# How can I change the privacy of my project?

A project's privacy setting controls who can view, edit, or submit runs to the project. To change a project's privacy (visibility):

1. Navigate to your W\&B project.
2. From the top of any project page, click the icon next to the project name to edit the project's visibility. The icon reflects the current visibility scope: **Open**, **Public**, **Team**, or **Restricted**.
3. From the **Project Visibility** dropdown, select the desired scope, then click **Save**.

   | Scope      | Icon                                       | Description                                                                                                                        |
   | ---------- | ------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
   | Open       | <Icon icon="globe" iconType="solid" />     | Anyone who knows about the project can view it and submit runs or reports.                                                         |
   | Public     | <Icon icon="lock-open" iconType="solid" /> | Anyone who knows about the project can view it. Only your team can submit runs or reports.                                         |
   | Team       | <Icon icon="users" iconType="solid" />     | Only members of the parent team can view the project and submit runs or reports. Anyone outside the team can't access the project. |
   | Restricted | <Icon icon="lock" iconType="solid" />      | Only invited members from the parent team can view the project and submit runs or reports.                                         |

   <Note>
     If your W\&B admins have turned off **Public** visibility, you can't choose it. Instead, you can share a view-only [W\&B Report](/models/reports/collaborate-on-reports#share-a-report), or contact your W\&B organization's admins for assistance.
   </Note>

The project now uses the privacy setting you selected. If you update a project to a stricter privacy setting, you may need to re-invite individual users to restore their ability to access the project.
