Custom Field setting - Hidden but visible in Contacts table & Export: A smarter way to handle sensitive data
We’re introducing a powerful new setting for custom fields that gives you more control over how and where attendee data appears - maximizing lead value for exhibitors while keeping participant privacy front and center.
With this update, you can now choose to make sensitive custom fields like seniority level, addresses, or preferences:
🔒 Hidden from public-facing profiles
📤 Visible only in Teams Contacts & exports when a meaningful connection has been made.
It’s a seamless way to protect attendee data, while still ensuring exhibitors get the information they need to make high-quality follow-ups.
🎯 Targeted lead capture without oversharing
No more exposing full details on attendee profiles. Now, those fields only show up in Connections Exports or Team Contacts & exports when there’s an actual relationship between the participants.
🧠 Smarter privacy, not more complexity
This gives you the flexibility to keep profiles clean and professional, while delivering real value where it counts - in the hands of exhibitors who earned it.
🚫 Say goodbye to manual workarounds
No more juggling visibility settings or sharing private details manually. Set once in the dashboard and let the system handle the rest.
✅ Strike the perfect balance between privacy and performance
✅ Deliver more meaningful data to exhibitors and sponsors
✅ Empower teams with smarter exports, without profile clutter
✅ Fully automated, no extra effort required
This is lead generation with purpose: respecting attendee privacy while unlocking exhibitor success. Now available in Grip! Talk to your account manager or reach out to support@grip.events to activate it.
