What is a temporary email address?
A temporary email address is an email address intended to be used for a limited period or a specific purpose. It provides an alternative to handing over your everyday email address whenever a website asks for an email.
Vanish is designed to make that process simple: generate an address, use it to receive the message you need, and avoid adding another permanent mailbox to manage.

Use permanent email for important accounts
Temporary email is not a replacement for an email address you need to retain. Use a permanent account for banking, healthcare, important personal accounts and account recovery.
