What this tool does
Mailrecord is a diagnostic tool that reads published DNS records (MX, SPF, DMARC, DKIM) for a domain name you type and displays them in plain language. Each lookup is independent and stateless — the tool does not store, log, or retain the domain you search or the results returned.
Data collection
Mailrecord collects no personal data. Specifically:
- The domain you type is sent to the server to perform the DNS lookup. The server does not log or store this domain.
- No account is required. No sign-up form exists. No user profiles are created.
- No cookies are set. No local storage is used for tracking.
- No analytics, tracking scripts, or third-party services are embedded in this site.
- The site loads fonts from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com). Google's privacy policy applies to that request. No other external resources are loaded.
DNS lookup data
When you perform a lookup, the domain name is sent to the server and forwarded to a public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver (Cloudflare's cloudflare-dns.com) to retrieve the DNS records. The DNS provider may log the query in accordance with its own privacy policy. The domain name is not stored, logged, or associated with any identifier on the Mailrecord server.
No email, no accounts, no notifications
Mailrecord does not send email, does not offer notifications or alerts, does not store lookup history, and does not support user accounts. There is no way for the service to contact you, and there is no way for you to subscribe to updates.
Data retention
No data is retained. The service is stateless — each HTTP request is handled independently with no persistence layer.
Third-party services
The following third-party services are used:
- Google Fonts — used to load the typefaces DM Serif Display, Source Sans 3, and IBM Plex Mono. Google's privacy policy governs the data collected by this request.
- Cloudflare DNS — used as the DNS-over-HTTPS resolver for lookups. Cloudflare's privacy policy governs the query data.
- Cloudflare (hosting) — the site and API are hosted on Cloudflare's network. Cloudflare's privacy policy applies to network-level data (IP addresses, request metadata).
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will be revised. No other notification will be sent because there is no mechanism to send one.
