It might be useful to make these details *available*, somewhere  
behind a "My Account" link, for example, but I wouldn't display them  
by default. And I'd probably only make them available if there's a  
serious concern among your users about their accounts being hijacked.

How closely is an artist's reputation tied to their profile on the  
site? Is the site storing any sensitive personal details, like a  
street address, or financial info?
