Look Under The Hood: (edit)
- When a user requests to generate an email alias, a popup would appear (similar to "Sign In With Apple") prompting the user to sign in with Privacy Portal in order to authorize generating and filling the email alias.
- As mentioned in the library's Github page, an account is required in order for Privacy Portal to be able to forward emails to your personal email address.
- Privacy Portal has a transparent and fair business model that allows small creators and businesses to use our services free of charge under a certain usage threshold.
- Privacy Portal is built for privacy and processes all emails in memory without writing them to disk. It does not store, collect, share, nor sell any user data. Privacy Policy
- Users can sign up on Privacy Portal with an anonymous email address for even more privacy.
- Email Aliases generated for a particular website can only relay emails authorized by said website and are unusable by other third parties making it a perfect solution for eliminating spam, and email sharing accross websites.
When a visitor requests to generate an Email Alias using Hide-My-Email or Subscribe-Anonymously, a popup will appear with an OAuth Authentication page using the Privacy Portal OAuth provider. Once authenticated, the email alias will be filled in the email input in the case of Hide-My-Email or the user would get automatically subscribed to the newsletter using an alias in the case of Subscribe-Anonymously.
If the user already has a Privacy Portal account, they just need to sign in otherwise they would need to register a free account.
