 * Hi,
 * I see the plugin requests users enter their full name, email, and phone number
   to get their home’s value.
 * Is it possible to only collect the address entered and not the personal information?
 * Is there a setting or change in the code we can make that changes the default
   behavior?
 * Thank you.

 * Hi Michael,
 * In the plugin settings, you can toggle whether or not the first name, last name,
   or phone number are required for form submission. You cannot disable the requirement
   of an email address being entered.
 * So to answer your question, you cannot eliminate the collection of personal data
   altogether, but there is some flexibility as to what is required.

 * Ok. Thank you. Just to be clear though… does the plugin collect the address entered
   and email that back to you?
 * Thank you!

 * Hi Michael,
 * We have no systems/processes in place to collect the addresses, or any of the
   entered information, from users of this plugin. We can of course see queries 
   being made to our server for property data, but we only review those logs when
   an issue comes up.
 * I hope this answers your question, but feel free to reach out to us at [support@8blocks.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/data-collection-2/support@8blocks.com?output_format=md)
   if you’d like to speak with someone in more detail!

 * Hello again,
 * So, I’m looking specifically for a home valuation app that will allow the user
   to submit an address with no other information required on their part.
 * Any chance of you doing a customization and if so, how much?
 * Or, can you or anyone else reading this recommend another WordPress app?
 * Thank you.

 * Hi Michael,
 * Unfortunately that is not something we can offer at this time. If that becomes
   an option in the future we will certainly update you. That being said, if you’re
   not looking to collect any lead data whatsoever then you may just want to iframe
   in Zillow’s home value tool as it won’t cost you a dime and it requires no further
   info from the user:
    [https://www.zillow.com/how-much-is-my-home-worth/](https://www.zillow.com/how-much-is-my-home-worth/)
 * Hope that helps!
