Managing your personal account
------------------------------
Each logged in user has several options to provided through the AlekSIS
core. Which of these items are display depends on whether the user has a
person and what your system administrator has configured.
.. _sec:Notifications:
Notifications
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The AlekSIS core has a built-in notification system which can be used by
apps to send urgent information to specific persons (e. g. timetable
changes). Notifications are shown on the dashboard and the notifications
page reachable over the menu entry ``Notifications``. In addition to
that, notifications can be sent to users through several communication
channels. These channels can be switched on or off in your personal
preferences (cf. [@sec:PersonalPreferences]).

Change password
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If your system administrator has activated this function, you can change
your password via ``Account → Change password``. If you forgot your
password, there is a link ``Password forgotten?`` on this page which
helps with resetting your password. The system then will send you a
password reset link via email.
Me page

Reachable under ``Account → Me``, this page shows the personal
information saved about you in the system. If activated, you can upload
a picture of yourself or edit some information.
.. _sec:PersonalPreferences:
Personal preferences

You can configure some behavior using the preferences under
``Account → Preferences``. By default, the Core only provides some
preferences, but apps can extend this list. You can find further
information about such preferences in the chapter of the respective
