# Settings

Find provider-specific settings by clicking on the user icon in the upper right-hand corner of the site and choosing: *Account Settings*. Or visit: <https://app.octoo.com/profile>.

Specific settings are available for each **partner** an account is linked with: these include [agreements](/general/agreements.md), [qualifications](/partners/qualifications.md), payment information, and [topic preferences](/providers/topic-preferences.md).

### On-site Locations

As a provider, there are two different types of locations our system relies on for on-site requests: **departure locations** and **job radius**. As a provider you need to have one of each defined. If you need to change an address, add the new location first before removing the old one.

You can update these by visiting: <https://app.octoo.com/profile/locations>.

A **departure location** establishes the place you are departing from for on-site requests. It is used when calculating your estimated mileage to and from requests. At least one departure location is required for providers. You can define more than one if you have multiple residences and our application will rely on the closed location to the request when calculating estimated mileage.

A **job radius** defines the area you would like to be notified about on-site requests. You can expand or narrow the radius of this area (and create different areas if a single circle doesn't encompass where you would like to travel to). If you are receiving jobs from locations that you do not want to travel to simply adjust this area of your preferences.

### Availability

You can communicate your availability with the Octoo platform in two different ways: by defining either ongoing **weekly availability** or via specific **away** periods. Read more in the [availability section](#availability).

### Notifications

Some types of **notifications** you can choose to opt-out of if you no longer wish to recieve emails. You can change those settings in this section.
