesn’t mean your registration is approved, you’re authorized, or you qualify for a trial.

Temporary email

A short-term inbox you can create without signing in. Check its messages on this page. It’s for one-off tasks—not a permanent contact address or your only way to recover an account.

Long-term forwarding alias

A separate address you create after signing in with a verification code sent to your real email. Incoming messages are forwarded to that email. You can pause or delete an alias, but “long-term” doesn’t mean permanent, always available, or exempt from service changes.

Email archive

A 30-day record of messages sent to long-term aliases and their forwarding status. Temporary inbox messages aren’t included. The archive is for short-term reference and troubleshooting; it isn’t a substitute for your own backups, evidence preservation, or the records held by the website you’re using.

If you need to keep receiving updates, manage your aliases through the long-term forwarding page. If you handle personal information, also read our Privacy Policy to understand how related data is handled and retained.

Use a short-term address for short-term tasks

You can use Tempslot when you have the legal right to do so and the website allows that type of email address. Check its rules for work email, registration limits, use of downloaded materials, and subscriptions. If it rejects your address, don’t use a different one to get around its restrictions.

Before filling out a download form, see our guide to downloading materials. Applying for a software trial? Start with the trial sign-up steps. These guides help you use the service correctly; they don’t mean a third-party website endorses Tempslot or is affiliated with your application.

Convenience doesn’t let you bypass the rules

You’re responsible for how you use the service and for ensuring the content you receive is lawful. Don’t use temporary addresses or aliases to harm others. The ability to create more addresses doesn’t give you more registrations, trials, discounts, or access.

If you notice suspicious activity, stop and contact support@tempslot.com. You can include when it happened, the relevant address, and a brief description. Don’t send sign-in codes, authenticator keys, or the full text of sensitive emails.

Once the inbox closes, don’t rely on it as a key

Temporary inboxes are valid for 3 hours by default. Each renewal adds 3 hours, up to a maximum validity of 24 hours. Check the inbox and actual service response for the time remaining. Renew while the address is still active. Clicking the button doesn’t guarantee the request succeeded—check that the countdown changes and a success message appears.

Use an email address you can control and protect long-term for important accounts, payment services, medical information, security alerts, and password recovery. You’re responsible for saving verification results, downloaded materials, and account recovery details. Tempslot can’t restore accounts on third-party websites or undo actions you’ve taken there.

Refreshing your inbox doesn’t speed up the sender’s queue

Auto-refresh checks for messages that have already reached Tempslot. It can’t speed up a third-party website’s sending queue or make it accept a temporary address. On-page statements such as “arrives in seconds” describe the inbox-checking experience; they don’t guarantee that every email will arrive, arrive immediately, or that the service will remain uninterrupted.

• A website may reject the address. Some websites accept only business email or block temporary email domains. Respect their requirements. If needed, use a real email address that meets them instead of repeatedly creating addresses to get around the restriction.
• Messages may be delayed or never arrive. Sender queues, rate limits, spam filters, domain policies, network outages, and maintenance can all affect delivery. A verification code may expire before it arrives.
• Forwarding and original delivery are separate steps. Even after an alias receives a message, your real inbox may be delayed in receiving it or may put it in spam. Checking the archive status can help troubleshoot, but it can’t guarantee that the recipient accepts the message.

While you wait, check the address and how long it remains valid, then confirm the website says the message was sent. Requesting another verification code may invalidate the previous one, so follow the sender’s instructions. For troubleshooting steps, see our verification email wait timeline. For urgent matters or anything you can’t replace, use a reliable backup channel.

If there’s a problem, understand the limits first

Abuse response and service changes

To address abuse, security risks, legal requirements, or resource constraints, we may limit request rates, pause addresses or accounts, block delivery, or end use that violates these terms. Actions will be proportionate to the risk. We may be unable to give advance notice in urgent security situations or when required by law.

We may change service features, quotas, supported addresses, and retention rules. We’ll explain important changes on this page, through an in-service notice, or by another appropriate channel. If we change these terms, we’ll update this page’s date. Where reasonably practicable, we’ll give advance notice of changes with a significant impact and meet any notice requirements under applicable law.

Reasonable limits on our liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we don’t guarantee that third-party websites will approve a sign-up or trial, that materials will be downloadable, that emails will arrive on time, or that third-party accounts can be recovered. Choose an email address suited to the risks of your task and save anything important before the address expires or is deleted. We remain liable for anything that applicable law doesn’t allow us to exclude or limit.

These terms don’t limit your statutory consumer rights or exclude liability that can’t legally be excluded, including liability for intentional misconduct or gross negligence. If a dispute concerns a specific loss or decision, contact us first and explain what happened. If we can’t resolve it together, you may seek help from a competent authority as permitted by law.
