MODERATORS
Email alias indeed helps to avoid spam and helps you to assume separate identity per site, but won't help in any way to stop mail provider/server from processing your email data for user profiling / targeted ad purpose.
Buying email domain and self-hosting is only the full proof way from privacy POV, but it is really difficult target to accomplish. A privacy respecting email hosting + alias should be next ideal choice, IMO.
Check out YUNOhost. It's an open source operating system for servers which comes with email already set up. You can install it on a cheap VPS or home server and easily manage it graphically via web portal.
