- What is Clear My Spam?
- Clear My Spam helps you declutter your Gmail inbox by bulk deleting, unsubscribing from, and organizing your emails in seconds.
- What happens to my email data?
- Clear My Spam does not store any email data and will never sell anyone's personal information. Emails are temporarily cached during your browsing session and are never sent to or processed by third parties.
- Why can I trust Clear My Spam?
-
Clear My Spam is open source and available on GitHub, allowing anyone to review or audit the code. If you're not a developer, you can trust the experts who have vetted it. Your emails are never stored or shared, so you can rest assured that your data is safe.
- Why wouldn't I just use Gmail's built-in filters?
- You absolutely can! Gmail filters are powerful, but can take a lot of time to set up and configure. Clear My Spam is intentionally designed to reduce complexity and simplify the process of clearing out your inbox. Give it a try and you'll see what I mean!
- What email providers do you support?
- At this time, Clear My Spam only supports Gmail and Google Workspace accounts. If you have a request, send it our way!
- How does this work?
-
Clear My Spam uses Google's public Gmail API to fetch, organize, and delete emails.
- Who is behind Clear My Spam?

Hi, nice to meet you! Clear My Spam is solely maintained and developed by me (Jonathan Chen), a software engineer with self-diagnosed "digital OCD". I've loved building this project and hope you find it useful!
