1. Click the edit icon next to your name
2. Update your first name and/or last name
3. Click **Save**

### Avatar

Click the camera icon on your avatar to upload a new profile photo. Images must be under 2 MB. Your avatar appears in the sidebar and on activity feeds.

### Email

Your email is used for sign-in and notifications. Changing it requires verification:

1. Click **Change Email**
2. Enter your new email address
3. A verification link is sent to the **new** address

Your email does not change until you click the verification link. If you don't receive the email, check your spam folder.

## Security

### Change password

1. Click **Change Password** on the Profile page
2. Enter your new password (minimum 8 characters)
3. Confirm the new password
4. Click **Save**

You'll stay signed in after changing your password.

## Preferences

The **Preferences** tab lets you customise your default view:

| Setting              | Options                          |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| Default session view | Grid view (default) or List view |

Click **Reset Settings** to return all preferences to their defaults.

## Organisations

The Profile page shows a read-only list of the organisations you belong to, along with your role in each (Organisation Admin, Coordinator, or Capturer). Contact your Organisation Admin if your role needs to change.

## Deactivating your account

If you need to remove your account:

1. Scroll to the **Danger Zone** section on the Profile page
2. Click **Deactivate Account**
3. Review the confirmation dialog — your sign-in access will be removed and you'll be removed from all organisations
4. Click **Deactivate** to confirm

<Warning>
  If you're the only Organisation Admin for one or more organisations, you'll need to assign another admin before you can deactivate. CaptrID will tell you which organisations need a new admin.
</Warning>

After deactivation:

* You can no longer sign in
* Your audit history is preserved for compliance
* Your data contributions (photos, approvals) remain in the system
* Contact [support@captrid.com](mailto:support@captrid.com) if you need to reactivate
