Privacy mode visually masks the values Ceum treats as sensitive — most monetary amounts, contact names, dates, and personal details — while keeping the layout intact so you can still find your way around. Turn it on before screen sharing or recording, then turn it back off afterward.
How to toggle it
Privacy mode is your own preference, and you can toggle it from the user menu or with the keyboard shortcut documented in Keyboard shortcuts. The setting is remembered per browser, so it survives reloads but doesn't follow you to another device.
When you toggle it in one tab, your other tabs in the same browser update to match automatically.
What gets blurred
Privacy mode blurs and locks the following from selection:
- Monetary amounts — transactions, invoices, subscriptions, dashboard totals, and the currency conversion tooltip (which is hidden entirely).
- Contact names — client names in tables and participant names in detail panels.
- Dates — due dates, billing dates, and renewal dates.
- Personal details — email, phone, address, company names, tax IDs, and bank account details.
- MCP token values — token prefixes in Integrations and MCP events, and the one-time token shown when you create one. Its copy button keeps working while the token is blurred.
Status badges, layout, counts, and column headers stay visible so you can keep operating the app.
Form fields
Inputs aren't blurred while you're editing — you need to see what you're typing. The blur applies to read-only displays like table cells, detail panels, and badges. Previews of currency or names inside a form render normally while you're working in it.
Privacy mode and currency
When privacy mode is on, the Currency formatter hides the "converted into your default currency" tooltip and blurs the amount. The actual number is unchanged — only the display is masked.
Tips and edge cases
- Your data is unchanged. Privacy mode is purely a display layer; it doesn't change exports or anything that's saved.
- Exports ignore privacy mode. A
CSVorPDFexport contains the real values regardless of whether privacy mode is on. - The blur isn't bulletproof. A modest blur is for casual screen sharing, not security. If you're producing public content, make sure the underlying data isn't sensitive in the first place.
- Per browser, not per account. Two browsers — or a regular and an incognito window — keep their own separate toggle states.
On mobile
Privacy mode is on the mobile app too — toggle it from settings, and sensitive values (amounts, contact details) are masked with a blur. The toggle is stored on the device, separate from your browser's.
