The Thorx policy is: share ideas.
Do not contribute unless you are comfortable with others reading your ideas.
Most people do not make a distinction between personal information (about you), and private information (to be kept secret). Thorx does, but doesn't consider them congruent. They overlap, but they also exist seperately to each other. See the chart below for how personal and private information tallies up.
If it helps, substitute 'individual' for 'personal'.
| Impersonal | Personal / Individual | |
