Is my personal address and phone number now required to be listed in the public store listing?

I just received and email "Notice of Developer Requirements" with this section:

Updating Your Contact Information
Microsoft requires that you enter your contact information: email, physical address, and phone number. This information is required and will be made available under the Publisher Information section on product detail pages.

I am a single developer who just works from home, I would never want my home phone number and address listed on the public store page. Am I misunderstanding this or are there any exceptions? This policy seems a bit out of touch and perhaps there is no alternative except to delete my apps
