# Private Canvases

It is possible to have canvases that are completely private, ie when someone goes to the URL for the canvas they will not see the canvas and have to login to [Kumu](https://docs.wayfinders.network/apps-and-tools/wayfinder-platform/further-guidance-and-customisation) first. However this comes at a further cost (as set by Kumu), so please [get in touch](mailto:info@wayfinders.network) with us to discuss this option.

We have carefully designed granular [viewing permissions for content](https://docs.wayfinders.network/apps-and-tools/storykeeper/story-and-media-viewing-permissions) that should cater for most use-cases without needing to activate a private canvas.
