Then it's not worst since you already mentioned what is the advantage of using an exchange which is not possible on a quick response when dealing with peer to peer transaction with other people.

As long as the exchange is a registered company, I don't mind giving my personal info since it's a important thing and can be a good help when there is fraud happening or any thing related to that that involves your account. Not an assurance though that everything will be fine but it's not wrong to consider that feature.

If you actually believe that your information's are not being used by a third party then you should think twice. You also start by simply providing your ID and you finish up by getting your account closed for some reason or having legal issues just coinbase got them lately. It's just a matter of time until bitcoin gets fully regulated and people won't like what's gonna happen If they don't control their private keys.

It is a matter of time when every government will have a regulation to have a "know-your-customer" policy in place for every exchange or platform using bitcoins. But as of now that would not be the case and there would really be little the governments can do right now to regulate the bitcoin services.

What I did before, if the option is available to you, is that you buy into some trading platform, like kraken or poloniex, I think they have a way to deposit money into then using fiat. Then you trade your fiat for bitcoins then cash out. It's quite secure to use these platforms, I am just not to sure with the fees if they were that expensive.

You can try to buy from this very forum. There are plenty of people looking to sell bitcoins for other forms of fiat, like paypal, western union, etc. Another way is to use paxful, that is similar to localbitcoins just be careful there are plenty of scammers there, but since you are the one buying, it would probably be easier.

I have personally found LocalBitcoins  peer-to-peer Bitcoin exchange to be faster and easier to use and offers a secure escrow unlike pax that has had there escrow compromised in the past.

See there are many platforms that sell bitcoin but the platforms that I have tried and felt reliable are-

1)LocalBitcoins can be described as less of an exchange and more as a platform where individual bitcoin buyers and sellers from all over the world can find each other

2)A trading-focused bitcoin service provider, Kraken appeals to bitcoin traders as you can leverage and even short on the platform.
 They are very reputable and was one of the first bitcoin exchanges to pass an independent audit.

3)BitStamp is a favorite due to its ability to accept bitcoin purchase with credit or debit cards.
Users can also withdraw bitcoins as physical gold – a novelty not offered by any other bitcoin exchanges in this list.

4)BitQuick is all about speed.
How it operates is similar to LocalBitcoins where you buy and sell from other individuals. Buying bitcoins will incur 2% fee.
However selling bitcoins are free.

5)E-Coin is included in this list as they allow indirect bitcoin purchase with PayPal, which is rare.
You can also buy bitcoins with PayPal with other services such as Paxful or VirWox – both options incur higher fees.

There are loads of exchanges other than Lbtc that can be used to buy Bitcoins. I prefer Bitstamp as I'm also able to day trade on it. Some others include Bitfinex, Kraken, Zebpay, Coinbase etc. These are the trusted exchanges and apps that buy/sell BTC.

Which platforms do you prefer to buy Bitcoin? Generally, trade sites, localbitcoins and bitcointalk sites are used.
Are there any platforms you buy bitcoin besides these?

I only use local platform (vip.bitcoin) and sometimes trade with a local trader. I do not trade or buy from the other platform, but trusted and cheap one because sometimes the other platform give high fees.
Interested to know more about vip.bitcoin.
Where are they located and would anyone be able to use their services?
I tried bitpanda but they are region restricted only to European countries.
Looking for one in North America.
A link maybe?

I prefer peer to peer trading rather than to try to trade in those centralized exchanges, they have their advantages but I prefer to buy and sell to other users of bitcoin directly.

I prefer in trading sites, Why? Because many people tried and tested the site, so it is legit. I'm not buying peer to peer because I have fear in scammer. Bitcointalk sites, I will try if the trading site is Offline. I don't know if there are any platforms to buy bitcoin.

There is nothing worst then using a centralized website where providing your ID and personal info is a must. I personally would prefer with ATMs or trading with individuals on some forums. Exchanges are only an option when the price is currently increasing and you need a fast way to sell and make profit.

Then it's not worst since you already mentioned what is the advantage of using an exchange which is not possible on a quick response when dealing with peer to peer transaction with other people.

Kraken with SEPA ability, Coinmama, Virwox. and other good platform to buy bitcoin.

same Kraken is one of the best if not the best, kraken was never hacked like the other exchange, and provide good speed an very low fee, i don't like coinbase or any exchange that require my credential to send money, i like to preserve my privacy

Why not try to go with coinbase? It's look like many are pissed with them.

Generally we have standard bitcoin exchanges like: Kraken, Bitfinex, Gemini, OkCoin, Bitstamp.
Peer to peer trading platforms like: localbitcoins or paxful.
Decentralized exchanges, - I believe  there is currently only one operational - Bitsquare

On top of that you can arrange individual trades with traders met online.

Just word of advice - don't use Credit Card or PayPal to buy coins, these options are 5-15% more costly than main exchanges price.
