After reading this, if I understand correctly, when sending money to a

• Personal account: they see your name, avatar, and only if you've chosen to share it, your mailing address.

• Business account: they see your name, email, "if they need to contact you about your purchase" your phone number, and "if you bought something that needs to be mailed" your mailing address.

But it's not always very clear what is actually being shown to the user you're paying. For example I paid an invoice to someone with a Business account with my Personal account, and it doesn't explicitly show me anywhere if my name or the email tied to my Paypal was sent. It also doesn't clarify if my phone number was sent, and as for mailing address it does say "This purchase is a digital good and will not be shipped to an address." so I guess that means it didn't send my mailing address. Or did it?

I might just ask the person I paid what they see. But still, it baffles me that with Personal accounts there doesn't seem to be a way to obscure say your name, or any clear controls to easily determine whether or not you want to send your name, email, phone number or mailing address to someone.

I haven't used Paypal in years, and then only for sending money to other people. When I log on my address bar only reads paypal[dot]com/myaccount, with no identity attached. How do I send people the information they need to send money to ME?
