Common Questions
Can I use a different email address? Yes, update your email in the Profile tab. Ensure you have access to the new email as you'll need to verify it.
How do I stop getting so many emails from WiseComply? Go to the Notifications tab and turn off the alerts you don't need. You can keep some on while disabling others.
What should I do if I see a login I don't recognise? Immediately go to the Security tab, reset your password, and contact your society administrator if you suspect unauthorised access.
Can I change my role in the society? You can change what's displayed in your profile, but the society administrator controls actual access permissions. Contact them to change your permissions.
What happens to society data if I delete my account? Society data remains intact. Only your personal profile is deleted. The society's records, documents, and other information are not affected.
Can I recover my account after deleting it? No. Account deletion is permanent. You would need to create a new account and be re-invited to the society by an administrator.
How often should I check my account activity? Review it occasionally, especially if you notice anything unusual with your account. Monthly checks are a good practice for security awareness
