Privacy of members is of great concern to us. I wanted to go over the privacy implications of PM logs in ZB Premium. Firstly, to reduce the risk of abuse of the feature, it is an exclusive feature of ZB Premium. Since the early days of InvisionFree and the beginning of ZetaBoards there have been infrequent but steady requests for PM logs. We have traditionally taken the side of those who wanted privacy in the PM system. We now feel that we have built a PM logging system and accompanying features that gives the board owner a proper level of optional control over the board and yet enhances privacy. 1. PM logging must be enabled in the Admin CP. Only messages sent when logging is enabled can be read by an admin. This prevents an admin from leaving logging off and then turning it on to read messages sent in the past. While logging is enabled, a warning message is displayed on the compose PM screen ("Any messages sent through this form will be logged. Do not include any private information, financial information, or passwords in any message sent through this form."). 2. We will be soon releasing a new PM privacy feature that will let members make sure their messages are not read without their knowledge. This system will protect messages even if an admin changes the member's password and logs in as that member. |
