How do I manage my username and password?
You can change your profile, incl. username and password and reset your password under https://vms.vitero.de/vitero/user/myprofile.htm.
If vitero is used via an LMS connector, please use the access data for the LMS (e.g. ILIAS or Moodle). You may also receive an email with a session code or direct link. In these cases you can also use vitero without access data.
What if my user account has been locked?
Your account is locked after the third incorrect entry of the username or password. This serves as protection for your data. If your account has been locked, you can request an e-mail for resetting your password at vms.vitero.de or in the log-in mask. Alternatively, you can turn to your vitero administrator.
How do I delete my user account?
You can delete or change your data under vms.vitero.de (in the section „My Profile“).
How do I upload a photo of myself?
You can take a picture with your webcam during the session or upload up to two photos under vms.vitero.de in the section “My Profile” and save it in the VMS. If you use vitero via an LMS, your profile picture may be automatically adopted.
How do I change my e-mail address?
You can change your e-mail address under vms.vitero.de in the section “My Profile”.
Which privacy settings are possible?
Under vms.vitero.de in the section „My Profile“, you can decide which data you would like to publish for your vitero account. As a German company with exclusively German server locations, vitero GmbH is obliged to keep to the terms of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). In addition, your administrator can make further settings to protect your privacy, e.g. to comply with corporate data protection requirements. This way it is possible to force a password change or to participate in a vitero session anonymously.
How do I invite participants?
Depending on your purchased license and the use of an LMS connector, you can invite participants via an Outlook AddIn, an automatically generated e-mail of the Vitero Management System or the vitero event manager (automated invitation via a form), the vitero support or a self-written e-mail.
