How to change privacy settings

This explains how to change your privacy settings on Steam so TSA can scan you.

Valve's Changes to Privacy Policy Affect Our Ability To Scan Your Games

Is there a reason my profile isn't being tracked even though my privacy settings are public?

Koding said:Maybe you can help me as well, because I have the same issue. I always kept privacy settings public, tried to change them to private and back to public. But the site scan still says that it can't scan because my settings are private...

Make sure the check for "Always keep my total play time private" is OFF

the playtime check box just solved this for me! thanks Belindo

Thank you! }:)

Remco1986 said:I've done this and it keeps saying I am untrackable. The scan worked yesterday after I made sure my Steam account was set to public as I couldn't create an account without it being public, but I forget to untick that box when the scan actually worked. Today however, the scan keeps telling me I need to change my privacy settings even though they were already set to public.

I've now made sure the box has been unticked and I even set the settings to private and back to public to make sure if that would work, and it didn't. I am now out of my daily scan limit and I am thinking it will never work again as I don't know how one would go about setting an account to public when it is already set to public.

Datchet said:Not sure what changed, but it seems you're trackable now, and a lot of stats have been pulled in two days ago. For my learning, did you change anything after your message?

How long does it usually take stuff to show up on the site after you register for the first time? I'm seeing a lot of people here that talk about the privacy settings and I'm not getting anything on the site saying my settings are set to private, just that it says I haven't played any games yet, which I have. I have double checked all the settings and they are all public and no check marks on the game time.

In writing:
- My basic details: Public
- My profile: Public
- Game details: Public
- Checkbox for “Always keep my total play time private” must be UNCHECKED
- Friends List: Public

Also, try to compare the settings with your other Steam account, as that one seems to be working fine. Alternatively, we can remove your profile so you can register again.
