Tracking tool privacy issue

Please remove the ability to see name and email id of the users in your visa tracking feature. It is a loss of privacy as well as treasure for potential spammers.

Manish,

Thanks for pointing that out to us.

We will work on it on a priority basis.

Pending the fix, I've removed my entries from the tracker.

I am not sure why it would be a treasure for spammers.

Your email ids are safe from automated robots that visit the websites and try to harvest email ids. They are displayed in such a format that no automated program can grab it.

If some human being looks at it, and tries to send you an email, that is different matter.

Also, we looked many websites that allow you to see the user profile etc, they are quite similar to what we are displaying. Therefore, it looks like it is kind of industry standard.
