Privacy Policy.

Effective date: April 2026

At extractor.email, your privacy is not an afterthought — it is the core design principle of our product. This policy explains exactly what data we process, what touches our servers, and what stays entirely in your browser.

1. Browser-Side Processing

When you paste text into our extractor tool, all processing happens in JavaScript running inside your browser tab. The text you paste, the emails we extract, and any filtered results never leave your device. We do not transmit pasted content to any server, database, or third-party service. When you close the browser tab, the data is gone — there is nothing for us to delete because we never had it.

2. URL Fetching via Cloudflare Workers

When you use the "Fetch from URL" or "Deep Crawl" features, your browser sends the target URL to a Cloudflare Workers function hosted at our domain. This Worker acts as a stateless HTTP proxy:

  • The Worker fetches the HTML content of the page you requested.
  • The HTML is returned to your browser in the response body.
  • The Worker does not log, store, or cache the URL you requested or the HTML content it retrieves.
  • Each request is stateless — there are no sessions, cookies, or request history maintained on the server.
  • Email extraction from the returned HTML happens entirely in your browser.

In short: the Cloudflare Worker sees the URL you want to fetch and the HTML it retrieves, but only for the duration of that single HTTP request. Nothing is persisted.

3. Data We Do Not Collect

We want to be explicit about what we do not do:

  • We do not store any text you paste into the tool.
  • We do not store any emails extracted by the tool.
  • We do not store the URLs you scan or crawl.
  • We do not store the HTML content fetched by our proxy.
  • We do not use cookies for tracking, advertising, or behavioral profiling.
  • We do not create user accounts or maintain user profiles.
  • We do not sell, share, or transfer any data to third parties.

4. Analytics

We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as Cloudflare Web Analytics) to understand aggregate site traffic — page views, referrers, and country-level geography. These analytics are cookie-free, do not track individual users, and do not collect personally identifiable information. No analytics data is shared with third-party advertising networks.

5. Cookies

extractor.email does not set any first-party cookies for tracking purposes. If you interact with third-party embeds (such as links to external sites), those services may set their own cookies under their own policies. We have no control over third-party cookie behavior.

6. Local Storage

The extraction tool may use your browser's local storage or session storage to preserve UI preferences (such as selected extraction mode or filter settings) across sessions. This data is stored exclusively on your device and is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear it at any time through your browser settings.

7. Data Security

Because we do not collect or store user data, the surface area for a data breach is effectively zero. There is no database of emails, no user table, and no scraping history to compromise. The Cloudflare Workers proxy is served over HTTPS and runs in Cloudflare's global edge network with built-in DDoS protection.

8. GDPR and International Privacy

Our architecture is GDPR-friendly by design. Since we do not collect personal data, there is no personal data to process, store, or delete. If you believe we have inadvertently collected personal data, please contact us and we will investigate promptly.

9. Children's Privacy

extractor.email is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Your continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
