# Account & security

> Manage your personal account: profile, language, password, sessions, connected logins.

Your TryPost account is separate from your workspaces — one user can belong to many workspaces, and personal account settings live under **Settings > Profile** and **Settings > Authentication**.

## Profile

**Settings > Profile** lets you update:

| Field             | Notes                                                                                                |
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**          | Display name shown to teammates and on comments                                                      |
| **Email**         | Used for login and notifications. Changing it triggers a re-verification email.                      |
| **Profile photo** | Upload from your machine. Stored on the configured filesystem (same as post media).                  |
| **Language**      | `en`, `pt-BR`, or `es`. Sets the dashboard UI language; persisted as a cookie + on your user record. |

You can also delete your account from this page — see [Deleting your account](#deleting-your-account) below.

## Authentication

**Settings > Authentication** is the single page for everything sign-in related.

### Password

* If you signed up with email/password, you can change it here.
* If you signed up with Google or GitHub and never set a password, the page shows a "Set password" form instead. Setting one lets you log in either way.

### Active sessions

Every device or browser you've signed in from shows up as a session, with IP address, last-active timestamp, browser/OS, and a marker on the current session. Click **Sign out other devices** to invalidate every session except this one — useful if you suspect a leaked credential.

This calls `DELETE /settings/authentication/sessions` and forces re-login on every other device.

### Connected accounts

You can link or unlink third-party logins here:

* **Google** — available on Cloud; self-hosted needs `GOOGLE_AUTH_ENABLED=true` plus `GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID` / `GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET` / `GOOGLE_AUTH_CALLBACK`
* **GitHub** — available on Cloud; self-hosted needs `GITHUB_AUTH_ENABLED=true` plus `GITHUB_CLIENT_ID` / `GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET` / `GITHUB_AUTH_CALLBACK`

Unlinking is blocked if it would leave you with no way to sign in (e.g. you have no password set and only one provider is linked).

### Email verification

New accounts must verify their email before scheduling posts. The signup flow sends a verification link automatically. To resend, hit **Resend verification email** on the banner shown on every page until you verify.

## Deleting your account

From **Settings > Profile**, scroll to the danger zone. Account deletion is **immediate and irreversible**:

* Removes your user record
* Cancels any subscription on your account (Cloud)
* Deletes workspaces you own (along with their posts, accounts, signatures, labels) — workspaces you only belong to as admin/member are unaffected; you're just removed from them
* Disconnects your social accounts on TryPost's side. Posts already published to social platforms are unaffected — TryPost has no way to retract them.

You'll be asked to type your password (or "DELETE", if your account only signs in via Google or GitHub) to confirm.

## Notifications

See [Notifications](/knowledge-base/notifications) for the dedicated page on how alerts work and what you can toggle.
