I am using QSettings to store my program's settings, but I don't work for a company or an organization, what should I pass as the organization parameter to the QSettings constructor?

Note: When I tried "none" as an organization, and tested the program in Ubuntu Linux, I found that the settings are stored in

~/.config/none/applicationName.conf
But when I went into the directory:

~/.config/
I noticed that other application are storing configurations in directories named

~/.config/applicationName/

Does this mean that I should set the organization parameter to be the application name, and the application name parameter to be the sub-section of the program configurations?

You can use your name for the organization.

Make something up and/or use your client's business name.
