Profile, language and privacy

Your profile applies to you personally, in every organization and team. You reach it through your avatar: click it (bottom left in the sidebar) and choose Profile Settings.

Editing your profile​

The Profile Settings page. At the top the profile picture with the initials AB. Below, the fields Email with the note that the address cannot be changed (1), Full Name with Alex Beispiel (2) and Job Title with Product Manager (3) are highlighted, followed by Member Since. The Email Preferences section with the Product Updates & News switch is highlighted (4).
The profile settings with email (1), name (2), job title (3) and email preferences (4). Name and job title are filled in as examples for the capture.
  • Profile picture: Click the picture to upload a photo. Ideally square, at least 500×500 pixels, at most 10 MB.
  • Email (1): The address is locked. If you need to change it, contact support.
  • Full Name (2) and Job Title (3): Your team sees them, for example in member lists. Save with Save Changes; afterwards "Profile updated successfully!" appears.
  • Member Since: The date you registered.
  • Email Preferences (4): The Product Updates & News switch controls occasional emails about new features. It saves immediately, without the button.

Deleting your account​

At the very bottom, the Danger Zone holds the Delete account button. Betterplan blocks it while something is in the way and names the reason: an active subscription, an organization you own, or shared teams you own that still have members or projects. Then transfer ownership first, see Teams and roles.

Language and theme​

You set both in the profile menu, not on the profile page: Language (German or English) and Theme (Light, Dark or System). The browser remembers your choice. The steps are in the interface tour.

Privacy settings​

Betterplan asks on first start which data collection you allow, see Account and onboarding. You can change your choice any time later: avatar → Legal → Tracking Settings.

The Privacy Settings dialog over the profile page. Highlighted are the locked Essential: Usage Analytics switch (1), the Feature Flags & Experiments switch (2), the Session Recording switch with a warning symbol (3) and the Save Changes button (4). Next to them are Cancel and the Privacy Policy link.
The **Privacy Settings** dialog with the three options (1 to 3) and **Save Changes** (4). Captured without saving anything.
  1. Essential: Usage Analytics (1) is always on. It is anonymous usage data used to improve Betterplan. The info icon explains why.
  2. Feature Flags & Experiments (2): personalized features and A/B tests. If you turn it off, views that are rolled out gradually disappear immediately, see the Early access notes in this documentation.
  3. Session Recording (3) records your interactions as a video-like playback, including keystrokes and network activity. It is meant for troubleshooting only and requires analytics.
  4. Save Changes (4) takes effect immediately. The choice is stored in your browser; on another device you set it again. In the dialog, the Privacy Policy link opens the full statement.
