### Resetting your Password

To reset your password, go to the [User Settings](/landexplorer-user-guide/functionality/user-settings.md) menu (see image above) and select [My Account](#my-account), then Password - Edit.  Alternatively, if you are logged into your [LandExplorer](https://app.landexplorer.coop) account you can [click here](https://app.landexplorer.coop/app/my-account/password) to go directly to the Reset Password page.

Reenter your new password twice and press Save Changes. Your password has now been updated.

### Privacy Settings

The **Privacy Settings** area allows you to manage whether analytics are turned on or off for your account. We use pseudonymous\* analytics to understand how people use [Land Explorer](https://app.landexplorer.coop/) and improve the service.

To update your analytics setting, go to [User Settings](/landexplorer-user-guide/functionality/user-settings.md) → My Account → Privacy Settings → Edit. Use the toggle switch to turn analytics on or off, then select Save Changes.

\*Pseudonymous means analytics data may be linked to an identifier, but not to your real name.

## My Maps

This will allow you to open any of the maps you have previously saved or that have been shared with you. This menu item will open a small popup from which you can choose which map you would like to open. Toggle between the My Maps and Shared Maps tabs to see all the maps you have access to. Note that you can also delete maps from this window using the rubbish bin icon.&#x20;
