|

<h2>Sharing your data in the global address book<a class="headerlink" href="#sharing-your-data-in-the-global-address-book" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
|
||
<p>Some administrators decide to share their global address book with other Nextcloud instances (so called <em>Trusted Servers</em>) or even with the wider world.
|
||
This is helpful when two instances want to work closely together, or when people want to use Nextcloud as a virtual telephone book for others to browse.
|
||
It also allows searching for contacts, creating shares and much more.</p>
|
||
<p>You can change what personal data of yours is shared by setting the scope of your data. Clicking on the lock icon will open the following dropdown
|
||
next to each entry:</p>
|
||
<blockquote>
|
||
<div><figure class="align-default">
|
||
<img alt="screenshot of scope dropdown on personal information form field" src="_images/userdata-scope.png" />
|
||
</figure>
|
||
</div></blockquote>
|
||
<p>If you set your data to <strong>Private</strong>, nobody but you will be able to see it.</p>
|
||
<p>If you set your data to <strong>Local</strong>, all logged in users within your Nextcloud instance will be able to see the information, but noone outside of it.</p>
|
||
<p>If you set your data to <strong>Federated</strong>, the trusted server(s) which are added by your administrator will be able to see this data, in addition to all logged in users.</p>
|
||
<p>If you set your data to <strong>Global</strong>, anyone can see your data. For some use cases this is wanted.
|
||
Someone with a public facing role such as marketing or sales might want to share their contact with a wide variety of connections which might not be using Nextcloud.</p>
