Privacy & visibility

You are verified. You decide what is public.

Your verified identity and your public information are two different things. Verification never publishes anything on its own.

Verified identity

Always private

Date of birth, verification documents, document numbers and private contact details are never public and cannot be switched on.

Public information

Yours to control

Everything below is a choice. Change it whenever you want — changes take effect immediately.

Public profile

Your profile can appear in the public African Investor Directory.

On

Public profile

On by default. Turn this off to remove yourself from the directory entirely.

Investment amount

Your investment amount is private and will not be displayed publicly.

What appears on my public profile

Show my full name

Otherwise your profile shows as a verified DCI member.

Show my country

Your country appears on your profile and in directory filters.

Show my city

City is more specific than country. Off is a reasonable default.

Show profile photo

Your photo appears on your public profile and directory card.

Show ASWF Investor status

Displays your verified investor badge. Never shows amounts.

Show investment interests

Sectors you care about, used to match you in the directory.

Show projects I support

Names of projects you have backed.

Show personal statement

Your short statement about why you invest in Africa.

Allow public contact

Members can message you through DCI’s protected relay. Your email is never revealed.
