Just about anyone can see your private details on Couchsurfing if you don’t change settings. Tweaking the privacy settings can help you feel safer about using the site.
[Edit]Steps
- Log in to the site, click on your name in the top left and select “Account settings.”
- Select “Privacy” from the menu way over in the top right.
- Scroll down the list and activate any of the options you want for privacy. An example is “hide name,” which you switch from the default “no” to “yes.”
- Add any other privacy options after scrolling down more. Another example is “only seen by members.” If you make this “yes,” only members will see your profile.
- Finish changing your settings and then click “Update profile.” This is all the way at the bottom of the screen and it will save your new privacy settings.
