*Important Notice*
Date December 03, 2019
Tomorrow (December 04, 2019, 1AM EST) we are doing maintenance and upgrading our systems related to authentication. For users who did not authenticate after July 4th, 2019 we will require them to set up a new password upon their first login. For all the others no action required. We think the process will be very smooth, however, if you do encounter any problems please let us know, and we will try to resolve it in the shortest time.
Thank you,
The TouchCast Team
