# Update your SendWhale profile settings and preferences

> Update your name, email, photo, notification preferences, language, theme, and accessibility settings across your SendWhale account.

Your profile settings control how your account looks and behaves across all workspaces you belong to. From here you can update your personal information, choose how SendWhale notifies you, switch color themes, and adjust accessibility options to match your preferences.

## Profile information

Keep your name, email address, and profile photo up to date so teammates and workspace owners can identify you easily.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open profile settings">
    Sign in at [gosendwhale.com/login](https://www.gosendwhale.com/login), click your avatar in the top-right corner, and select **Profile**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Update your details">
    Edit your display name, email address, or profile photo. Changes to your email address may require a confirmation step — check your inbox after saving.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save your changes">
    Click **Save** to apply your updates immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Personal preferences

Adjust language, date format, and time format to match your locale and workflow.

* **Language** — select your preferred interface language.
* **Date format** — choose between formats such as MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY.
* **Time format** — switch between 12-hour and 24-hour display.

Save your preferences after making any changes. These settings apply only to your account and do not affect other members of your workspaces.

## Notifications

Choose which events trigger email or in-app notifications so your inbox stays relevant.

Navigate to **Profile → Notifications** to see all available notification categories. Toggle each category on or off to match your preferences. In-app notification settings control the bell icon alerts within the SendWhale dashboard; email notification settings control messages sent to your registered address.

## Theme

Switch between **Light** and **Dark** mode under **Profile → Theme**. Your theme preference is saved to your account and persists across devices and sessions.

## Accessibility

If you prefer reduced visual motion, enable **Reduce motion** under **Profile → Accessibility**. This setting minimizes animations and transitions throughout the interface, which can help users who experience discomfort with movement on screen.

<Note>
  Profile settings are personal and apply account-wide. Workspace-level settings — including brand configuration, member management, and integrations — are managed separately inside each individual workspace.
