[SOLVED] Why do donations require personal information?

[Clyde]

Hi,

the donations page asks for personal information "to personalize your account experience." What exactly is my account experience and why would either of us want to personalize it?

I'm asking because I only give personal information with good reasons, and your Privacy Policy only mentions cookies.

Thanks for any enlightenment in this matter.

@clyde you only need a first name and email. It uses it for confirmation email and a record in the database for reference.

Wording is just default for the plugin as it can have an option to login etc, which we don't use. Not sure if I can change it from the interface.

@buzz Thanks for the clarification, the wording struck me as a little odd for this site. Off to the donation page, then! o/

edit: And yeah, I see that by using PayPal, the question of privacy is a bit mood. ;)
