Description

URL of affected page:
CTemplar.com

This provider is known for deactivating randomly accounts based on activity. It’s anything but trusted. Besides the apps won’t work and you got continually errors. Sad to see this provider mentioned on PrivacyGuides.

Also they suffered a data loss earlier this year. I am not for or against CTemplar, but this is another thing to factor in

This was already taken into consideration as seen here.

From what I can understand CTemplar deletes free accounts that haven't logged in in 36 months.

This is a huge security vulnerability, no email account should ever be given out again. Imagine what can happen with accounts still linked up to old mail addressees of people who do not keep track of this. This is really really stupid.
