Hi Ali, I appreciate that you are including data in this repository in notebooks/datasets/Customer-Churn-Records.csv, to make the work completely reproducible! However, I notice your data includes people's names and possibly sensitive information such as their credit score and estimated earnings. I don't see a reference, so not sure if it's an open-source or simulated data set. Would be good to add a reference or remove identifying information from the dataset, if it's data on real people...

Hi Catalina, thank you for the feedback. This dataset is open source from Kaggle. I've added a paragraph to README mentioning the source of the dataset and the link to it's page on Kaggle website. Cheers!
