Privacy Levels
-
- Anyone in the church – Like a church directory listing, everyone in the church will be able to see whatever profile information is marked as visible to everyone
-
- Leaders & group/serving team members – This setting means information will only be shared with the people you are involved with at the church. Also includes Church Staff. This is the default setting.
-
- Leaders – You would use this setting if you wanted to keep some profile information hidden from anyone who is not a group leader or on staff.
-
- Church Staff only – If selected, only staff members and database administrators can see your information. Your name will still be shown in the Online Directory, but no other information will be available.
-
- Custom Privacy – Choose different privacy levels for specific contact fields and personal information.
