Update your profile name
Your display name appears in notes you create, comments, and member lists in shared workspaces.
Add your ORCID iD
If you’re a researcher with an ORCID iD, saving it on your profile lets Bird answer “what have I published recently?” without you needing to share the iD each turn.
We only ever read your public ORCID profile — your name and the works you’ve listed publicly. We never access anything from your private ORCID record.
To remove a saved iD, clear the field and click Save. Bird will stop pulling your published works automatically.
Your ORCID iD is also part of the onboarding flow for new accounts. You can skip it during onboarding and add it later from Profile.
Update your workspace name
Workspace names are visible to all members of that workspace. Changing the name doesn’t affect any notes, collections, or member access.Change your email or password
Email and password changes are managed from Settings > Security. You’ll be asked to verify your current password before making changes.Privacy controls
Your privacy preferences are in Settings > Security > Privacy.Analytics cookies
You can control whether Bower collects anonymous usage data. The toggle in the Privacy section lets you enable or disable analytics cookies at any time. When you disable analytics, the page reloads to clear any tracking scripts that were already loaded. This is the same choice you made on the cookie consent banner when you first signed in — you can change it whenever you like. For details on what is and isn’t tracked, see the cookie policy.Export your data
Click Export in the Privacy section to download a JSON file containing all your personal data: your profile, workspace memberships, projects, artifacts, and audit history across all your workspaces. Data exports are rate-limited to one request per 24 hours.Session management
Sign out
Go to Settings > Security > Account Access and click Sign out to end your session on the current device. Other devices remain signed in.Revoke all sessions
If you suspect unauthorised access or have lost a device, click Revoke all in the Account Access section. This invalidates every active session across all devices immediately. You will be signed out and need to sign in again.Automatic idle timeout
Bower automatically signs you out after 30 minutes of inactivity. A warning appears 2 minutes before the timeout, giving you the option to stay signed in.Delete your account
To delete your account, go to Settings > Security > Danger Zone and click Delete my account. You’ll be asked to type “DELETE” to confirm. What gets deleted:- Your profile (email, name) and authentication record
- Your workspace memberships and OAuth integrations
- Workspaces where you are the sole member, including all content and files
- In shared workspaces, your notes, files, and collections are preserved for the team. Ownership is transferred to the workspace admin.
- Audit logs are anonymised — the record of actions is kept, but your identity is removed.
