Trusted Locations for 2FA

When you successfully log in from a device, your location is added to your list of trusted locations. When you log in from a trusted location, you can use your username and password without a verification code, as Paligo knows you have verified that location before.

Your "trusted locations" are listed in your user profile. You can view them there, and if necessary, you can remove them too. For example, if you think a login looks suspicious because it is from a location you do not recognize, you can delete the location.

To see the "trusted locations" that are associated with your user account:

  1. Select the avatar in the top right corner. User avatar. It shows the user's image and their name. Next to the name is a downward pointing arrow, which when selected, reveals a menu.

  2. Select My Profile. My_Profile.jpg
