MailboxHero LLC (“MailboxHero”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you use the MailboxHero website and services (“Service”). By using our Service, you agree to the practices described here.
1. Information We Collect
We collect personal and business information necessary to provide our services, including:
- Account Information: Name, email, phone number, and mailing address provided during mail center registration or customer onboarding.

- Communication Data: Support messages, verification requests, and notification preferences.
- Technical Data: Browser type, device identifiers, IP address, and access logs collected automatically for security and analytics.
2. How We Use Information
MailboxHero uses collected data to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Service;
- Authenticate users and prevent unauthorized access;
- Process payments, subscriptions, and billing via Stripe;
- Send transactional messages (verifications, receipts, password resets);
- Assist mail centers in managing mailbox operations and customer access;
- Comply with legal and regulatory obligations, including postal and financial laws.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
We process data under one or more of the following lawful bases:
- Your consent (e.g., when opting into notifications or marketing);
- Performance of a contract (to provide the Service you requested);
- Legal obligations (to comply with tax, postal, or data-retention requirements);
- Legitimate interests (to maintain security, prevent fraud, and improve performance).
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell or rent personal information. We may share limited data with:

5. Data Retention
MailboxHero retains account and transaction information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy. Uploaded mail images follow each mail center’s configured retention policy (e.g., 30–90 days). When a mail center deletes a mailbox or mail item, files and metadata are permanently removed from storage within a reasonable period.
