EMAIL GLOSSARY

What is a burner email?

A burner email is an email address that you can set up if you don’t want to share your personal details with a business that requires an email address to access.

For example, if you wanted to buy a product from a website which needed an email address, but were concerned they may use your email to send marketing spam, you could use a burner email to buy the product to save your normal inbox from receiving junk mail.
