The user profile is a section, page or tab, used to manage and display a set of personal information of a certain user.

The user profile (or sometimes called simply "profile") is a section, page or tab, used to manage and display one or more sets of personal information of a certain user.

The user profile is considered a digital representation of the user, and is often associated with the online identity of the user.

User profiles can contain various user-related content - first/last name, nickname, avatar, email address and other user-specific fields.

Often, a user profile can have capabilities for personalizing the public profile view and changing the access settings in order to make certain data visible only to certain users.
