## Update notfications
Part-DB can show you a notification that there is a newer version than currently installed available. The notification will be shown on the homepage and the server info page.
It is only be shown to users which has the `Show available Part-DB updates` permission.
For the notification to work, Part-DB queries the GitHub API every 2 days to check for new releases. No data is sent to GitHub besides the metadata required for the connection (so the public IP address of your computer running Part-DB).
If you don't want Part-DB to query the GitHub API, or if your server can not reach the internet, you can disable the update notifications by setting the `CHECK_FOR_UPDATES` option to `false`.
