Security Settings
Protect your account with a strong password and two-factor authentication.
Overview
Security settings help protect your account and data. We recommend enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) for an additional layer of security beyond your password.
Changing Your Password
- 1Open Account Settings
- 2Go to the Security section
- 3Click Change Password
- 4Enter your current password
- 5Enter your new password (minimum 8 characters)
- 6Confirm your new password
- 7Click Update Password
Strong Password Tips
Use at least 12 characters with a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Consider using a password manager to generate and store secure passwords.
Password Requirements
Passwords must meet these requirements:
- Minimum 8 characters
- Cannot be entirely numeric
- Cannot be too similar to your email address
- Cannot be a commonly used password
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Two-factor authentication adds an extra security layer. After entering your password, you'll need a code from your authenticator app to log in.
Compatible Authenticator Apps
- Google Authenticator (iOS, Android)
- Authy (iOS, Android, Desktop)
- 1Password (iOS, Android, Desktop)
- Microsoft Authenticator (iOS, Android)
- Any TOTP-compatible app
Enabling 2FA
- 1Open Account Settings
- 2Go to the Security section
- 3Click Enable Two-Factor Authentication
- 4Open your authenticator app and scan the QR code
- 5Enter the 6-digit code from your app to verify
- 6Save your backup codes in a secure location
Save Your Backup Codes
Backup codes are your only way to recover access if you lose your authenticator device. Store them somewhere safe like a password manager or printed in a secure location.
Using 2FA
When 2FA is enabled, logging in works like this:
- 1Enter your email and password as usual
- 2Open your authenticator app
- 3Enter the 6-digit code (changes every 30 seconds)
- 4Optionally check Remember this device to skip 2FA for 30 days
Note
The "Remember this device" option stores a secure cookie. You'll still need 2FA when logging in from new devices or browsers.
Backup Codes
Backup codes let you log in when you can't access your authenticator app:
- You receive 10 single-use backup codes when enabling 2FA
- Each code can only be used once
- Generate new codes at any time (this invalidates old ones)
- Store them securely - treat them like passwords
To generate new backup codes:
- 1Open Account Settings
- 2Go to Security
- 3Click Regenerate Backup Codes
- 4Save the new codes (old ones stop working immediately)
Disabling 2FA
- 1Open Account Settings
- 2Go to Security
- 3Click Disable Two-Factor Authentication
- 4Enter a code from your authenticator app to confirm
- 5Click Disable
Warning
Disabling 2FA makes your account less secure. Only disable it if you need to switch authenticator apps or devices.
Lost Access to Authenticator
If you can't access your authenticator app:
- 1Go to the login page and enter your email and password
- 2Click Use backup code on the 2FA screen
- 3Enter one of your saved backup codes
- 4Once logged in, disable 2FA and set it up again with your new device
Note
If you've also lost your backup codes, contact support. We'll need to verify your identity before resetting 2FA, which may take 24-48 hours.
Active Sessions
View and manage devices where you're currently logged in:
- 1Open Account Settings
- 2Go to Security
- 3Find the Active Sessions section
- 4Review the list of devices and locations
- 5Click Sign Out next to any session to end it
Tip
If you see a session you don't recognize, sign it out immediately and change your password. Consider enabling 2FA if you haven't already.
