## Change email and password settings

To change your email and password settings, select the **Preferences** tab.

Your email address is used to sign in to your account and receive any correspondence from Optimizely Experimentation. Your password must use at least **8 characters and a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols**.

**Note**

You may not reuse any of your **four most recent passwords** when changing your password. If you try to use a recent password, you will see an error message: *Password must not match a previously used password*.

To access certain Optimizely Experimentation features or file a support ticket, you may need to verify your email address. Optimizely Experimentation will send you an email when verification is necessary.

## Two-step verification

To enable or disable two-step verification, select the **Preferences** tab. Then, select the corresponding radio button to enable/disable two-step verification for your account.

Two-step verification increases the security of your Optimizely Experimentation account. When you sign in, you need a secure password and an identifier from your phone to access your account. See [Protect your account with individual two-step verification](docId:3l9O3s465SbH3-OB2yBB4).
