Page Privacy & Teamspaces

You decide who sees each SievePage. A page can be public for everyone, private for just you, or a teamspace shared only with people you invite. This guide covers what each one means, what stays hidden, and where to change it.

Public by default

When you sign up, your main page at sieve.page/yourusername is public, so followers and clients can find it right away. Public pages are visible to anyone and can appear in search results and link previews.

Making a page private

Private means only you can see it. Anyone else who opens the link gets a short "this page is private" notice instead of your work.

  • Your main page: open the Share dialog at the top of the page, then set Who can see this page to Private.
  • Other pages (Pro): open the page's appearance settings and switch its visibility to Private.

Switch back to Public at any time. The change takes effect immediately, and the Public / Private badge in the status row at the top of your page updates the moment you toggle it.

What a private page hides

Turning a page private hides everything on it from everyone but you:

  • Cards, columns, and your commission queue
  • Gallery images
  • Any card you shared with a direct link, including one posted on social. The link stops showing your content.
  • Link previews and search listings fall back to a plain placeholder, so nothing leaks.

If you make a page private after sharing it, those older links and previews stop working for visitors right away.

Sharing a page with a group

Need a page that a whole group can see and edit, not just you? That's a teamspace, and it's private to its members by default. See Teamspaces for how to set one up and invite people.

Free and Pro

  • Free: your one username page. It is public by default, and you can switch it to private whenever you like.
  • Pro: multiple pages, including private pages and invite-only teamspaces beyond your main page.

See Plans and credits for the full plan comparison.

Where everything lives

  • Page visibility (public or private): the Share dialog for your main page; the page's appearance settings for other pages.
  • The Public / Private badge: in the status row near the top of your page, so you always know the current state.
  • Create a page (Public, Private, or Team): the + New page button in the sidebar.
  • Teamspace members: the team's settings.
