Today, we are making some relatively modest changes to the Shapeways Privacy Statement<\/a>.\u00a0 These changes are designed to make it even more explicit exactly which parts of your Shapeways profile will be publicly accessible.<\/p>\n

As you may already know, we have been working hard recently to make it even easier for community members to find each other on Shapeways. \u00a0If you have a Shapeways account, you’ve already seen emails about these changes and have been greeted with a notice about them when you log onto the site. \u00a0This post<\/a> gives a bit more background on the changes.<\/p>\n

While some community members have well known usernames that make them easy to find, we have received feedback from you that unless you know the exact Shapeways username it can be difficult to find, follow, and engage with community members you care about.\u00a0 In response, there are now more ways for you to search for users on the site.<\/p>\n

While our prior privacy statement covered that profile information, we strive to make sure that the statement is as clear as possible about what happens to information that you share with us and with the community.<\/p>\n

As such, the privacy statement<\/a>\u00a0now makes it explicit that your public profile can include things like your real name, an image, and a short biography in addition to your Shapeways username.\u00a0 For many of our users, that information will make it easier for friends and fans to find you.<\/p>\n

At the same time, we know that not everyone wants to share all of those things publicly.\u00a0 That is why the settings<\/a> on your profile page always allow you to select what types of information you want to make available publicly.<\/p>\n

If you are curious about the specific modifications of the statement, previous versions of the privacy statement are available in the privacy statement archives<\/a>.\u00a0 As always, if you have any questions or thoughts about the change, feel free to raise them in the comments below or to me directly on twitter at @MWeinberg2D<\/a> or via email at mweinberg@shapeways.com.<\/p>\n
