storing numbers from texts

we had alltel before they changet to verizon, and they did not keep a list of the numbers that you texted or vice versa..even on the online bill.  why does verizon do this?  i think these are a lot more private than phone numbers that you call.  i was trying to set up a suprise birthday party for my boyfriend and did not realize they stored these on the online bill and he found them and it ruined the party!  i purposly did not call everyone so that it would not (or so i though) show up either on the bill or online.  i really think verizon should review their policy of keeping a list of text numbers.  is there a way to opt out of that online service?  thanks

If you do not want to have your bill details online, you do have the option of removing your online account. During the registration process the terms and conditions had to be accepted for online billing. HTH!

I am glad we have the option to do this and would not a like a service that didn't do this as sometimes I need to go back and check a number I texted or something.    As said delete your online account if you don't want anyone to have access.  Mary
