+given a random name that's guaranteed to be unique within a given Docker host.
+Just like named volumes, anonymous volumes persist even if you remove the
+container that uses them, except if you use the `--rm` flag when creating the

+created with the `--rm` flag. See [Remove anonymous
+volumes](volumes.md#remove-anonymous-volumes).
 
 Volumes also support the use of volume drivers, which allow you to store
 your data on remote hosts or cloud providers, among other possibilities.
