The Birthday field post by Melissa Lautenbach got me thinking about this.  I record a lot of personal details about my clients on my phone, rather than in pipedrive due to GDPR issues. Things such as family life, home area, married, kids, school, sport interests etc. It allows for a richer conversation when we are chatting. I would like to record this in the contact notes in pipedrive, but would only be able to do so if I could mark the note as private.

Anyone else have this issue?

    Hey Paul, thank you for reaching.

    While to make it private a certain note it is not possible in Pipedrive, you can always change the visibility of the whole item - so that this person, for example, can be visible only for you, the owner.

    Would this be interesting to you? If so, I invite you to check our article regarding visibilities to have a better picture: https://support.pipedrive.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000309498-Visibility-Groups

    Hopefully this will help, but if you have more questions, feel free to reach out to our Support team.

    Hi Clarissa,

    Thank you for the very quick response, I am aware of this feature however in the construction industry the sales teams are not the only people who need sight of each opportunity.  The process involves many bid, estimating and planning resources who require access to the contact details within.

    It is our pleasure, Paul!

    I totally see your point and it is important, therefore I'll make sure to let our team knows so we can improve this as soon as possible.

    I agree - being able to make a note private, or private to a small group, is important.
