Disable analytics tracking
Path: Airtable > Settings > Privacy > Analytics

Restrict profile visibility

Third-party apps may have access to your data through these connections.
Enable two-factor authentication

What Airtable Still Collects
Even with all privacy settings maximized, Airtable still collects certain types of data as part of its core functionality. Understanding these limitations is important for making informed decisions about whether to continue using the service or switch to a privacy-first alternative that collects less data by design.
Want True Privacy? Switch to WeTalkin
While hardening Airtable's settings helps, it cannot fully protect your privacy because the platform's business model depends on collecting your data. For genuine privacy, consider switching to WeTalkin, which is built from the ground up with privacy as the primary design principle. Unlike Airtable, it does not profit from your personal information.
