With regards to private user data, such as IP addresses: Private information requires a subpoena or court order In accordance with our Privacy Policy <https://twitter.com/privacy> and Terms of Service <https://twitter.com/tos>, non-public information about Twitter users is not released unless we have received a subpoena, court order, or other valid legal process document. Some information we store is automatically collected, while other information is provided at the user’s discretion. Though we do store this information, it may not be accurate if the user has created a fake or anonymous profile. Twitter doesn’t require email verification or identity authentication.
