Privacy & Data Handling for Gmail Dot Variation Generator

Data Processing
All email addresses are processed temporarily on our server using PHP to generate dot variations. We never store, log, or transmit your email address to any third party. Once processing is complete, the data is discarded immediately.

No Tracking
We do not use cookies, local storage, or any tracking mechanisms. Your activity on this tool remains completely private.

Transparency
Our code is open source and fully available for inspection. We believe in complete transparency about how your data is handled and ensure that your privacy is never compromised.

How to use the tool (step-by-step, no technical skills required)

1. Open the tool page on your browser. The interface is minimal and designed to be easy to use on desktop or mobile.
2. Type your Gmail address into the single input box. Use the address you normally receive mail at (for example: yourname@gmail.com).
3. Click Generate. The tool will validate your input and instantly show the total number of dot-variations possible for that username.
4. View results:
   
   • You will see a clear count of all possible variations (calculated using math so it’s fast even for long usernames).
   • For convenience and performance, the tool may show a limited preview list of variations and offer ways to copy or export them.
5. Search and filter through the displayed list to find particular patterns or shorter variations.
6. Copy or export: Use Copy All to copy the current list to your clipboard, or use Export to save the variations as a text file or CSV for later use.
7. Switch themes: Toggle between Light and Dark mode if you prefer a different visual style. Your choice is remembered for next time.

That’s all — no coding, setup, or account needed. The tool checks your input and gives you usable output instantly.

Key features (what makes this tool helpful)

• Instant math-based counts: Instead of generating every possible email when the number would be huge, the tool computes how many unique dot-variations exist. This is fast and efficient for long usernames.
• Safe previews with limits: To keep things usable and avoid huge downloads, the tool provides a preview or a capped list while still telling you the true total count.
• Search, sort, and paginate: Easily find the variations that matter — for example, short-looking versions or ones with dots in particular spots.
• Copy & export: One-click options to copy the whole visible list or export it as a .txt or .csv file for spreadsheets, signups, or record-keeping.
• Friendly UX: A clean, minimal interface with keyboard accessibility and theme choice so it works for everyone.

Benefits — why this is useful for you

• Organize signups and track sources. Use different dot-variations when signing up on multiple sites to identify which site shares or sells your email. When you receive an email on a particular variation, you know where it likely originated.
• Email management without multiple accounts. Instead of making many separate Gmail accounts, you can visually separate contexts (work, shopping, newsletters) while keeping all mail in one inbox.
• Testing forms and signup systems. Developers or site owners can test how registration systems handle email input. You can quickly check if a service treats dotted variations as the same account or as distinct.
• Privacy and careful sharing. Give different variations to different contacts or services to track where spam or leaks come from, without creating new mailboxes.
• Avoid account collisions. If a website treats dotted addresses as unique, you may be able to reserve visually different usernames during signups (while still controlling the inbox).

Practical examples

• Sign up for a newsletter at n.e.w.s@gmail.com and an online shop at news@gmail.com (both go to the same inbox). If spam comes to one variation, you’ll know which source leaked your address.
• Share firstname.lastname@gmail.com for professional use and f.irstname.lastname@gmail.com for online stores — both land in your inbox, but visually they indicate different contexts.

Safety, ethics, and best practices

• Respect terms of service. Don’t use dotted variations to impersonate, bypass site rules, or create fraudulent accounts.
• Avoid abuse. The tool limits how many variations it displays to prevent misuse and protect server performance.
• Protect privacy. Don’t publish or share other people’s variations without permission. Use this tool responsibly to manage your own email.
• Check legal/regulatory concerns. Some services may forbid multiple registrations for one person; always follow the rules where you register.

Tips to get the most out of it

• Use the search/filter feature to find variations that look clean and readable for real-world use.
• Export variations as .csv if you want to keep a record in a spreadsheet for tracking.
• Use short, memorable dotted patterns when sharing an email publicly (e.g., on business cards or classified ads) to reduce mistakes.
