The About Page is a web page within your data room where you can add text, images and videos or attach files from your data room to communicate with your guests.

For example, instead of sending a PDF to introduce details about your project on top of your data room link, you can include these details in your data room About page.

You can also set your about page to be the default landing page for your data room.

To create a great About Page, we recommend adding an introduction to the data room, visually appealing graphics, an FAQ section, and shortcut links to important files/folders.

Only data room guests will be able to view your About Page.
