What's an IP address, and how does ToonGuard use it?Īn IP address is your personal "address" that your internet connection goes by. Safe and sound! How do you know my location?ĭon't worry, we don't actually know exactly where you live - nor do we want to! Whenever you visit any website, your IP address is passed along to it to provides general information on your Internet Service Provider and their closest major location.
It does this by checking your location - if it sees an attempt to log in to your account from a location or internet provider you haven't used before, it will block that attempt until they can provide a code, which will be right in your inbox. While Two-Step Login is designed to make sure you're you, ToonGuard is designed to keep people who aren't you out. ToonGuard will silently check to make sure you are signing on from the right location while you go ahead and login to your account like any normal day. Not at all! Toontown's Two-Step Login requires you to grab a key from a mobile device every time you enter Toontown, but ToonGuard is smarter. If you have any questions or issues with ToonGuard, feel free to contact support for assistance!įAQ Do I have to submit a code every time?
ToonGuard is enabled for all accounts to start with, but if it becomes a nuisance to you after three location confirmations, you can turn it off with ease over in your Account Settings. Otherwise, it lets you go on straight to Toontown with no problems! If ToonGuard notices a login attempt from a different location or on a computer that you don't normally use, then (and only then!) will it step forward and request that you verify yourself through a unique code sent to your email address. ToonGuard monitors your account activity to check if the person trying to sign in is some rascal trying to take your Toons, rather than you. When you go to log in to your account, it won't be requesting a token over and over again. What makes ToonGuard better than other security features? Unlike Toontown's Two-Step Login, ToonGuard keeps your account safe without any of the hassle. ToonGuard is one of the Toon Council's latest and greatest inventions to help keep your account safe from any unauthorized Toons who wish to get in.
