1. Open Account Settings from the sidebar.
2. Go to the My Settings page and select the Account tab.
3. Edit your First Name, Last Name, Phone, Bio, and Language.
4. Select English, Spanish, or Dutch as your interface language. The interface will update immediately as a live preview.
5. Click Save to apply your changes.

Notes:

• Your phone number is visible only to your legionella consultant and colleagues, not publicly.
• The Bio field allows up to 500 characters.
• The interface language change is saved permanently only after you click Save.

Upload or Change Your Profile Picture

Add or update your profile photo so colleagues and clients can recognize you across the platform.

1. Open Account Settings and go to My Settings under the Account tab.
2. Click Edit photo on your current avatar or initials.
3. Choose an image file in JPEG, PNG, or WebP format that is under 5 MB.
4. The photo uploads automatically and replaces your initials avatar.

Notes:

• Only these file formats and sizes under 5 MB are accepted. Other formats or larger files are rejected.
• There is no option to remove a photo; you can only replace it by uploading a new one.
• Until you upload a photo, your initials will show as your avatar.

Set Your Notification Preferences

Choose which notification topics reach you and select your preferred delivery channels: email, push notifications, or the in-app inbox.

1. Open Account Settings from the sidebar.
2. Go to the My Settings page and select the Notifications tab.
3. Review the notification topics grouped into collapsible sections.
4. For each topic, toggle the channels you want: Email, Push, and/or Inbox. Some topics offer only certain channels, and required topics (marked (Required)) cannot be disabled.
5. Use a section's master toggle to enable or disable all topics for a channel simultaneously.
6. Click Save to apply your preferences.

You will see a confirmation message stating: "Your notification preferences have been updated."

Notes:

• The exact list of topics and available channels depends on your organisation’s backend settings and may vary across environments.
• Turning off email or push for a topic does not stop notifications appearing in the in-app inbox if that channel is enabled or required.
• Required topics always remain enabled and cannot be turned off.
• Notification preferences apply only to your personal account.
