Your Privacy
Who can see your personal and contact information?
By default, the viewing of your personal and contact information is limited to members of groups you are in, group leaders, and other registered users who have permission to view profiles—usually those who work with profiles in your church.
However, you can make your information visible to all registered users of your church's Realm website, including other congregants. For more, see Privacy and the Online Directory.

Control who sees your personal information.
Many find the online directory in Realm invaluable for locating contact information, putting faces with names, and matching children and spouses to names. For various reasons, however, some like to limit who can see contact and personal information.

- Click your name in the upper-right corner, and select Privacy.
- Select your name or the name of a family member.
- Select the privacy option you're comfortable with, or click Custom Privacy and select options for each field.
