Information Collected & Privacy Settings
In the Site's user registration process, we collect your first and last name, email address, postal address and telephone number. We never make your email address publicly viewable, but you may choose to do so within your user bio or on other areas of the Site at your own risk. By default, your name, telephone number and address are hidden from other registered members in the Site's directory section. By logging in and accessing the "user settings" link on your user profile page, you may choose to publish your first and last name, address and telephone number. If you choose to share any of your personal information, this data will only be viewable by fully registered users that are actively logged into the Site. Although your personal information may be hidden from all of the Site's registered users, it will not be hidden from neighbortree.com. Additionally, you cannot hide your username, and if you choose to upload an avatar or add user profile background information (i.e. "bio"), you cannot hide this information; however, your username, avatar and/or bio are not required to contain personally-identifiable data. Further, all registered members have the ability to make anonymous posts only on their neighborhood neighbortree Site. Making an anonymous post hides all author information from all of the Site's registered users, but not from neighbortree.com.
