Manage your notifications
Notifications in your account settings controls the emails Goose sends you. Open your account settings from your profile menu in the top right, then select Notifications. Notifications inside Goose are always on and cannot be turned off. This page is only about email.
What is on the page
Two rows are locked on.
- Billing and account alerts tell you about things like a payment that did not go through. You cannot opt out of those.
- Goose Announcements go to everyone on the platform.
Below those, you have one row for each discussion group you belong to. Join a group and its row appears, switched on. Leave a group and the row goes with it.
There is no save button. A change takes effect as soon as you make it.
What happens when you turn a group off
Turning off a group stops the emails about activities you are not part of.
You will still get an email when someone comments on your post, replies to your comment, or tags you, whatever that switch says. Likes never send an email.
If you want to leave a particular conversation, use the unsubscribe control on that post rather than turning off the whole group.
Frequently asked questions
I turned off a group, but I am still getting emails from it.
Those are most likely replies to something you wrote, or a post where someone tagged you. Those always send. Everything else in that group has stopped.
I rejoined a group, and my setting came back on.
Rejoining counts as a fresh start, so the group goes back to its default of On. Turn it off again if you would rather not receive notices from that group.
I do not belong to any groups yet.
You will see the two locked rows and nothing else. Group rows appear once you join a group.
What about the marketing emails from Q4i?
Those are separate and are not controlled here. Use the unsubscribe link at the bottom of one of those emails to manage your subscriptions.
