Access to your photos depends on the access rights associated with selected photos.

Inbox.com distinguishes six types of access rights:

• Private - When you select this setting, only you will be able to see the photo.

• Accessible by Family & Friends - When you select this setting, the photo will be accessible to any Inbox.com users in your Contact list who you have marked as Friends, Family or both, when they log into your photo album using their Inbox.com login. It will also be accessible to people who know the secret password that you have assigned to Family or Friends in your Photos module settings.

  

  

• Accessible by Family - When you select this setting, the photo will be accessible to any Inbox.com users in your Contact list who you have marked as family, when they log into your photo album using their Inbox.com login. It will also be accessible to people who know the secret password you have assigned to Family in your Photos module settings.

• Accessible by Friends - When you select this setting, the photo will be accessible to any Inbox.com users in your Contact list who you have marked as friends, when they log into your photo album using their Inbox.com login. It will also be accessible to people who know the secret password you have assigned to Friends in your Photos module settings.

• Restricted access - When you select this setting, the photo will be accessible to any Inbox.com users in your Contact list who you have marked as "This person can access my photos with restricted access" within the detail of their contact. It will also be accessible to people who know the secret password you have assigned for restricted access within your Photos module settings.

• Public - Anyone who knows the link to your photo album can see photos that are set as public.

If you want to make your photos available to people who are not included in your contact list, simply send them the link to your photo album and a password (if the photos are not public).

If you want to make your photos available to people who are included in your contacts and who are registered Inbox.com users, follow these steps:

1. Click on the "Contacts" tab.

   

2. Click on the contact, that you want to edit, and click on the "Edit" button.

   

3. Within the "Photo Access" section, select the privileges that you want to apply to the selected contact.

   

4. Click on the "Save Settings" button to make the change take effect.

5. Send the link to your friend along with instructions to login using his Inbox.com login and password.

When you set photos as public, you may send only a link (no password is required) to your photo album in order to allow anybody to see your photos.
