Create your profile and set notification preferences

This article explains how to update your BriqSafe profile, upload a profile picture, and choose when and where your notifications are delivered.

Note

Required role: All

Update your profile

1. Open Account Settings in the sidebar.
2. Open My Settings and select the Account tab.
3. Edit First Name, Last Name, Phone, Bio, or Language.
4. Click Save.

The Language field offers English, Spanish, and Dutch. Changing the selection switches the interface immediately as a preview, but the choice is saved only when you click Save. The Bio field accepts up to 500 characters. Your Phone number is visible only to your legionella consultant and colleagues; it is not shown publicly.

Update your profile picture

1. Open Account Settings.
2. Open My Settings and select the Account tab.
3. Click Edit photo on your avatar.
4. Choose a JPEG, PNG, or WebP image under 5 MB.

The uploaded image replaces the initials avatar. You cannot remove a photo; you can replace it by uploading another image. Images in other formats or larger than 5 MB are rejected.

Set notification preferences

1. Open Account Settings.
2. Open My Settings and select the Notifications tab.
3. In the Email delivery card, choose Immediately, Daily summary, Weekly summary, or Off.
4. Expand the relevant notification sections and use the Email, Push, and Inbox switches for each topic.
5. Click Save.

Advanced email settings can give a section its own email frequency. One Save stores both the email delivery setting and the topic switches. After saving, BriqSafe shows Your notification preferences have been updated.

Understand the notification channels

• Topics that only use the inbox show an Inbox switch.
• Some topics sent by email and to the inbox still show a Push switch, but that switch does not send anything for those topics.
• When Email delivery is set to Off, all Email switches are greyed out and send nothing. Your selections are kept.
• Topics marked Required are locked on.
• The available sections, topics, and channels come from the server, so they can differ between environments.

The Inbox is a separate channel. Turning off email or push does not remove an item from the inbox unless you also turn off the Inbox switch.

Turn daily or weekly summary emails on or off

1. Open My Settings and select the Notifications tab.
2. In the Summaries section, switch Daily summary or Weekly summary on or off.
3. Click Save.

Summary topics have an Email switch only. They do not arrive as push notifications or inbox cards. The frequency, send hour, and locations covered by each summary come from your existing summary preference and cannot be changed in the web app. A weekly summary is sent only on the weekday set in that preference.
