Family Privacy Online: A Practical Guide
6 min read
A family calendar is a map of where your household will be and when. It deserves the same care as any other sensitive record.
Prefer least-privilege sharing
Ask what the smallest useful amount of information is for each person you share with. A tutor needs a lesson time, not your week.
Watch for accidental exposure
Whole-calendar sharing, group invites, and public links are the most common ways household information travels further than intended. Per-event, read-only sharing avoids most of it.
Ask where authorization happens
If an app decides what you can see in the browser, that decision can be manipulated. Server-side authorization on every request is the safer model, and it is the one HausPlatz uses.
