I just tried to download a CSV file.
The CSV file does not contain any buyer information at all. No name,
nothing, just transaction IDs and amounts.

Even your online google-checkout sales panel only shows name, city,
zip-code, state, country and some sort of encrypted e-mail address.
No phone-number, no e-mail address, no full address.
