# Privacy and Security

**Location:** Settings → Privacy & security

Manage your account security settings, including password management and email verification.

#### Security

Control your account authentication and verification settings.

**Change Password**

Update your account password to maintain security. Password changes log you out of all active sessions, requiring you to re-authenticate on all devices.

**To change your password:**

1. Navigate to **Privacy & security**
2. Click **Send Reset Email** in the Change Password section
3. Check your email for the password reset link
4. Follow the instructions in the email to set a new password
5. Log back in with your new credentials

**Password requirements:**

* Minimum 12 characters
* Use a strong, unique password not used on other services
* Consider using a password manager to generate and store secure passwords

After changing your password, you'll need to log in again on all devices where you access Alludium.

**Email Verification**

Email verification confirms that you control the email address associated with your account. A verified email is required for:

* Account security and recovery
* Receiving important notifications
* Workspace invitations and communications

**Verification status:**

When your email is verified, you'll see a green checkmark with the message "Your email is verified."

If your email is not verified, you'll see an option to resend the verification email. Check your inbox (and spam folder) for the verification message and click the link to complete verification.

**If you change your email address:** The new email address will require verification. You'll receive a verification email at the new address. Your account remains accessible, but certain features may be limited until verification is complete.

#### Security Best Practices

**For account security:**

* Change your password immediately if you suspect unauthorized access
* Keep your email account secure—it's the recovery method for your Alludium account
* Review active sessions regularly in workspace settings
* Report suspected security issues through your designated support channel

**If you suspect unauthorized access:**

1. Change your password immediately using the Send Reset Email option
2. Review your account activity and recent logins
3. Contact <support@alludium.ai> to report the incident
4. Review and revoke any unrecognized active sessions
