Comment (by dd32):

 Storing IPs isn't ideal at all, and ideally we'd like to be able to move
 away from it I think. Storing other derived data-points instead (ie. only
 a anonymised IP `123.123.123.0` or the Network ASN instead perhaps)

 However, that being said, for GDPR purposes if it's a required
 functionality of the directory for the purposes of anti-spam as long as
 it's disclosed I think that's fine.
