How to change your account settings

You change the settings of your Vieolo account in the "Settings" of your profile. The settings have four tabs: "Personal details" for your name, "Preferences" for your language and formats, "Security and privacy" for your password and invitations, and "Account" for deleting your account. These settings only affect you, not the workspaces you are a member of.

Personal details

The "Personal details" tab holds the name of your account. Your name is shown to the members of the workspaces you join.

Workspace owners can keep their own record of your name and contact details for their workspace. If they do, the workspace uses their record, and changing your account name does not change it.

Preferences

The "Preferences" tab holds your country, language, currency, date format, time format, and first day of the week. They decide how Vieolo is displayed to you, on every device.

Your account preferences are also used as the starting values when you create a new workspace. After that, each workspace keeps its own preferences:

• Account preferences decide what you see. For example, if your account language is English, the interface is in English.
• Workspace preferences decide how the workspace communicates. For example, if the workspace language is German, the emails the workspace sends, such as those to its share targets, are in German, even though you see the interface in English.

To change the preferences of a workspace, edit the workspace. Read more in Create a workspace.

Security and privacy

The "Security and privacy" tab has two options:

• "Block new workspace invitations": turn this on if you don't want to receive any new invitations to workspaces. Invitations you have already received are not affected.
• "Change password": change the password of your account. Read more in Sign-in methods and passwords.

Account

The "Account" tab holds "Delete your account". Before you delete your account, read Delete your account, as you may need to take care of the workspaces you own first.
