# Contacts
The Contacts page shows all your contact data in a board that each user can customize. There are two view modes: **Table** and **Kanban**.
### Managing views
Each board has several views that users can manage.
1. **Adding a new view:**
* Every user can add a new view by clicking **+ New View**.
* Each view can be set to public or private.
2. **View actions:**
* **Duplicate:** every user can duplicate a view.
* **Change visibility & delete:** only an Administrator or the view's owner can do this.
* The **default view** can't be deleted.
3. **View order:**
* The order of views is set per user, not globally.
* Pinned views appear furthest to the left.
***
### Who can see which contacts
Users can only see contacts based on these rules:
* Contacts assigned to themselves.
* Contacts belonging to people below them in the role hierarchy.
* Contacts belonging to colleagues, if **Share data with peers** is turned on for their role.
* Contacts that haven't been assigned to anyone yet **(unassigned)**.
***
### Table & Kanban settings
Each view mode has its own settings, which you can open from **View Setting**.
1. **Table settings:**
* Show or hide the fields you want in this view.
2. **Kanban settings:**
* Choose how cards are grouped with **Group by**.
* Cards are grouped by **Stage** by default.
***
### Filter & Save as View
An Administrator or the view's owner can save how a board looks as the global default.
1. **Setting the default layout:**
* Switch the view type (Table or Kanban) as needed, then save it as the global default.
2. **Using filters:**
* Use **Basic Filter** for simple filters on the available fields.
* Use **Advanced Filter** to combine more complex conditions.
* Click **Save as View** to apply the filter as the global default view.
