# Settings Overview

Settings is your central area for managing both your organisation's configuration and your personal account details for the Merchant Console. You can access it from the left-hand navigation under **Manage Console → Settings**.

The Settings area is divided into two primary sections: [**Organisational Settings**](#organisational-settings) and [**Account Details**](#account-details).

## Account Details

Account Details is the second section of Settings area, which contains your personal profile information and account preferences.&#x20;

Each user manages this section independently. Changes made here apply only to your own account.

Under **Account Details,** you can view and manage:

* **Profile** to view your name and email address associated with your account.
* **Password** to update your account password at any time. See [How to Change Your Password](https://docs.pay.io/account-settings/settings-overview/changing-my-password) for a step-by-step walkthrough.
* **Preferences** to configure your personal notification settings for key platform events. See [Managing Notifications](https://docs.pay.io/account-settings/managing-notifications) for full details.
