Managing “Notification Email”

I just found that a random email is listed as my “notification email” when i go to https://appleid.apple.com/. I try to remove the email address and nothing changes, and it tells me to go to settings > Apple ID, but there’s no notification email settings there. How do I remove the random email address?

iPhone X, iOS 14
