Set My Privacy in Volunteer Connect
Volunteer Connect provides volunteers a way to see who's on their team and view contact information so they can connect with each other. However, you may not want to share all your details, especially if the team is very large. After all, privacy is important! So, volunteers can choose which information other people can see. If needed, you can hide all your information so only group leaders and primary contacts of the volunteer team can view it.
Privacy Options
- Birthday
- Home Phone
- Mobile Phone
- Address
- Photo
All options (except for Photo) default to Group Leaders Only until you make a selection. Initially, everyone on your team can see your photo. Carefully consider who is on your teams and what information you want them to have access to. Remember, teams are all about the connecting with other volunteers, and sharing this information provides a way for others to connect with you. The decision is yours!
Privacy options apply to each of your teams separately. So, for example, you may allow your close-knit small group to see all of your information but hide your phone numbers and address from the larger community team you're in.
Show or Hide My Information

What can my team leader see?
Team leaders can see all of the available information on your record. Here's what the Volunteers tab would look like for a leader.
