I would like to see an optional birthday field in our profiles. It adds warmth to our interactions with each other should we choose to use it.

Does my Steam birthday of 1/1/1901 count?

We are compliant with the EU GDPR law so we donโt capture any more personal data than absolutely necessary to do business. I will miss sending out birthday greetings.

Ok, that is understandable. We are a large enough group of people that perhaps some knowledge should not be open to all.
I was really hoping for a simple date (no year), so some people can remain forever 21 :cough: @Alphea :cough: or 117 and counting (@malk0lm) lol.

It would be too much work, but Iโd love something meaningless.

You can use the About Me field in your user profile to reveal (or make up) whatever you want about yourselves.

Is having a โlocationโ field in the profile also in compliance with EU GDPR?
Just curious ๐

Since we donโt require it and you freely provide it and can remove it easily then yes, but I see your point.

We also have the option to completely anonymize anyone who requests it.

The site does not currently have a field for capturing birthday. You can include that in your bio if you so choose.
