> [@warning Important Change: Hide User Emails is now default](https://community.glideapps.com/t/important-change-hide-user-emails-is-now-default/19025/10): > > Update: We’ve fixed the bug which caused Hide Emails setting to turn on automatically when editing your app. Hi @david, this bug appears to have returned around three days ago - can you please revisit? My app suddenly switched to anonymous emails and when I correct it to real emails it defaults back to the anonymous setting on page refresh. This switch to anonymous emails has sadly broken my entire app ☹ (I have updated my existing support ticket with this discovery but thought I’d mention it here as well) For reference: > [@Collect Real User Email Addresses - Doesn't work](https://community.glideapps.com/t/collect-real-user-email-addresses-doesnt-work/32525): > > Hi, I set the privacy section to collect real user email addresses, it worked a couple of times in the past, and then stopped working. It allows me to select the option, but once I refresh the page, it goes back to Hide User Email Addresses. Does anyone have the same issue? Thanks. After refreshing the page, or log out/in, it goes back to the original setting. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.glideapps.com/t/important-change-hide-user-emails-is-now-default/19025)._
