Account Settings and Profile
Your Account Overview
Your TimeProof account is tied to your wallet address. The account settings page shows:
- Wallet address — your permanent identifier (cannot be changed)
- Display name — optional name shown on certificates and org memberships
- Email — optional, for important service communications
- Verification status — whether identity verification is active, expired, or not completed
- Credit balance — your current unified credit total
- Organization memberships — organizations you belong to and your role in each
Updating Your Profile
Display Name
Your display name appears on:
- Timestamp certificates (if set)
- Organization member lists
- Activity history
To update your display name:
- Navigate to Settings in your dashboard
- Edit the Display Name field
- Click Save
The display name is optional. If not set, your wallet address is used as your identifier.
Email Address
Your email address is used for:
- Important service notices (maintenance, security alerts)
- Account recovery assistance
- Subscription billing notices and verification reminders
To update your email:
- Navigate to Settings in your dashboard
- Edit the Email field
- Click Save
Email is optional but recommended. TimeProof does not send marketing emails.
Identity Verification Status
Your settings page displays your current verification status:
| Status | Meaning | Actions Available |
|---|---|---|
| Not Verified | Never completed plan-based identity verification | Start a verified monthly plan |
| Verified (with expiration date) | Active identity verification | Scheduled, instant, and LG workflows are available |
| Expired | Verification is no longer active | Renew or restart a verified monthly plan |
What Verification Unlocks
When your identity is verified:
- Instant timestamps — you can anchor immediately at 2 credits per file
- Legal-Grade upgrade — you can add the courtroom-ready package to any eligible batch
- Organization creation — you can create and own organizations
- Identity attestation — your verified identity can be cryptographically attached to eligible certificates
When verification expires, scheduled timestamps continue working normally. Instant timestamps and Legal-Grade upgrades are restricted until verification is active again.
Credit Balance
Your available credits are displayed prominently:
Balance: 842 credits
Scheduled timestamp: 1 credit per file
Instant timestamp: 2 credits per file
Legal-Grade upgrade: Starter/Pro 50 up to 25 files, Business 25 up to 25 files, Enterprise included
Pack credits never expire. The balance shown is for your personal account. If you belong to organizations, each org has its own separate unified balance visible in the org dashboard.
Session and Security
Session Management
TimeProof uses HTTP-only session cookies for authentication:
- Session persistence — you stay signed in across page refreshes and browser restarts
- Disconnect = logout — disconnecting your wallet ends your session completely
- Multiple tabs — all tabs share the same session
Security Recommendations
- Enable 2FA on your Google/Apple account if using a custodial wallet
- Keep wallet software updated if using an external wallet
- Review connected sites in your wallet settings periodically
- Sign out when done on shared or public computers
