Keep a shared calendar from becoming surveillance

Review a calendar that already reveals more of your day than you want, while preserving the information needed for agreed plans.

Try this

Inspect the current recipient list and one representative week. Mark which entry details are genuinely needed to coordinate and which expose unrelated personal activity.
Choose a narrower calendar or availability-only entries using the service’s actual controls. Discuss the new arrangement, then verify that private titles and notes are no longer in the shared view.

A worked example

“Our call and visit can stay shared. My separate work calendar contains details you don’t need, so I’m removing that calendar’s sharing access.”

An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.

Before you leave it here

Reducing visibility does not erase information already seen or copied. Do not describe the change as retroactive privacy; verify the current access you actually changed.

This is a voluntary planning exercise. Keep your notes private, adapt the language, and leave any question unanswered. It does not require Ourling or a purchase.
