Frequently Asked Questions

Will I still be able to see who viewed my profile if I enable private mode?

No, when you enable private mode in LinkedIn Sales Navigator, you lose the ability to see who has viewed your profile. This is a trade-off LinkedIn enforces - if you want to browse anonymously, you can't see your own profile visitors either.

Can I temporarily disable private mode when needed?

Yes, you can easily switch private mode on and off by returning to the same settings menu. Simply follow the same steps and select a different viewing option when you want to browse normally again.

Does private mode affect my Sales Navigator search capabilities?

Private mode only affects profile viewing visibility and doesn't impact your ability to search for prospects or use other Sales Navigator features. You can still save leads, send InMails, and access all premium tools while browsing anonymously.
