You may have heard that Sony's Play Station website was "hacked" recently and that passwords, among other things, had been revealed. Even credit card information may have been compromised. Apparently, Sony kept this information "in the clear" rather than encrypted. This is unpardonable, if true. For your information, The Daily Recap's passwords are encrpyted, and nobody, not even me, can read them. And we deliberately don't carry any real private information, such as street address, at all. We carry phone number, but it's at your option to provide it. To change your password, or to remove any personal information, except your name, click on Edit My Profile which appears under your picture when you log in.
There's a lesson here: don't trust anybody with sensitive personal information and do not use the same password for multiple sites. At least be sure your most important sites, like banks, use unique passwords. Regarding credit cards, some people use a separate card for online purchases and keep it's credit line as low as possible. Hackers had attempted to penetrate The Daily Recap a year ago or so, but they were thwarted. Even so, I removed the online registration process for the protection of your privacy. There can be no guarantees that a site is invulnerable, but you can rest assured that protecting your information is very important to me.
