General settings control application-wide notifications and account actions.

## Browser notifications

We recommend enabling browser notifications if you use Proliquid for [News](/features/crypto-news-feed-for-trading.md), [Screener](/features/crypto-screener-for-hyperliquid-traders.md), or Terminal fill alerts. The full alert model is documented in [Alerts](/features/alerts.md).

Proliquid uses two notification paths:

* If Proliquid is visible and the tab is active, alerts are shown inside the app.
* If Proliquid is hidden and another browser tab is active, supported alerts can be sent as system notifications.

Proliquid cannot send browser notifications when the page is not loaded in your browser.

## In-app duration

Use notification duration to control how long in-app notifications stay visible. Shorter durations keep the interface clean during active trading. Longer durations are useful when you want more time to read headlines or order-fill details.

## Sign out

Use Sign out to leave the current Proliquid account on this browser. Signing out does not close Hyperliquid positions or cancel orders. Review [Open orders](/terminal-sections/open-orders.md), [Open TWAPs](/terminal-sections/open-twaps.md), and [Open chases](/terminal-sections/open-chases.md) before leaving an active trading session.
