# Edit email subscriptions
We aim to keep you well-informed. You’ll receive **relevant** updates based on your **email subscriptions**. However, some content may not apply to you, or you might prefer not to receive updates at all. You can adjust your preferences anytime in the **Things Portal**.
To change email subscriptions, you need to have a **Things Manager** role.
{% hint style="warning" %}
**Changing mail subscriptions is not available for Freemium and Explorer users.**\
If there are issues with the KPN Things Portal, Explorer customers will always be informed by email.
