Looking for this interface?

Note:

Your hosting provider can enable or disable this interface in WHM's Feature Manager interface (WHM >> Home >> Packages >> Feature Manager).

Overview

Use this interface to change your account settings.

Consent and Privacy

This feature lets you opt in or out of Interface Analytics.

You can use the Account Type menu to specify whether your account is for an individual or a business. To change your account type, select an option from the Account Type menu and click Save Changes.

We automatically install the Interface Analytics plugin by default but do not enable it. The server owner and individual users must enable the Interface Analytics plugin before it begins to collect data. Data collection depends on the selections made at the server and account levels as follows:

Server level	Account level	Interface Analytics
Yes	Yes	Enabled
Yes	No	Disabled
No	Yes	Disabled
No	No	Disabled

To enable Interface Analytics, select the Allow Tracking checkbox. To disable Interface Analytics, clear the checkbox. Then, click Save Changes.

Contact Information

To update your contact information for account notifications and password reset confirmations, perform the following steps:

1. Enter an email address in the Primary Email Address textbox.
2. Enter an email address in the Secondary Email Address textbox. We recommend using email addresses from different servers to avoid delivery issues if your mailbox reaches its limit.
3. Enter the password for the cPanel account in the Account Password text box.
4. Click Save Changes.

Contact Preferences

You can select the notifications you would like to receive by email. The following settings let you get alerts when specific events occur:

Notification setting	Description
My contact email address changes. (The system will notify you at your current and previous contact email addresses.)	Send a notification to your current and previous contact email address when someone changes your contact address.
My preference for contact email address change notifications is disabled.	Send a notification when someone disables the My contact email address changes setting.
My account approaches its disk quota.	Send a notification if your website will soon reach the maximum amount of disk space. Note: If your website reaches its maximum amount of disk space, you cannot modify existing files or add new files to your website. To resolve this issue, delete old or unused files, or contact your hosting provider.
My account approaches its bandwidth usage limit.	Send a notification if your website will soon exceed the maximum amount of traffic. Note: This setting only appears if your hosting provider limits the bandwidth usage for your cPanel account and enables bandwidth notifications. After you reach your maximum bandwidth, visitors cannot access your website. To resolve this issue, you must upgrade your hosting plan. Otherwise, you must wait until the limit resets. Generally, this limit resets at the end of each month.
SSL certificate expiry. (The system will notify you if a non-AutoSSL certificate will expire soon.)	Send a notification if a non-AutoSSL certificate will expire soon.
Any of my account’s email accounts approaches or is over quota.	Send a notification if one of your email addresses will soon reach its maximum amount of disk space. Note: To resolve this issue, delete old email or contact your hosting provider.
My account’s password changes. (The system will notify you when the password changes because of a user request.)	Send a notification if someone changed your account password.
My preference for account password change notifications is disabled.	Send a notification if someone disabled the My account’s password changes setting.
Someone logs in to my account.	Send a notification when someone logs in to your account. This is useful if you suspect that someone else has your account password. Note: To resolve this issue, change your account password to a more secure password. In order to use this setting, your system administrator or hosting provider must enable cPHulk in WHM’s cPHulk Brute Force Protection interface (WHM » Home » Security Center » cPHulk Brute Force Protection). Logins from IP addresses in the cPHulk Brute Force Protection interface’s whitelists will not send notifications. The system only sends a single notice in each 24-hour window for a specific username, service, and IP address combination. The system will not send notices if the user logs in successfully through an IP address range or netblock from which a user previously successfully logged in. To enable these notices, select the next setting.
Send login notifications, even when the user logs in from an IP address range or netblock that contains an IP address from which a user successfully logged in previously.	Send a notification whenever someone logs in to your account successfully through any IP address.
My preference for successful login notifications is disabled.	Send a notification if someone disables the Someone logs in to my account setting.
An external account links to my account for authentication.	Send a notification when someone links your account to an external authentication provider.
My preference for external account link notifications is disabled.	Send a notification if someone disabled the An external account links to my account for authentication setting.

You can select one of the following settings in the AutoSSL Notifications section of the interface:

• All AutoSSL events: failures, deferrals, and successful installations. — This setting notifies you for AutoSSL certificate request successes, failures, warnings, and deferrals.

• AutoSSL failures and deferrals only. (default) — This setting only notifies you about AutoSSL certificate request failures, warnings, and deferrals.

• AutoSSL failures only. — This setting only notifies you when AutoSSL certificate requests fail.

• Disable AutoSSL event notifications. — This setting disables all AutoSSL certificate request notifications.

Password Generator

This feature generates secure passwords, which are difficult for malicious users to guess. When you click Generate, a generated password will appear in the text box. To set the security requirements of the new password, click the up arrow (). New options will appear that allow you to set password length and whether to use uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.
