Viewing Private Documents

If I have a Pro license so private documents but if I share the document with a non-pro user does the document become public?

    Non-Pro accounts cannot edit private documents, only view, comment and export (even if you try to give edit permissions)  But think carefully about the security of the document; when setting permissions, ensure copy is NOT an option so your private document is not in danger of being copied to a public workspace.

    Thank you Mike, does this mean that they still stay private and not available in the public arena?
