How do I make my yahoo account private?

How to make yahoo account completely private?

• Ik how to get there and all but the 3 choices are- Everyone, contacts and fans, contacts only. So if I click on contacts only would that mean all of my contacts see my information and the questions I ask and answer? Do they get e-mails saying that I asked a question or I answered one? I hope not but if they do how can I stop that? Some of the questions I ask are really personal and I don't need all of my contacts seeing them. :| Please help!!1

• Answer:

  Go to your YA profile by either clicking on your avatar or <my activity> at the top of this page, click "edit my preferences", click "privacy & communications", under "sharing and network" you can set your preferences the way you like. Your YA contacts will always be able to read what you post on YA, but they will only get mails letting them know what you posted, if they opted for it. In case you don't like that, you should not allow any contacts.
