Profile & Account
Manage your personal account details: update your name, upload a profile photo, change your password, and delete your account if needed.
What is the Profile section?
The Profile page is your personal account settings. Every user in Cliops: Admin, Dentist, or Receptionist: can manage their own profile. It is separate from clinic-wide settings (which only Admins can access).
Who can use this?

Viewing Your Role & Clinic
Your profile page also shows:
- Your role (Admin / Dentist / Receptionist)
- displayed as a badge.
- Your email address (cannot be changed; contact your Admin if needed).
- Your clinic name.
- Your account creation date.
Deleting Your Account
⚠️ This action is permanent and cannot be undone.
Account deletion permanently removes your personal account and login access from Cliops. Clinical patient records (diagnoses, prescriptions, investigations you recorded) are retained by the clinic under their data-retention policy and are not deleted.
Who can delete:
- Any user can delete their own account.
- An Admin cannot delete their own account if they are the last active Admin in the clinic: this protects the clinic from losing all admin access.
Steps: Web App:
- Go to Profile → scroll to the Danger Zone section.
- Click Delete Account.
- A confirmation modal appears: read it carefully.
- Enter your current password to confirm.
- Click Confirm Delete.
- You will be logged out immediately and your account is deleted.
Steps: Mobile App:
- Go to Profile → scroll to Delete Account.
- Tap Delete Account → confirm in the prompt.
- Enter your password → confirm.
If you are the last admin, you will see an error: "You are the only active admin. Assign another admin before deleting your account." Add another admin first from the Users module.
