Privacy Policy

We collect information to provide and improve our free B2B email database services. The types of information we collect depend on how you interact with Free Email Database.

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• Service delivery — to create and manage your account, process requests, and provide access to our free B2B email database
• Platform improvement — to analyze usage patterns, diagnose technical issues, and develop new features
• Communication — to send account notifications, respond to inquiries, and provide customer support
• Security — to detect, prevent, and address fraud, unauthorized access, and other security concerns
• Legal compliance — to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal processes
• Marketing — to send product updates and promotional content where you have opted in (you can unsubscribe at any time)

We process your personal data based on legitimate interest, contractual necessity, your consent, or legal obligation, depending on the specific purpose and context.

Free Email Database provides free access to publicly sourced business contact information. This section explains how we source, verify, and maintain the business data available through our platform.

Data sourcing: We collect B2B data exclusively from publicly available sources, including company websites, business directories, professional networking platforms, government registries, public filings, and other openly accessible business listings. We aggregate and process this information to build comprehensive business profiles.

Verification process: All data passes through our verification pipeline to ensure accuracy and quality. We verify email deliverability, validate phone numbers, confirm business details against multiple sources, and maintain a high accuracy rate. Records that fail verification are flagged or removed from the database.

B2B data only: Our database contains strictly business-to-business contact information. We do not collect or distribute personal consumer data. The information in our database pertains to individuals in their professional capacity, including business email addresses, company details, and professional roles.

Data freshness: We deliver new verified business leads across 50+ countries. Our pipeline continuously refreshes and re-verifies existing records to maintain data quality and remove outdated entries.

If you are a business professional whose information appears in our database and you wish to be removed, please reach out via our contact page. We process all removal requests promptly.

We do not sell your personal account information to third parties. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers — trusted third-party vendors who help us operate our platform (e.g., hosting, email delivery, analytics). These providers are contractually bound to protect your data and use it only for the services they provide to us.
• Legal requirements — when required by law, regulation, legal process, or enforceable governmental request
• Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, where your information may be transferred as a business asset
• Protection of rights — when necessary to enforce our Terms of Service, protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users or the public
• With your consent — when you explicitly authorize us to share your information with a specific third party

The B2B lead data available through our platform is provided to users under the terms outlined in our Terms of Service. Users are responsible for using the data in compliance with applicable laws.

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

• Account data — retained for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter to handle reactivation requests or legal obligations
• Usage and technical data — typically retained for up to 24 months for analytics and platform improvement purposes
• Communication data — support correspondence is retained for up to 36 months to provide consistent service
• B2B database records — continuously refreshed and re-verified; outdated or unverifiable records are removed from the active database

When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it. You may request earlier deletion of your personal data by contacting us, subject to any legal obligations requiring continued retention.

We take the security of your information seriously and implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect it against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

• Encryption of data in transit (TLS/SSL) and at rest
• Regular security assessments and vulnerability scanning
• Strict access controls and role-based permissions for our team
• Secure cloud infrastructure with reputable providers
• Incident response procedures to address potential breaches promptly
• Employee security training and confidentiality agreements

While no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, we continuously monitor and improve our security practices. If you believe your account security has been compromised, please contact us immediately via our contact page.
