What's the difference between Personal and Company elements?

Personal elements and company elements on Digital Business Cards (DBC) serve different purposes:

Personal Elements: Personal elements are specific to an individual and reflect their personal information, achievements, interests, or personal branding. These elements allow individuals to showcase their unique qualities, skills, and personal branding on their DBC profile. Examples of personal elements include a personal statement, profile picture, personal achievements, or hobbies/interests.

Company Elements: Company elements represent the branding and identity of a company or organization. These elements are designed to maintain consistency across all DBC profiles associated with the company. Company elements typically include the company logo, colour scheme, font, and specific design templates. They help establish a cohesive visual identity and reinforce the company's brand image.

While personal elements focus on the individual and their personal brand, company elements emphasize the collective identity and branding of the company. Personal elements are customizable by the individual user, allowing them to tailor their DBC profile to their personal preferences. Company elements, on the other hand, are set at the organizational level and ensure a unified and consistent brand presence across all DBC profiles associated with the company.

By having a clear distinction between personal and company elements, DBC allows individuals to showcase their personal identity while maintaining a cohesive and professional company image.
