How do I change my password?
To change the password associated with your account, follow the steps below:
Click on 'Profile' in the top banner.
Select 'Change my password' from the related actions.
Enter your current password and your new password and save your changes.
To make your password more secure, you should include:
- a combination of three or more unrelated words
