# Privacy & Visibility

> Control who can see your content and data on the platform

Privacy settings across the platform provide granular control over who can view content, whether you are creating posts, uploading files, building dashboards, or starting projects

# Core Visibility Settings

You can fine-tune the visibility of items to one of these settings: 

| Level       | Who Can See It                                                                                                                                                                       |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Public      | Anyone with the direct link can view the content, even if they are not logged into the platform                                                                                      |
| Private     | Visibility is restricted only to you or your organization                                                                                                                            |
| Connections | The content is visible to all of your direct connections                                                                                                                             |
| Custom      | Allows for specific sharing rules, such as sharing with: <ul><li>All groups</li><li>Specific groups</li><li>Specific individuals</li><li>With “allow” or “not allow” rules</li></ul> |

* **Sharing is additive rather than subtractive**: For example, if you share a resource with two specific groups and also set it to "Public," it will be visible in the "My Resources" for those groups and remain accessible via a public link to anyone else
* **Inherited Permissions:** By default, a file inherits the permissions of its "container" If you upload an image to a post shared with a specific group, members of that group will see that image in their local Files tab
* **Retroactive Changes:** To change a file's privacy after it has been shared (e.g., making a previously shared file private), you must go to the Files on your individual profile. This is the central place to modify visibility or delete a file across the platform.
