How to customize settings for your new account
When you create a new Twitter account, you’ll want to customize your Twitter settings and profile. Depending on your country, and the information you provided when you created your account, you may also wish to adjust your settings to get the most from your experience.
Customize your Twitter settings
Control your discoverability, and let your phone or email contacts find you.
Often the best connections on Twitter are with people you already know. In order to help you make those connections, Twitter may use your email address or phone number to help others find your account. You can turn this Twitter setting on or off by accessing your email, and phone number discoverability privacy settings.
Receive email about your Twitter activity and recommendations
Twitter is where you can see what’s happening in the world right now. In order to keep you informed about activity related to your new Twitter account, and provide recommendations of what’s most relevant or popular in the moment, Twitter may send you emails. Unsubscribe from these emails at any time by updating the email preferences in your Twitter settings.
Receive personalized ads based on your activity off Twitter
Twitter works with ads partners and affiliates to bring you more useful and interesting ads on and off Twitter. Twitter’s ad partners and affiliates share information directly with us, and may integrate our advertising technology to enable Twitter to collect similar information directly from their websites or apps. Your personalized ads setting controls whether Twitter uses this data to show you interest-based advertising on and off Twitter, and also controls whether Twitter will use data about your activity on Twitter to show you interest-based advertising off Twitter. Learn more about your privacy controls of personalized ads.
After you finish creating your new account, you can always review and modify these and other settings through your account settings, available on twitter.com, Twitter for iOS, and Twitter for Android.
