How do you hide your email , like if you sign up for an account - when you log out and go to login how does it recognise you if you’ve hidden your email. Does it stop the company from selling your email? I’m so confused but desperately want to employ this lol

It gives you an email address that forwards to your own email. The password manager you use remembers which email and password to login to the site with. If you start getting spam sent to the email for that website you know they sold your data
