You can set the tracks to Public or Private In the FAQ I found this
*What do the track statuses Private/Public mean and what do I need them for? * All tracks recorded online are saved on the server and are available for review and management on www.gpsed.com <http://gpsed.com/>. When you start a Public track you automatically agree to share it with other users. The more often you upload your positioning data to the server the more actual is your position on a map for other users. If you do not want to share your track with others please change it to Private. would this qualify as public domain?
