Tank journals, forum posts, and profile information you mark as public are visible to all visitors. You can set your tank visibility to private at any time from your tank settings.
Activity feed (Ripple)
Public activity (new photos, journal updates, forum posts) appears in the community Ripple feed. You can opt out of Ripple in your account settings.
