## FAQ

**Q: I turned off emails but still received a password reset link?**
A: System-critical emails (like password resets and invoice receipts) cannot be disabled. They bypass your preferences to ensure you never lose access to your account.

**Q: Why are the checkboxes grayed out?**
A: If a Global Channel is turned off, its detailed settings are disabled. Turn on the Global Channel first to edit them.
