PFSACG private information leakage


Website Feedback


Hi web people at Paizo,

If your register a PFSACG character, it registers the profile under your real name. I believe this is potentially a PII leakage and lead to a privacy issue down the line. I can go to anybody's page and if they've created a PFSACG character, I would know their real name (unless they faked their name in their profile).

Am I mistaken in that this might be very problematic?

Hey Zeroth_hour,

It was set up that way because you can't "name" an ACG character; but yes it could display a real name unexpectedly. I'll pipe the issue to the ACG team and let them think on how they want to manage it.

Thanks!

We are on it like a sonnet. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.
