All my accounts are fake, used on a dedicated system segregated from the network.
If you're actually "logged Into your Gmail account" (and not actively viewing It), Google can track your online navigation. Always logout when not In use.
Not even. I'd avoid it altogether and use hotmail. Microsoft has always had a better track record than Google with respect to privacy. However, with the release of Windows 10 this reputation is becoming tainted.
Being anonymized without any Identifiable details, Is as good as It gets.
That aside, Microsoft deletes & recycles Inactive accounts, so be sure to periodically log In.
