Protect Your Privacy
When uploading images to your Self Service app, you are in complete control of how much information you share with the Trades Wallet Community.
-
Public Cards: For cards or certifications that are required to be presented to a potential employer, you'll simply upload a 'Public Card'.
For more information on uploading a 'Public' card to your Wallet, click here. - Mask a Photo: If you deem the information contained within a relevant submission sensitive, or private, you may choose to 'Mask' those details during the submission process from your Self Service app (i.e. the address listed on your Government Issued ID).
For more information on redacting sensitive information on an image, click here. - Private Cards: Alternatively, you may wish to keep the card or certification completely 'Private' - visible only to you. A card that is marked 'Private' within a Wallet is not shared with the Trades Wallet Community unless expressly directed by you.
