Contact ownership has been removed from Lusha Lists — every contact saved to a list is now visible to your whole team, regardless of who revealed it. Alongside this, List Permissions give you control over who can view and edit each list.
💡 Note: When a user leaves the account, their Private lists automatically become Public so the team doesn't lose access.
