To update your setting preferences to make your birthday or work anniversary private, click on your name on the bottom left side bar to enter your profile settings.
Then, go to the Personal Information tab, which lists your user profile information.*
Scroll down until you find the Birthday and Hire Date section.
If you want to make either or both private, you will check the box that says Keep my birthday/work anniversary shoutout private.
You can also completely disable birthday shoutouts:
When disabled, no birthday notifications—public or private—will be generated or sent for yourself.
Setting your birthday to private only affects birthday notifications and doesn't impact other types of notifications in Nectar. - When set to private, Nectar will not send public birthday messages in Slack channels or display it on the home feed. Instead, a notification will be visible only to you and not shared with colleagues.
These privacy settings remain in effect throughout your birthday month.
Then make sure to press the Save Changes button.
