title: System Settings
---
These settings are similar to the configuration options listed [here](../installation/configuration.mdx), however they can only be adjusted through the authentik Admin interface or API.
### Avatars
Configure how authentik should show avatars for users. Following values can be set:
Default: `gravatar,initials`
- `none`: Disables per-user avatars and just shows a 1x1 pixel transparent picture
- `gravatar`: Uses gravatar with the user's email address
- `initials`: Generated avatars based on the user's name
- Any URL: If you want to use images hosted on another server, you can set any URL.
Additionally, these placeholders can be used:
- `%(username)s`: The user's username
- `%(mail_hash)s`: The email address, md5 hashed
- `%(upn)s`: The user's UPN, if set (otherwise an empty string)
You can also use an attribute path like `attributes.something.avatar`, which can be used in combination with the file field to allow users to upload custom avatars for themselves.
Multiple modes can be set, and authentik will fallback to the next mode when no avatar could be found. For example, setting this to `gravatar,initials` will attempt to get an avatar from Gravatar, and if the user has not configured on there, it will fallback to a generated avatar.
### Allow users to change name
Enable the ability for users to change their name, defaults to `true`.
### Allow users to change email
Enable the ability for users to change their Email address, defaults to `false`.
### Allow users to change username
Enable the ability for users to change their Usernames, defaults to `false`.
### Event retention
Configure how long [Events](../events/index.md) are retained for within authentik. Default value is `days=365`. When forwarding events to an external application, this value can be decreased. When changing this value, only new events are affected.
### Footer links
This option configures the footer links on the flow executor pages.
The setting can be used as follows:
```json
[{ "name": "Link Name", "href": "https://goauthentik.io" }]
```
### GDPR compliance
When enabled, all the events caused by a user will be deleted upon the user's deletion. Defaults to `true`.
### Impersonation
Globally enable/disable impersonation. Defaults to `true`.
