Tap2Tag is able to provide three different types of profile; medical,pets and connect.  Our Medical profile enables you to document your medical history and current medication and allergies. Pet profiles are specific to your furry friends and connect is your business card.

Once you have completed and saved a profile you can then simply assign it to a device. Profiles can only be assigned to devices that are specific to your purchase. This means you can only assign a medical profile to a medical device, pet profiles to pet tags and connect profiles to connect devices.

Each profile, when assigned to a different device, will display different information. 

For help on setting up a profile see below

There is currently no limit on the number of profiles you can set up. For ease of use it is recommended that you restrict the total number of profiles to a manageable level. You can set up medical profiles for different members of the family as well as different lost profiles and social profiles. However only one profile at a time can be assigned to each device. In the future we will be restricting the number of medical profiles to eight as this appears to be an optimum number to administer under one account.

Before you can set up a profile you must create an account. Once you have created an account, log in to your account and go to the "My Profiles" section of the "My Account" page. Follow the instructions on the lower half of this page to set up a new profile.

At Tap2Tag your security is our primary concern. Every profile is protected by SSL (Secure Socket Layer) ensuring that all data remains private and integral. Additionally, you can set how accessible you want your profile information to be using our traffic light system. Each field of information in a profile has 3-4 levels of privacy. Green (viewable on tap), Yellow (only signed-in Tap2Tag profiles can view the field), Black (Private to profile owner), Red (Visible only to yourself or a medical professional). This allows each user to adjust the privacy of their information individually.

If you happen lose or damage your Tap2Tag device first you will need to log into your Tap2Tag account. Once in your account select "your devices". This will display any Tap2Tag devices that you have registered. Selecting the “Revoke” option, under the device name, will unlink the attached profile. If the lost device is tapped afterwards it will no longer display your information.

Before you can set up a profile you need a Tap2Tag account (see FAQ section under "Setting up your account on a computer"

Here's what you need to do.

2. You are now at your Dashboard.  This gives you details of your orders direct with us.  On the left hand side of the screen is a section called "Devices & Profiles".  Select "My Profiles".

3. This is where a list of your profiles is situated.  If you haven't created any profiles yet just click on the "Create MEDICAL" button

4. Fill out as much or as little of the information as you like (although some fields are mandatory).  We recommend that you insert a photograph for the profile as this is the best way for first responders to confirm that they are dealing with the right person in an emergency.

5. Please note that the information being input may be seen by any member of the emergency services or members of the public so you need only disclose information you want to be made available.

6. The medical profile is split into sections.  At the end of each section is a button marked "Next step".  Always press this button to move on to the next section.  Certain fields are mandatory so do not press the "Next step" button until these have been completed.

7. Under the "Emergency Contacts" section you must put in at least one contact.  The telephone number needs to be inserted using the international dialling code system.  This means dropping the "0" from UK numbers and inserting +44 at the beginning.  This will enable our texting service to contact your ICE contacts anywahere in the world.

8. You can place two messages on your medical profile.  The first PUBLIC message will be seen by anyone accessing your device.  You may want a message such as "If you are reading this and I am not around then give me a call on 0845 5578336 as I have probably lost it.  If not then please access my information by pressing the button below".  The second message will only be seen by registered members of Tap2Tag and will be displayed as part of your full medical profile.  You may want to make some other comment such as "Do not use a defibrillator as I have a pacemaker fitted". 

9. At the end of the form make sure you tick the box for agreeing to our terms and conditions.  This will be required every time you create or edit a document.

Currently there are two "states" of information shown to a first responder, the public profile and the private profile. When a first responder taps your device they see information called the public profile and is limited in its content. Once the tapper has logged in they then see more detailed information about your medical condition called the private profile.

After listening to our customers we feel that this new Traffic Light System is a significant improvement in safeguarding your information but also giving you so much more control over who sees what and when.

As you can see from the image above you will be able to choose how each field of information will be treated when a person taps your device. We have colour coded and used different shapes (to help those with colour blindness) to signify each category. So here is what they all mean.

GREEN TRIANGLE - The data in this field will be shown on the Public Profile when a Tapper first interacts with your Tap2Tag device. If you want your Inoculations to be shown of the Public Profile page then you can change the setting to a Green Triangle.

AMBER SQUARE - This information will be shown only after someone has created a Tap2Tag account and logged in. This then creates a Tagging Log where you can see who has accessed your information. Only people with validated email accounts or who have created an account with any of the Social Media buttons (as these are already pre-validated) can see this information.

RED CROSS - Only medical personnel can see this information. In the UK this will be limited to people working for the NHS using their NHS email account to set up a Tap2Tag account. In other countries around the world we will be building a "White List" of bodies who are bound by the same data protection requirements. A list of those included on the White List will be provided on the Tap2Tag website as they are vetted.

BLACK PADLOCK - There are some pieces of information that only you want to be able to see. Any data field with the Black Padlock will only be seen by you when accessing your medical profile using your own account. 

By giving you control over your own medical information and allowing you to decide who sees it, we feel this is a major step forward in allowing patients to control their own medical information. However it also forms the foundation for integrating Tap2Tag into any primary health record such as a hospital or GP's practice.
