Pretty much garbage information such as an old email address or phone number that you don't use anymore that you would give someone or some organization to get a perk or benefit of some sort , such as a gas card to get a few cents of of each gallon of gas or maybe one of the big box stores to get a percentage of a purchase etc...
(Person #1) I just got 25 cents off a gallon of gas just for signing up for a gas card at the new gas station up the street . (Person #2) Yes I saw the sign that they had up last week for the discount if you were to sign up but I am sick of giving my email address and phone number out to every company that wants it just so that they will toss me a few crumbs. (Person #1) Oh no my man I just give them some "Burner Info" . (Person #2) Burner Info - What's that ? (Person #1) Old personal information that I no longer use for anything but to get a discount or deal on something , Like the way that the dealers used to use the cell phones to transact certain business back in the day , They would buy a brand phone and use it for a few times then toss it in the river , They called them "Burner Phones" That's why I call this "Burner Info" - It's old valid info but a dead end as far as getting in contact with me.
