Are Websites Hosted on Azure with Dreamspark subscriptions publicly accessible?

173 Views Asked by At

I'm a computer science student with a Microsoft Dreamspark subscription. I recently created a website which I'm trying to host on Azure. The website URL is nickgilbert.azurewebsites.net. Whenever anybody besides me tries to access it they get hit with a sign-in wall prompting the user to sign into their Microsoft account. Can I fix this so the website is publicly accessible or does Dreamspark only let the subscription holder see the website?
