I'm looking to share a link with others, but the page contains my personal details that I don't want them to see. Is there a way to create a version of the link that doesn't include my personal data? I've done some research, and it seems possible to change the site for myself, but any changes revert after refreshing. I also experimented with the source code but couldn't find a permanent solution. Any advice?

Just to clarify, you're looking to share a webpage without exposing your personal info? There are plenty of ways to do this—like creating a clean version of the site you're linking to that doesn’t show any details about you.
Think of the Internet as a big computer. When you send someone a link, it's like directing them to a file. If you change that file, they'll see the updates. You can also use "URL parameters" to customize what they see. For example, you could use a link like site.com/?access=public&name=hidden, where your file checks these parameters to show or hide specific details.
So, I would just replace "name" with something like "MyName" to hide it, right?
You could create a separate page that doesn't display your personal information. This way, when you share the link, people will access just that page without any of your details showing.
How would I go about making that? I'm not super tech-savvy, so I could use some step-by-step guidance.
Yes! The current webpage automatically includes my info, and I want to share it while keeping my details private.
