# Account settings, password, deletion

Your account settings live under the user menu (top-right on web, profile tab on iOS).

## Profile

- **Name** — your display name. Shown on your storefront and on any comments you post.
- **Email** — your login. Changing email requires re-verifying the new address.
- **Avatar** — optional profile picture, shown on storefront and comments.

## Password

If you signed up with email/password:

- Change password from the settings page; you'll be asked for the old one for security.
- Forgot it? On the login page, click **Forgot password**. We send a reset link to your email. The link is single-use and expires.

If you signed up with Google or Apple, there's no separate ComicInk password — sign in via the OAuth provider you used originally.

## Language preference

Your account language controls:

- The UI language (sidebar, buttons, dialogs)
- The default language for new series and issues you create

Change it from settings. The 10 supported languages are: English, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, French, Portuguese (Brazil), German, Hindi, Italian, and Turkish.

Existing series and issues keep their original language regardless of your preference change.

## Notification preferences

Configure email notifications for:

- Image generation completions (when a long-running generation finishes)
- Collaboration invites
- Out-of-credits alerts
- Storefront sales (if you have a storefront)

iOS users also receive push notifications by default; manage those in iOS Settings → Notifications → ComicInk.

## Referral program

Each account gets a personal referral link. Share it; when someone signs up via your link, you earn credits.

**How much you earn per referral:**

You earn **100 credits** for each friend who signs up with your link, up to **2 friends**. After 2 successful referrals, the program is closed for that account.

The cap keeps the program oriented toward genuine word-of-mouth rather than growth-hacking. If you'd like to share ComicInk more broadly after that, [creator storefronts](https://help.comicink.ai/en/article/setting-up-your-storefront-zgj7lo/) are a better fit.

**The person you referred** does not get a special bonus — they get the standard free signup credits like any new user (see [how credits work](https://help.comicink.ai/en/article/how-credits-work-1m9t59m/)).

To find your referral link: sidebar → **Refer & Earn**. Copy the link or the short code (`?ref=ABC123`) and share.

## Account deletion

Deleting your account is **irreversible**. It removes:

- Your profile
- All your series, issues, pages, panels
- All your characters, worlds, assets
- Your storefront (if any)
- Your credit balance
- Your referral history

Stripe Connect payout history stays in Stripe regardless — only your ComicInk account is removed.

**Before you delete**:

- Export anything you want to keep (right-click and save published images).
- Make sure you've drawn down any credit pack you bought — refunds for unused credits aren't issued on account deletion.
- If you have an active storefront with pending payouts, complete those first.

To delete: settings → **Delete account**. You'll be asked to confirm via your email.
