> It’s important to note that you shouldn’t use Hide My Email for everything. For example, you probably don’t want to use a random address for critical services such as online banking. If you trust the bank with your money, you can probably trust them with your email. I’d also think through those sites that may use your email to help others find you, such as social media accounts. If you’d like your contacts to find you automatically, you’ll need to use an email they know of. Social media is high on the list of use cases for such addresses to help preserve one's privacy.
