Hello all 🙂  
I was wondering if there is a function where I can make certain contacts (assigned to me) invisible to my other HubSpot team members.  
So that only I (my profile) can see and manage those certain contacts.

If yes, how do I do this? If no, then where can I suggest the implementation of such a function to HubSpot?

Thank you in advance, have a nice day!

-Hanni

Hi HanniK

You could go into their user settings and make it so that they could only see contacts who they owned.

Hope that helps,

Emily

Hi @HanniK,

This can be achieved with contact access permissions: [HubSpot user permissions guide](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/settings/hubspot-user-permissions-guide)

If you’re the admin of your HubSpot portal, you would have to [edit the permissions of users](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/settings/edit-user-permissions) to see their owned contacts only. Ownership is managed via [owner properties](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/crm-setup/how-to-set-an-owner).

If you’re not the admin, you’d have to reach out to your admin to make these changes.

Outside of this, there isn’t any feature to make a contact private.

Best regards!
