# Personal Settings
Lets start from looking at what can you setup and customize on your cloud account. Click on your name/avatar and choose **"Personal"** settings
![](main_personal.png)
The settings are divided into sections. You can use quick links on the left-sidebar to get to them easily.
###Personal Info
## Personal Info
Personal Info is the place where you can add various information about yourself, which then you can choose to share with others. You can additionally choose the access level you want this information to be "shared".

- **Public** - means the data will be sent to global address book (it can be viewed by anyone)

###Groups and language
## Groups and language
Below you can see to which **groups** you belong to if any (by default disroot accounts are not associated with any group), and you can change your preferred language.
###Sessions
## Sessions
Here you can see how many devices are currently connected to your account. If you see devices connected to your account that shouldn't be connected, it might mean your account has been compromised and you should proceed to change your password. *(Keep in mind every browser, mobile, computer etc. will be shown as separate device each time you change your network for example, so do not freak out at first, and really double check everything, before you go full on paranoid mode)*.
###Activity
## Activity
In activity section you can decide how you want to be informed about events going on on your cloud. You can choose between getting mail notification and / or being notified in the Activity stream (link that part of tutor) or even choose not to get notified at all. You can decide to have your email notifications sent to you on: Hourly, Daily or weekly basis.

###Basic encryption module
## Basic encryption module
Here you can decide whether or not an administrator will be able to recover your files in case you loose your password. This option is disabled by default as it enables admins of disroot to decrypt and view your files. **Enabling this option after your password was lost will not recover your files!** You need to make this decision beforehand. **We strongly encourage you to never loose your password in the first place and keep it stored safe.** This is the best way to keep your files and your account safe.

### Federated cloud
## Federated cloud
What is federated cloud? Just like emails that can be send between users on different servers (gmail, riseup, disroot etc) also nextcloud gives you opportunity to share files, contacts, calendars etc. with people outside of disroot that also use similar cloud solution (owncloud and / or nextcloud). This gives the freedom to the users to use platform of their choice while being able to collaborate with each other. In this section you can see your federation ID, you can share it with others by just sending a link or via predefined platforms (to which you can add your preferred ones that are not included).

### Spreed video calls
## Spreed video calls
Unless you have access to your personal TURN Server, you should **leave this fields blank**. This option is for setting up a service that helps determine you IP address when you are using "calls" app for audio/video conferencing in disroot. By default all disroot accounts are using disroot's TURN Server.

# Working with Pads and Calcs in nextcloud
Etherpad and Ethercalc are collaborative applications for multi-user real-time document edition. You can reach them directly from your browser at: https://pad.disroot.org1 and https://calc.disroot.org1 No user account is needed to make use of them. However our cloud comes with very handy plugin that helps you keep track of all your pads, just as if they are one of your files.
**Note!** "Pads" and "calcs" aren't files containing your data but are links to your work stored on either https://pad.disroot.org or https://calc.disroot.org.
## Idea behind pads
# Idea behind pads
The idea behind this software is very simple. It's a text/spreadsheet editor that lives in the web. Everything you type in gets written to your pad automatically. You can work on a document with multiple people at the same time without a need to save and pass copies of the documents to each other. Once your work is done, you can export the pad to a format of your choice. To read more of the general guide through the interface you can check this page ( page under construction).
## Usage
# Usage
Below you can read how to make use of ownpad - a plugin for disroot cloud instance.
## Creating new pads
# Creating new pads
Creating new pad works the same as creating new file. Click on "+" icon and choose to create either pad (text editor) or calc (spreadsheet). Once you give it a name a new file with .pad/.calc extension will be created. You can move, share that file just like any other file you have on your cloud account.
![](pads_add.gif)
## Opening new pad
# Opening new pad
To open the newly created pad, just click on it's name. The application will open up your pad using pad.disroot.org/calc.disroot.org within the cloud interface. You can now easily work on your document and once you're done, use the red icon on your right to close it. All changes are written the moment you start typing so there is no need to save the file before hand. Since the file lives in the web, you can come back to it any time you want.
![](pads_inapp_name.gif)
## Sharing
# Sharing
Sharing pads with other disroot users is the same as sharing normal files. Click on "sharing" icon and select with whom you want to share the file with. Note using public link will not work as easy since this are not normal files.
![](pads_inapp_name2.gif)
In order to share with someone outside disroot cloud, you should share the actual link to the pad. You can do it by opening your pad in the browser and hovering above it's name. You will see the actual link to the pad, which you can then copy and send it to anyone you wish to share the pad with.
## Deleting pads
# Deleting pads
It is impossible to delete pads. Once created they stay online. In fact anyone who could guess the url could look it up. That's why disroot cloud's plugin creates links to your pads using random strings instead of the name you specify when creating the file. In that way the links to the pads are impossible to guess making them safe from anyone but you and users you share the pads with.
