What is a contact email address and how do I change it?
Pikum! sends all email notifications to your contact email address. Occasionally, Pikum! may need to send important updates to you, so it is critical that this information stays up to date. To edit your contact email address, simply go to the "My Settings" tab of the My Account page. If you enter a new address, you will have to confirm that you have access to that email address before we accept it as your contact email. As soon as you enter the new address and save changes, we will send a confirmation link to that address. Clicking on the link confirms the contact and completes the process.
