Roxxx Mail

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 21 July 2026
Roxxx Mail is a native email client for Mac, iPhone and iPad, made in Belgium as an independent project. The short version: your email and passwords stay on your device and travel only to the servers you choose. We don't run servers that read your mail, and there is no tracking, advertising or profiling.

Who we are

Roxxx Mail is built and operated by an individual developer in Belgium. For any privacy question you can reach us at [email protected].

What stays on your device

  • Your email. Messages are fetched from your own mail providers and cached locally on your device, so the app is fast and works offline. This cache never leaves your device except back to your own mail servers.
  • Your account credentials. Passwords and access tokens are kept in the operating system's Keychain — the secure store that macOS and iOS provide — and are used only to connect to your mail servers.

What is sent, and to whom

Roxxx Mail only communicates with services you configure or explicitly enable:

  • Your mail servers. The app connects to the IMAP/SMTP servers of the accounts you add (your own server, iCloud, Gmail, Outlook, …) to send and receive mail. Your credentials and messages go only to those providers, under their own privacy policies.
  • AI features — optional, and only with your own key. If you add your own Anthropic (Claude) API key, you can enable AI categorisation, phishing detection and reply suggestions. In that case, for categorisation and phishing checks only limited data — the sender, the subject and a short preview — is sent, never the full message; for an AI reply suggestion, the content of the message you are replying to is sent. This data goes directly from your device to Anthropic under your own API key and is handled according to Anthropic's privacy policy and API terms. These features are off unless you turn them on and require a key you provide.
  • iCloud — optional. If you turn on iCloud sync, your app settings sync through your private iCloud account, and your account passwords travel through iCloud Keychain, which Apple end-to-end encrypts. This is handled by Apple under Apple's privacy policy, and is off unless you enable it.
  • Settings sync through your own mailbox. Your rules, categories and preferences can be synced by storing them as a hidden message in your own mailbox. That data stays within your mail account.

What we don't do

  • No analytics, tracking or telemetry.
  • No advertising, and no profiling of you or your contacts.
  • No selling or sharing of your data with anyone.
  • The developer operates no server that receives your email or personal data. This website is a static page and collects nothing.

Privacy by default

Remote images and tracking pixels in messages are blocked by default, so senders can't silently learn when or where you open their mail. You can allow images per message or per sender.

Keeping and deleting your data

Because everything lives on your device, you are in control: removing the app deletes its local cache and stored settings from that device, and removing an account in the app deletes its local cache. Your mail on the server and your credentials in iCloud Keychain are managed by those providers and are not affected by deleting the app.

Children

Roxxx Mail is a general-purpose email client and is not directed at children.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new date.
