Sign-up & User Profile
The User Profile section is the first one you land on when creating a user profile on the Cortiqal platform.
Signing-up
- Signing up is easy, you just need your e-mail address and to set a password
- As part of the secure process of setting up an account, you will receive an e-mail in which we require you to confirm your e-mail address
- Once the e-mail is confirmed, you can log in at https://app.cortiqal.com (opens in a new tab) with the e-mail and password you have defined
- Passwords are encrypted and never stored as is
- If you forgot your password, you also have the option to recover it from the login page.

Once you signed-up
- Once you signed-up on our platform you will need to set up your basic User Profile and a name for your company or group.
- By default, users are created as Admin for self sign-up and have the possibility to set up their company name.
- Invited users will inherit the normal user role and can be provided admin access by their company admin
- If you are not representing a Company you can still use our platform for your personal or unit projects. Just make sure to fill in a proper name in the Company Name field.
- Most of the details are optional, but for a good experience, we recommend setting up the full profile as it only takes a few minutes

Skills management
- Our platform is pre-populated with a set of standard skills pertaining mostly to the Product, Data, Tech, Project, Management roles
- You can always add custom skills specific to your role or company (make sure to click Add skill; the new skill is selected by default after adding)
Skills distribution overview across initiatives
- This chart allows each user to see how they have distributed their skills over the initiatives to which they have contributed

Profile / user deletion
- If you wish to close your account and details, please send an e-mail to support@cortiqal.com with the subject "Remove my user and details".
- We would love if you could also share the reasons for closing the account (optional)
