IP Address & Email Address

MyShadowLove — Mon, 02 Sep 2019 23:47:21 GMT

Hi Everyone...

I have a favor to ask...Could you please do a search on your nic (in the above "Search Forums & Blogs" space)...click on "Users"...then "Go"...

Are your IP Address and Email Address visible under your nic?

This is only for those who are logged on.

Thanks so much for checking!

@MyShadowLove

I did the search for my name, but all I saw was topics with my name in them. Where is the word "Users" that I'm supposed to click on?

ETA OK, I did it and yes, my email addy and IP addy are there. But I'm pretty sure they are just visible to me.

@Mom2Dogs , I think the OP is talking about the upper right hand corner. We are in the Community Forum(white rectangular box) so if you click on the arrow, and then click on USERS and then GO which is in red.

No IP address or Email address for others users to see, That would never happen.

@MyShadowLove, yes I can see my IP address and email address but not for anyone else.

Sage04 — Tue, 03 Sep 2019 00:28:30 GMT

Now I got it. I just saw mine. No one else can see it though

I checked your name wildflowers and no private info of yours came up.

@Sage04 put sage04 in white box and drop down community and select users.

@Mom2Dogs , I gave you the wrong directions. Below your Nick there is a search box, enter your nick, click on the down arrow which has Community, click on USERS and then hit Go.

@mizree , I realized that I did it wrong the first time lol

I hope @MyShadowLove doesn´t think that anyone can see hers.

Bri369 — Tue, 03 Sep 2019 00:21:39 GMT

I can see mine. I had no idea that was even there.

Re: IP Address & Email Address

Mom2Dogs — Tue, 03 Sep 2019 00:23:07 GMT

so how does the information get removed?

@MyShadowLove

I'm only able to see my own email address and IP.

Whew! thanks for explaining that and that we only see our own!

That would have been scary if all could!

Thank you everyone!...I logged off to get in touch with QVC and have them check if this was a security issue..I was told that they would have their IT Dept. check into it but it would take a while.

I never noticed this information being visible before?
