Profile

A Profile is the persistent identity record for each end user or company on AdvanGuard. It accumulates verified data across multiple verification sessions and anchors long-running services like AML Monitoring and ScoreCard risk scoring.

Single source of truth

All verified data from every verification session is written back to one persistent Profile. Store one profileId per user or company.

Survives multiple verifications

A user can complete multiple Applications over time, for example annual re-verification. Each result enriches the same Profile.

AML & Risk hub

Once activated, the Profile anchors AML Ongoing Monitoring (OGS) and ScoreCard risk scoring for the entity's lifetime.

Two types of Profiles

Individual
KYC — person identity

Individual Profile

Stores personal identity data, ID documents, selfie/liveness results, AML case references, and ScoreCard scores for a natural person.

Profile Lifecycle

Every Profile starts in INIT state. As Applications progress, the Profile transitions through different states based on verification outcomes. Each state enables or disables different services and capabilities.

Key Points

  • INIT → ACTIVE: Profile is activated when an Application successfully completes verification
  • ACTIVE ↔ INACTIVE is reversible: The compliance team can pause and reactivate Profiles at any time
  • Data persistence: All Profile data is retained when paused, allowing seamless reactivation
  • Service enablement: Only ACTIVE Profiles trigger downstream monitoring services (AML Monitor, ScoreCard, event notifications)
