Community Privacy Settings

There are three types of community privacy levels. They are:

Public

Searchable and viewable by anyone on the BigHeart platform. The general community for an organization is typically designated as a Public Community unless the organization is secret.

Private

Anyone can search for and request to join these Communities. The community Admin is responsible for approving application requests.

Secret

Not searchable or viewable to users on the platform. Secret communities can only be joined by invitation.

To Change a Community's Privacy:

1. To change your community privacy settings, go to "Manage Communities" by clicking on the downward-facing arrow to the right of your top-right profile picture.
2. Click on your organization in the left list, then click on the "Communities" label under the list of organizations. Click on the appropriate community where you wish to change privacy settings.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the page, then choose your privacy and click "Update". You've now changed community privacy.
