# Geofencing

[Organization](https://docs.imerit.net/core-concepts/organizations) administrators can choose to limit access to their organization to certain IP address ranges and zones through a feature we call *Geofencing*.

## Geofencing your organization

From the *Organization* page, navigate to the Geofencing tab, then enable the toggle that appears. You will see the following:

Add the IP ranges and zones which will be allowed to access your organization, then click on *Apply IP and Zone Restrictions* to enable geofencing.

{% hint style="danger" %}
By applying the wrong geofencing settings, you may permanently lock yourself, and everyone else, out of your organization.

Before applying geofencing settings, please ensure that your IP, or your zone, is included in the IP or zones list.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Zones and IP ranges are cumulative, meaning that if you select an IP range and a country, people from the IP range *and* the country will be able to access your organization.
{% endhint %}

To disable geofencing, enter the *Geofencing* section of the *Organization* page, and turn off the toggle.

## Verifying whether your organization is geofenced

Next to your organization's name in the organization switcher, you will be able to see whether or not your organization is geofenced.

If the "world" icon is grey and without a padlock, your organization is not geofenced:

If the icon is green and showing a padlock, your organization is geofenced. Hovering over the icon will provide details about the geofencing settings:
