What are the visibility permissions for files & folders?

MangoApps has 4 visibility permissions for files and folders:

• Private: Setting the visibility of a file or folder as 'Private' removes everyone it’s been shared with and only the owner will have access to it.

• Shared: Setting the visibility of a file or folder as 'Shared' means only the users explicitly granted the permissions will have access to it.

• Team: Files/folders created in a project, group or department have visibility setting of 'Team'. This means that all members of the team by default have access to it.

• Full Company: Setting the visibility of a file or folder as 'Full Company' will allow everyone in your company access to it with Editor privileges.
