Be aware, however, that some financial institutions and other entities use date of birth as a pseudo-secret identifier, much like mother's maiden name. I'm not aware of anyone using it as a primary means of authentication, but they may use it when you request a reset of a forgotten password, for example. Obviously your birthdate isn't really secret, but you may want to consider this before posting it on a website.
