How Buddy protects
your inbox
We only fetch verification codes. Nothing else. Ever.
What Buddy accesses
Buddy is laser-focused on one job: fetching verification codes. That's it.
What we don't do
Your privacy is non-negotiable. Here's what Buddy never touches.
Built with privacy first
Every decision we make puts your privacy first
No Storage
Codes are extracted and emails are discarded immediately. Nothing is stored.
No Browsing
Buddy doesn't read your other emails. Only verification codes from streaming services.
You Control
Disconnect Gmail anytime in Settings. Your data, your control.
How we protect your data
Industry-standard security, so you can rest easy
Encrypted at rest
All data stored on our servers is encrypted using industry-standard encryption. Your information stays protected even when it’s sitting in our database.
Secure in transit
Every connection between your device and our servers uses encrypted channels (HTTPS). Your data stays private as it travels back and forth.
Protected credentials
Your Gmail connection is stored with encrypted tokens—we never see or store your password. You stay in control and can disconnect anytime.
