Last updated Apr 20, 2026|Copy as Markdown| [View as Markdown](https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/account/account-security/abuse-contact/index.md)| [Agent setup](https://developers.cloudflare.com/agent-setup/)

Enter an abuse contact email address to ensure you are receiving communications regarding potential abuse on your websites.

To update your abuse contact email address:

1. Log into the [Cloudflare dashboard ↗︎](https://dash.cloudflare.com) and select your account.
2. Go to **Manage Account** > **Configurations**.
3. For **Abuse report contact email address**, select **Change email address**.
4. Enter and confirm your new email and select **Save**.

If you choose not to provide an abuse contact email address, communication about abuse will be directed to one of the Super Administrators on your account.
