Ye can't spell privacy without P-I-R-A-C-Y.
True, most pirates can't spell at all. Still, ye can rest assured in yer berth that the Brotherhood be respectin' yer privacy and would never reveal yer personal information, even under threat of physical torture--or, worse, deprivation of rum. The Pirate Government be guardin' yer identity and yer e-mail address and whatnot as if it were treasure. We be buryin' it deep in our electronic hideaway, secure from the pryin' eyes of them what might wish to offer ye things ye don't need, like a mortgage on yer ship, or herbal potions to make yer mainmast stand up straighter. The Brotherhood only be usin' what you gives us to send you the periodical message in the proverbial bottle.
After we empty the bottle of rum, that be.
