Hi @WendyEM - your phone number and email are handled as sensitive, personal information and are not shared with other users or moderators.
As the platform has grown and grown, we now have all kinds of people using NatureMapr for different reasons: users, customers, stakeholders, school children, professionals etc and we are responsible for safeguarding their personal information appropriately.
The optional phone number field exists for the purpose of including it with formal, verified biodiversity records that are shared with decision makers to increase the overall veracity of the record.
Phone number also provides decision makers (E.g. ACT Government, NSW Government) with the option to get in touch with a record's original author should they be interested in asking you any further questions about an important or ecologically significant record.
