There are several areas on the RadioYo site where you can shape your RadioYo experience. Many of the most important can be found by clicking on the "Settings" link in the upper right hand of the home page. The "Settings" page is divided into two main parts: the Account section and the Settings section.

The "Account" section includes the following items:
  • Information about your account including your account type and the start and end dates of your premium subscription (if you are a subscriber).
  • Links to additional resources regarding premium subscriptions:
  • "Premium Feature overview".
  • "View Purchase History".
  • "Compare Account Types".
  • Summaries of Introductions available to you.
  • Details about your available InMails including a link to your InMail Feedback Score, the date of your next InMail grant, and a link to purchase additional InMails at $10 per message.
Paid Subscribers may also see:
  • Status on whether you've opted in or out of receiving OpenLink messages, with a link to a page where you can change this setting.
  • Your OpenLink Network membership status, with a link to change this setting.
  • The number of Job Credits you have available, with a link to post a job.
The "Settings" section provides links to various settings pages and describes the current status of some of these settings. These links and descriptions are grouped under some of the following main headings:
  • Profile Settings - Allows you to manage profile information, profile photo visibility, public profile information, status visibility and member feed visibility.
  • Email Notifications - Allows you to manage contact settings, how you want to receive messages, notifications and Invitations.
  • Home Page Settings - Allows you to manage Network updates and News on your home page.
  • RSS Settings - Allows you to enable or disable your private RSS feeds.
  • Groups - Allows you to control Invitations from Groups.
  • Network Updates - Allows you to show which type of Network Updates you'd like to see and control how many you want to show on your home page.
  • Personal Information - Allows you to manage your name, location, display name, account holder icon settings, email addresses, passwords and a link to close your account.
  • Privacy Settings - Allows you to manage settings for research surveys, connections list visibility, profile views, turn on/off ability to see another members profile picture, profile and status updates, service provider directory, partner advertising, and authorized applications.
  • My Network - Allows you to tell us how you want to use your RadioYo network.
Below are some things RadioYo recommends to protect your privacy:
  • Only connect to people you know and trust well enough to recommend them to others. This gives you much more control over who can see your profile and who can contact you. It also makes it far more likely that Introduction requests that are forwarded to you will be in line with your interests. Because your direct connections are able to see your most up-to-date primary email address, connecting only to people you trust will help you keep your contact information safe.
  • Don't post your email address, phone number, or other addresses on your RadioYo profile; if you do you'll have much less control over how your contact information can be used.
  • Familiarize yourself with your current personal privacy and contact settings on RadioYo so you know what they are and what options you have. To view these settings click on 'Settings' found at the top of your home page.
  • Select a password for RadioYo that can't easily be guessed. Create one that includes 10 or more characters and includes both letters and numbers.
  • Never give your RadioYo password to others.
  • If you use a public or shared computer to log into RadioYo make sure you log out completely when you've finished.
  • Report privacy problems that you see or experience on RadioYo to Customer Service.
You can create an account on RadioYo by taking the following steps:
  • Go to www.radioyo.com. This will take you to the RadioYo home page.
  • Type in your 'First Name', 'Last Name', 'Email' address, and a 'Password' you will use in the 'Join RadioYo Today' box.
  • Click on the 'Join Now' button.
  • Complete additional steps as prompted.
If you have an address book on another networking site, most will have an Import/Export option that would allow you to create a CSV file containing the address book information. (Consult that website on specific instructions on how to create a CSV file.) Once the file is created you can save the list as a CSV file to your computer and then import the information into your RadioYo address book. This process can help you update any old contact information as well as provide you with new contacts to send RadioYo Invitations to.

To Import a CSV file take the following steps:
  • Click on "Add Connections" from the "Contacts" dropdown menu (found in the top navigation bar of the home page).
  • Click on the "Import your desktop email contacts" link.
  • Click "Browse" and locate the CSV file (saved when you exported your address book from the networking site).
  • Click on the "Upload Contacts File" button.
In order to transfer your contacts from your RadioYo account to another address book, you will need to export your contact list using the following steps:
  • Click on "Contacts" at the top of your home page.
  • Click on "Export Connections" found on the lower right side of the page.
  • On the next page make sure that "Microsoft Outlook® (.CSV File)" is selected from the drop down menu
  • Enter the text you see in the "Security image" (if it appears).
  • Click on "Export".
  • Save the file to your computer.
  • Consult the other address book on how to import a CSV file.
