# Privacy

The Privacy mode allows teams to make their Squad visible only to its members. This means that even with the link to a Squad, non-members cannot view its details.

If activated, the only way for someone to view the details of a Squad is to be a member and sign a message to verify their wallet. 

{% hint style="info" %}
To ensure that members don't have to re-sign frequently, a session token is stored in the user's browser for 24 hours. If a member switches to another device, they must sign the message again to store a new session token on this second device.
{% endhint %}

To activate the Privacy mode for a Squad:

1. Navigate to the Settings page;
2. Toggle the "Privacy" button;
3. Your Squad will now be viewable only by its members.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Your on-chain activity will still be visible on explorers. The privacy mode only prevents unauthorized viewing of a Squad's assets through the UI. 

This feature will turn off automatically if the subscription has expired.
{% endhint %}
