A "Clear Profile" refers to the process of repurposing your Tapt Card for a different profile, while acknowledging the potential risks associated with sharing information from the original profile. This action allows you to recycle your physical card for a new purpose, maintaining its functionality while updating the digital profile it links to.

Before proceeding with a clear profile, it's important to understand the implications and consider the following points:

  • Public Information: The information contained in the original profile is often publicly accessible, similar to what one might find on a business card. Keep in mind that sharing certain details may be within acceptable norms for networking purposes.

  • Company Responsibility: When clearing a profile, the company takes responsibility for sharing information from the original profile. It's essential to assess any potential risks and ensure compliance with relevant data privacy regulations.

  • Purposeful Reuse: Clearing a profile allows your Tapt Card to be repurposed for a new individual, enabling you to continue using the physical card while updating the digital content it links to.

  • Profile Customisation: Take advantage of the opportunity to customise the new profile with the recipient's professional details, including a profile image, contact information, social links, and any other relevant data.

  • User Consent: Obtain the necessary consent from the new profile owner before repurposing the Tapt Card. This ensures that they are aware of the information being shared and have agreed to its use.

Steps to Clear a Profile:

  1. Access Tapt Dashboard: Log in to your Tapt Dashboard using your admin credentials.

  2. Navigate to Profiles: Click on the "Profiles" tab in the left-hand navigation menu.

  3. Select Profile: Locate and select the original profile that you intend to clear from the card.

  4. Edit Profile: Click on the "Edit Profile" button (pencil icon) to access the profile's settings.

  5. Clear Profile Information: Update the profile details, including the profile image, contact information, and any other relevant data, based on the new user's information.

  6. Save Changes: Ensure that all changes are accurate and complete. Save the edited profile.

  7. Reassign Card: In the Tapt App, tap the card on the recipient's device or have them scan the QR code to link the new profile to the Tapt Card.

  8. Consent and Notifications: Inform the new profile owner about the repurposing of the card and ensure they consent to using the card for their profile.

It's important to approach the clear profile process with caution and transparency. By following these steps and being mindful of the potential risks, you can reuse your Tapt Card for a different profile and continue leveraging its networking capabilities effectively.
