Why are dots covering my account number? (Privacy Mode)

What is Privacy Mode?

Dots will cover your account number when enabled

We were all taught to share when we were children, but there are some things in life that aren’t meant to be shared. If you subscribe to this notion and are in a public place or are showing off your tastytrade platform to a friend then you can conceal your account number(s), portfolio net liq, and account type. Privacy mode displays a shortened account number and conceals the account’s portfolio net liq with dots.

How do I turn on/off Privacy Mode?

Privacy Mode within the desktop platform and web-based platform can be enabled/disabled by heading to each respective platform’s Settings menu. If Privacy Mode is enabled on the desktop platform then it will reflect onto the web-based platform, and vice-versa.
