# Manage Email Notification Preferences

Learn how to use Notification Management to control which CleverTap email alerts you receive.

# Overview

CleverTap notifies you about activities in your account, such as when a campaign report is ready, a teammate shares a segment with you, your plan changes, or an outage occurs. Notification Management allows you to decide which of these actually land in your inbox. Unsubscribe from categories for which you do not require notifications.

  ### Mandatory Notifications
