I forgot my password and/or my username. How can I retrieve it?
If you forgot your password, please go the the “Forgot your password?” link
here. Enter the email address you are registered under, and we will send you a
new password.
If you forgot your username, please user our contact form to send us a request. We’ll
get back to you as soon as possible with your username.
How do I change the email address to which my comics are delivered?
To change your email delivery address, first make sure you are logged into www.gocomics.com. On your home screen,
click on My Account. On the next page, you can enter your new email address and click the green update button.
Some of my comics don't seem to be updating, especially the editorials. What's up with that?
Not all of the comics update on a daily
basis.
We often receive editorial cartoons from the creators AFTER your emails have already gone out for the day. In that
case, we’ll send you the updated cartoon in the next day’s email.
How can I add or remove comics from My Comics Page?
To change the selection of comics for your page, first log into GoComics.com with your username and password. Once
your home screen loads, look on the left side of the screen and click the comics page you wish to edit. Next, click
Add/Edit Comics to be taken to an edit screen. Simply check the boxes next to the comic(s) you want to add. To remove
comics, check the box again. Be sure to scroll to the bottom and click Save Changes when you’re done.
I'm not receiving the comics in my email. Why not?
First, you’ll want to check that email delivery is enabled for your page. To do that, log into GoComics.com with
your username and password. Click the Add/Edit Comics button and you will be taken to an edit screen. Make sure
that “Email this” is toggled to YES. If it’s not, toggle it to YES.
If the toggle is set to YES and you’re still not getting your comics, check any bulk mail folders or spam filters to see if they might be interfering with the emails. If you don't find anything on those, check any blocked email lists and make sure that comics@mycomicspage.com has not been inadvertently added. Also, please add this same address to your email address book.

What is a Collection? How do I create a Collection?
If you see a comic you like and want to keep for later, you can save it to a collection so you don’t have to go
hunting for it every time you want to read it. To collect a comic, click the Add to Collection link below the comic.
If you’ve never started a collection before, you’ll need to click Add to a New Collection, then assign a name to the
collection. If you have an existing collection, just click the name of the collection you want to save it to.
Why can’t I see all of the comics in my collection?
Why can’t I see all of the comics in
my collection? If you’re a Pro member, you’ll be able to see all of the comics you’ve collected. If you don’t have Pro
access, you are limited to the 10 most recent comics per collection.

Why do you use cookies? What are cookies?
The term "cookie" refers to a small text file sent to your browser that allows us to store your username and
other preferences in a secure fashion. These small files cannot harm your computer and do not contain any personal
information.
With the auto-login feature in our registration system, we use a cookie to remember the username information you gave
us so you don't have to enter that information each time you visit our site. Our site also uses cookies to keep
track of how users are navigating our site and to provide you with personalized content. This will allow us to serve
you the information that you want to see the most. The use of cookies is an industry standard -- you'll find them
at most major Web sites.
How secure is my personal information?
The Universal Uclick Network is operated on secure data networks protected by industry-standard firewall and
password-protection systems. In addition, to safeguard credit card e-commerce transactions we use industry-standard

are not compromised by our administrative and security measures. Visitors to our site under the age of 13 are subject
to our Children's Privacy Policy (Read Our Policy) and we encourage you to see the
policy for all of the details.
I'm under 13; can I register with your site?
The short answer to this question is yes. GoComics provides high-quality content and entertainment resources for users
of all ages. However, our concern for the safety of children under the age of 13 and the requirements of the Children's
Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) dictate that additional measures be taken prior to users under 13 gaining access
to our site. For all of the details, please see our Children's Privacy Policy or
contact the Support Team here.
When do I have to register? Why do I need to register?
You can view comics and enjoy a number of GoComics features without registering. However, in order to comment on
comics, or send comics to friends you must register with a minimum amount of information. Besides granting you account

strip Cathy are female) of our sites to advertisers. We do not disclose specific information about any user to third
parties.
Do I have to pay for registration benefits?
No. Registration benefits such as comics viewing,
commenting and sending are free to you! Enjoy them! A yearly fee is required to get the privileges of a Pro
membership, including ad-free viewing and e-mail delivery of your personalized comics page.
How do I log in once I have registered?
