We have had protection on the IWay projects for a while.I have just accidently deleted it.
So, before I put it back on, can we review what it is there for, as so far
it seems only to be a frustration to people who regularly use the site.The aims of privacy can be mayfold, but off the top of my head:
- to allow you to speak freely
Well, we do, by email if we need privacy
- to hide information from clients
Well, why shouldn't they see whats going on
- to hide the cost/profit from customers
Well, visibility of costs is one of the Unique Selling Points of panerisThe password that we had did not stop surfers from following through to invoices.
We need to assess what security we want, and why,
otherwise I feel that we should not have any.
