When using StartRisk there are three key concepts that allow users to work across multiple businesses if required, these are your account, profiles and the businesses themselves.

1. Your account

   • Your account is what you use to log in to StartRisk. The email address you use to sign up becomes your account email. Your account can have many different profiles against it, each of which can be set up with a different email address.

     

2. Your profiles

   • After you log in or sign up for the first time you well enter a profile wizard that creates your first profile. You can define your name, job title, and contact email address for each seperate profile that you have. This information is what will be displayed in any businesses that are linked to this profile.
   • You can create many profiles, they are all accessed by logging in to your account and then clicking the StartRisk logo in the top left corner of StartRisk.
   • If you are invited to join someone else’s business using an email address that is not your account email, you will be asked if you would like to add a new profile to your existing account or create a new account using another email address.
   • Each profile has its own notification / contact email, so you can receive communications through the appropriate channel for you.

3. Your businesses

   • You can create one or more businesses against each of your profiles. For example: as a group Risk Manager you use one profile for each company within your group. Or as a Director you have a different profile for each business you work with.
