No. You have control over who can contact you, and your contact information is kept private. This is very important to us.

Use your member profile settings and the settings for any of your project profiles to set up the contact rules you prefer. (Find the settings link at the top of the profile page.)

When you receive a message, you can decide to accept or ignore it. The sender will not be able to send you another message until you accept the thread. You can also block a sender.

In addition, we enforce introduction and tracking limits to ensure members cannot flood the system with an excessive amount of unsolicited messages.
