Emailing Acrobat Froms with Auto-complete ON

I have a technical question regarding using the Auto-Complete function on Acrobat.
I fill in mutiple forms with mutilple pages prior to emailing them to clients. The information being filled in is personal information and should not be accessed by anyone other than the recepient. Having the Auto-Complete function turned on really shortens the time spent filling in the data. However, given that I email the PDF file to the client I have to ensure that they cannot see anyone elses personal data when they open the PFD to finish the form. When sending a form in which Auto-Complete is used, does any other infromation from the "Cache" go with the PDF or does it all reside in the "Cache" on the "C" drive?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 9.3.1, Windows

The data collected for the auto complete is only on your system.
