Settings — Your Account & Preferences
The Settings page is where you manage your account, appearance, security, privacy, and integrations. It's laid out as a set of simple cards, one per topic, so everything is easy to find. You need to be signed in to see it — if you're not, the app sends you to the home page.
Appearance
Switch the app between Light and Dark mode with the two buttons in the Appearance card. The button for your current theme is highlighted, so you can always tell which mode you're in. Pick whichever is easier on your eyes — the choice applies across the app.
Account
The Account card shows the email address you're signed in with, under the label "Signed in as". Below it is a Sign out button.
- Use it when you're done working on this device — especially if it's a shared one.
- Signing out is immediate; you'll need to sign in again the next time you want to use the app.
Security
The Security card contains an Activity History button, which takes you to a page where you can review what has happened on your account. It's the place to check for anything you don't recognize.
Privacy & Data
The Privacy & Data card explains itself: "Manage your data export, retention preferences, and privacy settings."
Use the Manage Privacy Settings button to get there. This is where you control what happens to your data, including:
- Exporting your data.
- Setting your retention preferences.
- Managing privacy settings.
Integrations
The Integrations card is for connecting external services: "Configure webhooks and API access for external service integrations."
Use the Webhooks & API button to set those up — for example, if you want another system to receive events from your account.
Danger Zone
The last card on the page is the Danger Zone, and it deserves the red border it gets. The card spells out the consequences in full:
- Delete Account permanently deletes your account and all associated data. This cannot be undone.
- You'll be asked to confirm your choice before you're taken to the deletion flow.
- One thing to know before you do: per IT Rules 2021, some registration data is retained for 180 days even after deletion.
A few common questions
- Where do I change the theme? The Appearance card at the top of the page — Light and Dark buttons.
- Where do I see what's been done to my account? Security → Activity History.
- Where do I export or delete my data? Privacy & Data → Manage Privacy Settings.
- Where do I connect external services? Integrations → Webhooks & API.
- Where do I delete my account? The Danger Zone at the bottom — read the warnings first. Deleting shows a confirmation prompt first, and only then takes you to the deletion page.
- Is the dark mode choice remembered? The theme buttons highlight whichever mode is active, and the choice applies across the app.
Good to know
- Anything privacy-related — export, retention, deletion — lives in the Privacy & Data section, so you don't have to hunt for it.
- If you ever decide to delete your account, the confirm prompt is your last chance to change your mind — after that, there's no going back.
- The rest of your account management — like your candidate profile — lives on the Profile page.
- There is no separate page per card: everything on this page is on one screen, so you can review Appearance, Account, Security, Privacy & Data, Integrations, and the Danger Zone without navigating between tabs.
- Signing out is the only way to leave this session from the Settings page; the Activity History page is where you can see a record of past account activity.
