Therefore, you should not submit information that you consider confidential. We maintain the privacy of your email address submitted to us in your profile in the event that such a profile was not made public by you (and unless you enter such information as your username or in the text of your entries to user areas), but other information you provide should be considered nonconfidential and available for viewing by others.
