There are several reasons you may need to transfer ownership of a SmartVault Account. 

• You may want one of your current administrators to receive notifications and status alerts for the account instead.
• You may be transferring your account to a new owner because you hired a new admin or have sold your business. 
• You may be the administrator of the account but want to change your email address.
• You may want to change the primary contact because you want to remove the existing primary contact from your account.
