Hi John,

Is it really that much different from a form where there are required and optional fields? Do you think it could be handled in a similar way as one would handle color categorized information? Indicate it with asterisk? * = Required to remain private information, or some variation like that? Maybe an asterisk could be confusing but how about something like square brackets around info that needs to stay confidential?

I imagine this type of issue will become more prevalent and I am glad your asking this group about ideas on the subject.

Best regards,
Cath
