In this article, you'll learn about the Account Information section of your KSAT account settings. In the Account Information section, you can review your subscription details, update your privacy settings, update your organization’s information, and more.

Account Privacy
In the Account Privacy section, you can check if KnowBe4 agents have access to your account and change your privacy settings to your liking.
To change your account privacy settings, click the Allow KnowBe4 agents to access this account drop-down menu. To temporarily grant access to your account, select your preferred time period from the drop-down menu. We recommend that you select Allow continual access to allow KnowBe4 agents to access your account. Granting access to KnowBe4 agents allows us to access your account and assist you if you experience technical issues in your account.
The blue banner at the top of the section displays the expiry date of the account access. Once the access expires, your setting will be automatically updated to Do not allow access.
If you select Do not allow access, our support team will not be able to access your account. If you don’t allow access, you may experience some delays if our support team needs to view your account to help solve a technical issue.
