# Will my imported data be kept private, or can other users see it?

By default all Simkl profiles are public and everyone can see your watchlists and imported data.

You have the option to make your profile and watchlists private in [Privacy Settings](https://simkl.com/settings/privacy/).

1. Simkl has never sold and will never sell personal identifiable information without you agreeing to it. (With the legal exception of service transfer to another company in case of acquisition). See full details privacy info at <https://simkl.com/about/policies/privacy/>
2. All watchlists are by default not private by the nature of the service and visible to all your friends and Simkl members, etc.
3. You have the option to make your profile private in privacy settings <https://simkl.com/settings/privacy/>
4. Custom Lists have options to make the list Private or Unlisted from the discovery sections.
5. All movies in your Watchlist marked "Adult" are by default hidden from other members looking at your Watchlist.
6. In case you find any bugs with privacy or any ideas on how to improve it, make sure to notify the Simkl developers immediately.
7. Simkl provides an option to clean or delete the account automatically.
8. Clicking on external links going out of the website is not the subject of Simkl's privacy policy and is operated by the policy of that website once you interact with their content, as they can trace your referral which may include your profile IDs.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.simkl.org/how-to-use-simkl/advanced-usage/import-export-data/importing-to-simkl/faq-troubleshooting/will-my-imported-data-be-kept-private-or-can-other-users-see-it.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
