• How much time do I need to wait before receiving the contact details of other users?

The time it takes to receive the contact details of other users can vary significantly depending on several factors, including:

• Your location: Processing times may differ based on your geographical region.
• Your preferences: The type of contact information you're requesting can also impact the time to wait.

We strive to provide you with the information you need as quickly as possible. However, we can't provide an exact timeframe for receiving contact details.

• How can I maximize my privacy and security online while using the service?

To maximize your privacy while using our service, consider the following best practices:

• Use secure and private accounts: Refrain from using public computers or shared devices to access your accounts.

By following these best practices and taking advantage of our service's built-in features, you can help maximize your privacy while using our service.

• Can I avoid to share my email with other users?

Yes, you can, if you remove the corresponding line from the text module before sending it. However, keep in mind that you could lose important opportunities, in the event that there is a match, but both parties have refused to share their email addresses. In contrast, we suggest to create a new separate email address or use an alias specifically selected for this service.

• How many countries and cities can I select as my preferences?

You can select up to two countries and up to two cities. Additional selections are ignored.

• I haven't received any contact details. What are my next steps?

If you waited a significant amount of time, you can try to submit your module again. Your updated preferences will overwrite the previously specified ones.

• What is the difference between the fml.shrt.site website and securemail.shrt.site?

The fml.shrt.site website is the original project, while securemail.shrt.site is an "incognito version" for those who prefer it. There is no other difference, the two websites are identical, with the exception of the name and the domain name. They are currently the only two legitimate fml services operating in the Western World. If you come across any unauthorized duplicates of our website, please notify us. However, keep in mind that we are considering the possibility to open-source our website in the future.

• Why should I trust you?

You shouldn't trust us automatically or any website, for that matter. Trust must be earned, and in today's digital landscape, it's a challenging problem. With so many breaches of trust and data mishaps, it's natural to be skeptical. However, we're committed to transparency and security, and we want to assure you that we take your privacy seriously. From a technical standpoint, we don't collect or store any personally identifiable information that would allow us to identify our users or access their interactions. Our platform is designed to be secure and private, and we don't utilize any tracking technologies that could compromise your anonymity. This approach demonstrates our genuine commitment to protecting your privacy. You can review our detailed security and privacy policies on our website to learn more about how we safeguard your data and ensure a secure experience.
