Hello! There are numerous unverified temporary phone number services available (for activation codes when setting up new accounts online) which might collect user data. However, it seems that the privacy-focused community is lacking similar services for Europe created by respected privacy-focused companies, such as Mullvad. While there is the Cloaked app, it is currently only available in the United States.
