Can the sender get any personal information about the recipient?

If I gave someone one of my verified paypal email addresses, and they sent me money, would they receive any kind of receipt that gives away my personal information? For example my full name and home address. Are there any circumstances in which the sender of money could go through some process that reveals any information other than the email address I gave them? Thank you

Hi @K_Smith,

 

Thank you for your question! I understand your caution. Your name and email address would be a matter of record in the transaction. Your address would potentially be provided if there were a dispute that necessitated the return of an item.

 

I hope this information helps!
