Hello, I have a personal account with PayPal. I sent an invoice to receive payment for a writing comission. My understanding was that the buyer should only be receiving my full name and email address. However, now I'm worried I've accidentally doxxed myself, because when I was paid from the invoice, I checked the PDF of the transaction/invoice, and it has my full address and phone number on the top right of the page. Does the buyer now have that information as well?

Hi @Dolphin43,
Welcome to the community and thank you for your post!
I do understand your concern. As you have a personal account, the only information the buyer will be able to see is your full name and email address.
If you have a business account, you can choose what information is displayed on your invoices. For more information, please click here.
I hope this helps!
