# Getting Started
# Creating your account
If you’re a first time user, the first step is to register your details and create an account.
Once you register, confirm your registration by clicking the link in the confirmation email. Check your spam / junk folder if you can’t find the confirmation email.
You can edit your account profile, such as the name, email and password, by navigating to your account icon and selecting 'Account Settings'.
Things to keep in mind:
- Registration sits with the individual email address used to create the account
- Projects sit within individual accounts. Projects cannot be shared between accounts
- Only the people with access to the account can modify the projects within that account.
- You cannot copy or delete an account. If you would like your account deleted, contact the BESS team (opens new window)
