Email Privacy

Encode your email address into a bot-resistant format before publishing it on your website — keeps it readable to humans, unreadable to most scraper bots.

100% Free Runs In Your Browser Nothing Sent To Our Server
Protect Your Email Address
Please enter a valid email address (e.g. [email protected]).
HTML Entity Encoding
Replaces every character with its decimal HTML entity code. Renders correctly for human visitors; most simple scrapers only match plain-text email patterns and skip this.
JavaScript Obfuscation (mailto link)
Assembles a clickable mailto: link at page-load time via JavaScript. Bots that only parse static HTML never see a plain-text address at all.
"At / Dot" Text Format
A simple human-readable substitution for casual use (forum posts, comments) where HTML/JS isn't an option. Weakest protection of the three — easily defeated by a targeted scraper.

About Email Privacy

What Is Email Privacy Protection?

This tool obfuscates an email address on a webpage — converting it into a format that's readable to human visitors but harder for automated bots to scrape and add to spam lists, without hiding your contact information from real visitors.

How to Use This Tool

  • Enter the email address you want to protect
  • Click Generate
  • Copy the generated protected HTML code into your page

Key Features

  • Bot-resistant obfuscation — harder for scrapers to harvest
  • Still fully readable and clickable for real visitors

Who Uses This Tool

Site owners publishing a contact email who want to reduce spam harvesting. Developers adding a contact page without exposing a plain-text email address in the HTML source.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this guarantee zero spam?
No — it reduces casual automated scraping significantly, but no obfuscation method is 100% bot-proof against a sufficiently determined scraper.

Is this tool free?
Yes, protecting your email address is completely free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does encoding my email actually stop spam?
It significantly reduces harvesting by automated bots that scan raw HTML for plain-text email patterns. It won't stop a human manually copying your address, or a sophisticated scraper that executes JavaScript — but those are a small minority of harvesters.
Which method should I use?
Use the JavaScript mailto link if you control the page's HTML/JS and want a clickable link. Use HTML entity encoding if you just need the address to display as text. Use the "at/dot" format only for plain-text contexts like forum posts where markup isn't allowed.
Is my email address sent to your server?
No. All encoding happens directly in your browser with JavaScript — the address you type is never transmitted anywhere.
Will this break my email link for real visitors?
No. All three formats are designed to render normally (or execute normally, for the JS version) in every modern browser — the protection is invisible to human visitors.
What's the most effective way to hide an email from spam bots?
A contact form that never displays the raw address anywhere in the HTML is the strongest option. If you must display an address, the JavaScript mailto method is the strongest of the three formats offered here.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes, completely free with no signup, no limits and no software to install.
