+[[toc]]

+
+The [email](#changing-email-and-account-details) and [password](#changing-password) can be changed anytime through the <DashboardShortLink />.
+
+It is not possible to change the username. If you wish to use a different username, follow [these steps](#changing-mergin-maps-username).
+
+## Changing email and account details
+
+1. Log in to <AppDomainNameLink />. 
+
+   In the upper right corner of the screen, click on your username and go to **Your profile**.

+## Changing Mergin Maps username
+
+The username cannot be changed. If you need to use a different username, you will have to create a new account.
+
+**If you are a contributor to a workspace, but do not own a workspace:**
+1. Create a new <MainPlatformName /> account with the username of your choice
+2. Make a list of workspaces/projects you have access to with your original account
+3. Notify the *admins* or *owners* of the relevant workspaces about this change.
+   They will have to [share the workspace or projects](../project-advanced/#share-projects-and-manage-user-access) with your new account.
+4. Now your original account can be [deleted](#deleting-mergin-maps-account)
+
+**If you own a workspace:**
+1. Create a new <MainPlatformName /> account with the username of your choice
+2. [Transfer the ownership](../permissions/#how-to-transfer-ownership-of-a-workspace) of your workspace(s) to the new account and, if needed, [update the billing information](../subscriptions/#billing-information-and-payment-method)
+3. Now you can [delete](#deleting-mergin-maps-account) the original account
+
+::: tip Re-using email
+The same email cannot be used for multiple accounts. If you want to reuse the same email that you have used in your original account, you will have to [close](#deleting-mergin-maps-account) it and wait until it is deleted. Deleted accounts are kept on <MainPlatformName /> servers for 5 days before they are deleted permanently.
+
+To speed up the process, you can contact <MerginMapsEmail id="support" /> and ask them to delete your account so you can use the same email immediately.
