# GrypsTube Visibility Levels

GrypsTube provides four distinct privacy settings to control who can access uploaded video content. These settings can be modified after the video has been published.

## Access Levels

| Level | Visibility | Access Requirement | Listed in Overviews? |
|------|------------|---------------------|----------------------|
| **Public** (Öffentlich) | Everyone | None | Yes |
| **Unlisted** (Nicht gelistet) | Direct Link | Direct URL | No |
| **Private** (Privat) | Owner | Login (Owner only) | No |
| **Internal** (Intern) | Account Holders | Login (Any account) | No |

## Critical Notes

### The "Internal" Setting
The **Internal** setting, which allows any user with a GrypsTube account to view the video after logging in, is explicitly **not recommended** by the URZ.

### Copyright Compliance
For materials subject to copyright, the recommended strategy is to use the **Unlisted** setting. To ensure the content remains protected, the video should be embedded in a secure platform, such as [[moodle]], rather than shared via an open URL.
