So... Information that is already known to you is stored on your computer.
You have a problem with this why?

Because other people can see it? Are you serious?

Wow, this information is transmitted in plain text over the internet...?

What could possibly go wrong.

Who do you think is gunning for your keys? Did you steal Annonymous' girl scout cookies?

Those things are really damn good.....

I doubt it's transmitted in the clear... likely TLS encrypted. If that's the case people are just whining about nothing.

I just went to the folder in question and looked through the (three) files I had there. The only thing in them was this:

{
    "Description" : {
        "Cost" : 0,
        "Rarity" : 0,
        "Purchasable" : false,
        "Manufacturer" : "",
        "Model" : "",
        "UIName" : "",
        "Id" : "customHeraldry_stjobe",
        "Name" : "stjobe",
        "Details" : "",
        "Icon" : ""
    },
    "textureLogoID" : "envTxrHrld_startGladiator",
    "primaryMechColorID" : "Greyscale_05",
    "secondaryMechColorID" : "Metallic_Copper",
    "tertiaryMechColorID" : "Greyscale_01"
}

Not exactly bank account data.

I dont get the problem here. It shows an email (no big deal), an redeemed code (again no big deal) and how much you backed. Much ado about nothing really. Now put your big boy pants back on.

On your computer!?
You've got bigger issues...

Again - as long as this is encrypted when sent over the Internet there is no issue (I haven't had a chance to check... but I'd be shocked if it's not all TLS)
