Organization Settings is where you set how your organization is identified across Apptonomy and control the destructive actions that live in the Danger Zone. Open it from **Settings** in the organization menu.

## Before you start

- You need to be the **Owner** or a **Manager** to edit organization settings.
- The **Danger Zone** (organization deletion) is reserved for the Owner; only the Owner can use it.

## Edit the basics

### 1. Enter edit mode

On the **Settings** page, click **Edit Settings**. The name, timezone, icon, and engine-improvements fields become editable.

### 2. Set the organization name

Type into **Organization Name**. This is the name teammates and invitations see.

### 3. Set the timezone

Use the **Timezone** search box to find your zone by city or offset. The timezone determines when scheduled audits run and how dates are shown for your organization.

### 4. Upload an icon

Under **Organization Icon**, click **Upload Icon** (or **Change Icon** to replace an existing one). The image must be:

- **PNG or JPEG**
- **Square** (equal width and height)
- **At most 1024×1024 pixels**

Apptonomy resizes the image to 256×256 for display. To clear an icon, click **Remove Icon**.

### 5. Save

Click **Save Changes**. To back out without saving, click **Cancel** — that discards edits to the name, timezone, icon, and consent toggle.

## Engine improvements

The **Engine improvements** toggle controls whether your organization contributes anonymized telemetry that helps improve Apptonomy's engines. The telemetry is limited to anonymized dismissal patterns, structured reasons, and redacted memos — raw app names are not collected.

- On paid plans below Enterprise, this is **on by default** until you change it.
- On **Enterprise**, it's **off by default** until you change it.
- Until your billing plan finishes loading, the toggle reads as off.

Switch it off any time to opt out, or on to opt in. **Learn more** links to the Terms of Service.

## Verify it worked

After you save, the page leaves edit mode and shows your updated name, timezone, and icon. The read-only **Organization ID** field near the bottom is your organization's stable identifier — useful when contacting support.

## Danger Zone

The **Danger Zone** holds irreversible organization-level actions and is only reachable by the owner.

### Delete organization

Permanently deletes the organization and everything in it — all projects and audits immediately, all members and pending invitations, and, if you have an active subscription, it cancels that subscription (it won't renew, and the current period isn't prorated). To confirm, type `DELETE <your organization name>` exactly into the confirmation box, then click **Delete Organization**. If you have an active subscription, a short exit survey appears first.

:::caution[Deletion cannot be undone]
There is no recovery after deletion. Export anything you need first.

### Transfer ownership

Changing the owner isn't available in the app yet; contact support if you need to change the account owner.
