Sharing & Privacy

Overview

Madly's sharing feature lets you create public pages to share your content with others. Sharing is designed with privacy as the default — your sensitive information is protected, and you maintain full control.

Requirements

You must be signed in
The content must have a Final version set
Only Final versions can be shared

Steps

Navigate to your Run
Set a version as Final (if not already)
Click Share
Copy the share link

What Gets Shared

Shared	Not Shared
Final Script	Draft versions
Publish Pack	Your assets
Platform tabs	Private references
Block copy buttons	Personal notes

For Viewers

Share pages are read-only and include:

Full Script View — The complete final script
Publish Pack Tabs — All 4 platform packs
Block-Level Copy — Anyone can copy any section
Clone Button — Create their own version (requires sign-in)

Clone (Use This Template)

When someone clones your share:

What they get:

Input parameters (topic, audience, goal, etc.)
Template configuration
Platform preferences

What they don't get:

Your assets or private references
Your version history
Your personal style profile

The clone becomes their independent project — changes don't affect your original.

Privacy Controls

Automatic Desensitization

Before a share page is created, Madly automatically:

Scans for sensitive patterns (emails, phone numbers, etc.)
Warns you if potential sensitive content is detected
Blocks shares that contain high-risk sensitive data

Redaction Policy

Each share has a redaction_policy_version that defines what gets filtered:

Version	Behavior
v1	Emails, phone numbers flagged
Future	Additional patterns as needed

The policy version is stored with your share, so if we update our detection, your existing shares maintain their original behavior.

Manual Review

Before sharing, you should:

Review the content that will be shared
Check for any personal or client information
Remove or edit sensitive content before setting Final

Revoking Shares

How to Revoke

Go to your Run or Share management
Find the active share
Click Revoke

What Happens

The share link immediately stops working
Visitors see an error or redirect
The revocation is permanent for that link
You can create a new share if needed

Revocation is Immediate

There's no grace period. Once revoked:

Existing viewers lose access
Cached pages become invalid
The slug cannot be reused

Share links use high-entropy slugs:

Not guessable — Random, high-entropy strings
Not enumerable — You can't discover other shares by guessing
Private by default — No indexing, no search visibility

Best Practices

✅ Review all content in the Final version
✅ Remove client names or sensitive project details
✅ Check that links and handles are appropriate to share
✅ Verify the content represents your best work

✅ Use shares for collaboration, not permanent hosting
✅ Consider revoking after the collaboration ends
✅ Create fresh shares for different audiences

For Collaboration

✅ Share with clients for approval
✅ Share with collaborators for feedback
✅ Share templates for others to clone and learn from
