Important security measures for StudioShare hosts

Hosting on StudioShare comes with the responsibility of ensuring a safe environment for both you and your guests.

Here are the important security considerations to prioritize

Account security: Use strong, unique passwords and activate two-factor authentication for your StudioShare account to prevent unauthorized access.

Personal information: Be careful about sharing personal information. Communicate via the StudioShare platform to protect your privacy.

Guest screening: At StudioShare, a background check of the guests is included, which we pass on to the host before they accept bookings. We review their profiles, messages and previous reviews and more to ensure compatibility and reliability.
