Sim Card in Germany

I am thinking about purchasing a sim card, not a e-sim) I will be in Germany for 3 weeks. I just need data, but I am under the impression that a phone number will still be provided, even though I have no use for it. I am looking for recommendations for a mobile company to purchase it from. Thanks.

Thanks for the information, I will take a look. I am looking for a private network, as I may want to use my credit card for payment and I don't trust the public wifi areas, whether in a hotel, shopping mall etc.

I have not used them, but BNEsim will sell either SIM or Esim. They cover some 68 countries, including Germany. Data for Germany is 1.49 Euros/Gb. for a Germany data plan, or 2.09/Gb for a non-expiring dataplan (you give them some money and can keep using the service until the money is gone.). They do not include a phone number. They say they use VODAFONE, O2, and E-PLUS networks.
