+# General
+
+The **General** section in OpenSign includes essential settings that allow the admin to manage and control the overall configuration of the OpenSign platform.
+
+---
+
+## Enabled Signature Types
+
+Admins can define which signature types are available at the organization level.  
+
+All users under your account will only see the signing methods you enable here in their **Preferences**. They will not be able to use any signature methods that are disabled by the admin.
+
+**Example:**  
+Adam, the administrator of your company account, disables the **Typed** signature option in the **Manage Signature Types** settings. As a result, Ursula, a team member, will no longer see the **Typed** signature option in her preferences.
+
+Ursula can still enable or disable any of the remaining signature methods for each document she creates.  
+When she sends a document to Sofia (a signer), Sofia will only see the signature methods that Ursula selected during the document creation process.
+
+> **Note:** Managing **Signature Types** at the organization level is available only on the **Teams** plan.  
+> This feature is not included in the **Professional** or **Free** plans.

+
+## Allow Indexing of Public Profile
+
+If this option is enabled, the user’s public profile will be indexed and appear in search results.
+
+---
+
+## Email Template Customization
+
+This setting allows the admin to control whether users can create and manage their own email templates.
+
+- If the admin **disables** this setting, team users **cannot** create custom email templates for request signatures or document completion notifications.  
+- If the setting is **enabled**, users can customize their own individual templates.
