49er Express: Calendar: Changing Privacy Settings

You can control what others can see and change on your calendar. These settings are known as privacy settings (permissions). When you create a calendar, you may give certain privacy settings to a user or users. For example, you can give all users, or certain users permission to see and change information on your calendar. The information below can be used for different privacy settings.
