Privacy Levels on SnipeSocial

SnipeSocial allows users to customize their privacy settings with three distinct privacy levels. These options can be applied to various features and permissions on your profile:

  1. Everyone
    Selecting this option means that any user on SnipeSocial, whether they are on your friends list or not, can access the specific information or interact with the selected feature.
  2. Friends
    Choosing this option restricts access to your SnipeSocial friends only. This ensures that only people you have connected with can see or engage with the selected information or feature.
  3. No One
    This is the most private setting. By selecting this option, you are effectively disabling the feature or ensuring that no one else has access to the information.

These levels provide flexibility to manage how you share your personal information and interact with others on the platform, ensuring your privacy preferences are always respected.
