1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide information to the site owner, and to improve user experience. This policy explains how Throwmail.io - Disposable Email Service uses cookies and similar technologies in accordance with EU law, including the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC as amended) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the website to function (e.g. session management, security, load balancing). These do not require your consent under EU law but we inform you about them.
Preference cookies: Remember your choices (e.g. language, theme such as dark/light mode) so we can provide a more personalised experience. These are based on your consent where required.
Analytics and performance cookies: If we use them, they help us understand how visitors use our site (e.g. pages visited, errors). We use them only with your consent and in a way that respects your privacy (e.g. anonymised where possible).
Marketing cookies: If we use them, they are used to deliver relevant ads or measure ad campaigns. We use them only with your consent.

3. Legal Basis and Consent

Under the ePrivacy rules and GDPR:

Strictly necessary cookies are used on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing a secure and functional service (or legal obligation where applicable).
Non-essential cookies (e.g. preference, analytics, marketing) are used only with your consent. You can give or withdraw consent at any time via our cookie banner or settings, or via your browser settings.

Your consent is stored so we remember your choice (e.g. in a cookie or local storage). Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

4. Cookie Duration

Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period (e.g. until you withdraw consent or for a defined number of days or months). We do not keep non-essential cookies longer than necessary for their purpose.
