You are always in control. A sponsor can see the town you are in, never the venue, unless you choose otherwise.

Every setting, in plain words
Who can find me
| Setting | On | Off |
|---|---|---|
| Let gifters find me while I am checked in | You can be listed | You are not listed and nobody is told when you check in |
| On the Discover page, show me | By town only shows your name, town and requests | Not at all means only someone with your code or link can treat you |
Sharing where I am
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Show gifters which venue I am at | Off unless you turn it on. When on, any gifter and anyone opening your public profile can see the venue name. |
| When a gifter is in the same venue as me | Choose Keep me hidden or Let them see me. You are hidden until you choose. |
| Show my table and seat to a gifter in the same venue | Only ever shown to a gifter who has scanned a code inside that venue. |
Gyftup asks you to confirm before it shows your venue, yourself or your seat.
Receiving gifts
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Ask me first before a gifter can pay for a live item | On means you approve each request before anyone is charged. |
| Accept gifts from gifters who stay anonymous | Off means only named gifters can treat you. |
What gifters can and cannot see
They can see
- Your display name, photo, wishlist and what you would like.
- That you are live, and your town, if you are listed.
They never see
- Your home address, phone number or exact location.
- Your venue, table or seat, unless you turned that on.
The venue's own staff see your table and seat so gifts reach you.
