Control who views your information

In SeaTalk, you can decide who gets to see certain information. This includes:

  • the exact time when you're last seen on the app;
  • if you’re currently on leave;
  • your company email;
  • how others can add you on the app; and
  • if you allow your colleagues to chat with you directly.

To access these settings:

  • On your mobile device, open the SeaTalk app.
  • At the bottom, tap Me.
  • Tap Settings.
  • Tap Privacy.
  • To control who sees the exact time when you’re last active on the app, tap Exact Last Seen and select Everyone, Colleagues, or Nobody.
  • To control who sees if you’re on leave, tap Leave Status and select Everyone, Colleagues, or Nobody.
  • To control who sees your company email, tap Company Email and select Everyone or Colleagues.
  • To control how others can add you as a friend, tap Methods for Friending Me. Toggle the switches off to prevent people from adding you that way:
    • Group Chat: people can add you when you’re in the same group chat.
    • QR Codes: people can add you using your QR code.
    • Contact Card: people can add you when they arrive at your profile.
  • To prevent colleagues from chatting with you directly, toggle the Allow Colleague Direct Chat switch off. Colleagues now must add you as a friend first before they can reach out to you.
