FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

I have forgotten my password, what do I do?

 

 1. You can use the password recovery feature to retrieve your password. Go to the home page and click on "Forgot Password" in the gray login box in the upper right corner. This will allow you to retrieve the lost password. This option is the quickest way to retrieve your password.

2. If for some reason you are unable to retrieve your password using #1 (ex. you no longer have access to the email address  used when creating your profile) you can use the "contact us" feature at the top of the home page and we can do a password reset for you. You can then change your passwod once you log on using the "change password" feature located on the left of the screen.

 NOTE: Using #2 will not be as immediate response as #1. Please allow up to 24hrs for a response using the “contact us” feature. I will respond as  quickly as I am able to.
