Privacy Policy for Recipient Finder

Last Updated: October 10, 2025

Effective Date: October 10, 2025

1. What We Do

Recipient Finder helps you quickly find email recipients by indexing sender information from your inbox. Think of it as a fast search tool for ”who has emailed me?”

2. What Data We Access and Store

2.1 Contact Index (Stored Locally Only)

What we read from your mailbox:

• Email addresses from the ”From” field
• Display names (e.g., ”John Smith”)
• Timestamps (when the email was received)

Where it’s stored:

• ✅ On your device only (browser’s local storage)
• ❌ Never sent to our servers
• ❌ Never uploaded to the cloud

Data Type	We Access	We Store Locally	Sent to Servers
Sender email addresses	Yes	Yes	No
Sender display names	Yes	Yes	No
Email timestamps	Yes	Yes	No
Email subjects	No	No	No
Email body content	No	No	No
Attachments	No	No	No

2.2 Authentication

What we collect:

• Your Microsoft account email address
• Basic profile information (name, photo)
• Authentication tokens (issued by Microsoft, stored temporarily)

Why: To securely authenticate you with Microsoft Graph API.

Storage: Tokens stored in your browser session, expire automatically.

Note: We never see your password—authentication is handled by Microsoft.

2.3 License Information (Sent to Our Server)

What we send to our backend:

• Your Microsoft account ID (unique identifier, not your email)
• Trial activation and expiration dates
• License status (trial/active/expired)

Why: To manage your 30-day trial and subscription.

Storage: Microsoft Azure servers (EU-West region).

Retention: 90 days after subscription ends.

3. Microsoft Graph Permissions

When you sign in, you’ll be asked to approve these permissions:

Permission	What It Does
Mail.Read	Read sender information from your mailbox
User.Read	Read your basic profile (name, email)
openid, profile, email	Standard sign-in with Microsoft
offline_access	Keep you signed in between sessions

Important: All permissions are ”Delegated”—the add-in only works when you’re signed in. We have no background access to your mailbox.

4. How We Protect Your Data

Local Data (Contact Index)

• Stored in your browser’s secure storage
• Protected by your device’s security (OS encryption, account protection)
• Never transmitted over the internet
