This is a simple question with I'm sure a simple answer that I've yet to try to find out until now and figured the PayPal community forums would be the best place to ask. When I send money, will gifting the money to a certain address hide my personal information such as my name and address? PayPal doesn't allow you to retroactively change your name or at least change it to initials. I know that you can send payment through the payment of goods or through a gift transaction, which essentially this pending transaction shall be (a donation or gift type of payment). Any help elucidating whether or not my personal information will or can be hidden through any of the available payment options is greatly appreciated, thank you.
