Some notifications are set as `required`. Whether these can be adjusted by the user is controlled by the administrator in the [WP admin area](https://disciple.tools/user-docs/getting-started-info/admin/).

### 1. Email Notifications

Notifications that are toggled on for `Email` will arrive in your email inbox. You can change this email address by editing your profile and changing your `System Email`.

### 2. Web Notifications

Notifications that are toggled on for `Web` will arrive within Disciple.Tools. A red number will appear by the Notification Bell
