# Manage settings and security

> Update your profile, organization preferences, and account protection settings.

Use **Settings** to manage information that affects your AIRCTRL account experience and its security.

Organization preferences let Acme Labs maintain its name, language, and timezone in one place.

## Update your profile

Open **Settings** and choose **Profile**. Update your display name or username, then save the change. Use a clear display name so teammates can recognize you in member lists and activity.

The Acme Owner profile keeps the display name and username separate so each can be updated deliberately.

The **Identity** tab contains your display name and username.

## Choose your avatar

Open **Settings** and choose **Profile > Avatar**. Select an available avatar to apply it immediately. Choose **None** to remove the artwork. Avatar color saves when you select a color; **Auto** restores the generated color.

## Set your organization preferences

Open **Settings** and choose **Preferences**. Use the organization settings to review the organization name, language, and timezone.

Choose the timezone that makes account activity and time-based information understandable to you. Confirm the saved value before you leave the page.

## Set your session preferences

Open **Settings > Preferences > Session** to choose how long AIRCTRL can remain idle before signing you out. Choose the default policy or one of the available time limits. AIRCTRL warns you before the timeout.

Use **Signed-in devices** to review browsers and devices where your account is signed in. Select **Sign out** beside a device to end that session, or choose **Sign out from this device** to end the current session.

## Protect your sign-in

Open **Settings** and choose **Security**. In **2FA**, manage your authenticator app or SMS verification. Use **Email** to verify addresses and choose the primary address. Use **Recovery** for sign-in recovery codes and vault recovery. Organization recovery tools appear when your account and role allow them. In **Privacy**, control whether AIRCTRL collects product analytics about your onboarding and app usage.

Keep recovery codes and recovery kits in a secure place outside AIRCTRL. Do not store recovery material in a record that other people can access.

When you reset a sign-in password, complete the verification flow before setting a new password. Your vault passphrase remains a separate secret.

For access changes that affect other people, use [Manage access](https://docs.airctrl.dev/app-guide/access.md) instead.

## Change appearance

Open **Settings** and choose **Appearance**. Use **Themes** to choose the app theme, accent, and sidebar pattern. Use **Background** to choose a wallpaper and its readability overlay. Use **FX** to adjust glass panels, shadows, and background blur.

These choices affect how the app looks on your account. They do not change project access or record contents.

## Choose notifications

Open **Settings** and choose **Notifications**. **In-app & desktop** controls which categories also send desktop notifications; in-app notifications remain available from the notification bell. **Push** lets you enable background notifications on the current browser when it supports them and grants permission.
