This guide explains how to add, modify, or remove users from an Organization within the Manager Infomaniak.
Introduction
- Since you opened your account with Infomaniak, you are part of at least one Organization.
- If you were alone and it was not an invitation, an Organization was created in your name and you automatically become the legal responsible.
- Otherwise, you belong to the Organization that invited you (to join its kSuite, to manage a product, etc.).
- Only a owner/legal representative can make changes.
- A potential collaborator who also has access to your Organization will not be able to modify details from their restricted account.
Add a new user
As a user of the Organization with sufficient rights, you can:
- add a new user.
- This could be someone completely external to Infomaniak,
- or someone who already has their own Infomaniak user account that they can, if they wish, reuse by extending it to your Organization.
When adding, you will be able to:
- specify his role within the Organization,
- the products he will have access to,
- as well as the administrative contact preferences.
Remove a user
As a user of the Organization with sufficient rights, you can:
Modify a user's permissions/rights
As a user of the Organization with sufficient rights, you can:
- change the role of another user,
- manage the products he has access to,
- as well as the administrative contact preferences whether they are yours or those of others.
Replace a legal representative
To change the legal representative of an Organization in the Manager, it is necessary to remove the user who has the role of legal representative, which implies naming a new legal representative in advance (indeed, it is impossible to remove a legal representative if there is no other legal representative for the Organization).
Manage users in work teams
You can organize the Organization's users into work teams.
The easiest way to manage your emails is to use the web app Mail Infomaniak (online service mail.infomaniak.com).
A mobile app (Infomaniak Mail, application for iOS/Android smartphone or tablet) is available here!
This interface offers many advantages:
- No software to install or configure.
- Email sharing with other users.
- Unified management of all your Infomaniak email addresses.
- Professional anti-spam and antivirus filter for incoming and outgoing mail.
- Automatic sorting of incoming messages (filters).
- Sending large attachments.
- Backed up continuously.
- Share kDrive.
- Secure and respects your privacy, hosted in Switzerland by a neutral and independent company.

This guide concerns the mobile app kCheck (application for iOS/Android smartphone or tablet), created to simplify identity verification procedures and strengthen the security of your Infomaniak account.

To add a reminder to an existing event:
- Click here to access the Infomaniak Web Calendar app (online service calendar.infomaniak.com).

- Click the pencil icon ✎ to edit the event:

This guide explains how to add a simple new unique event to a calendar / agenda of the Web app Calendar Infomaniak (online service calendar.infomaniak.com for managing your events and appointments).
Preamble
- To create a recurring event, refer to this other guide.
- To schedule a meeting between multiple users and find the best time slot, refer to this other guide about the appointment scheduling assistant.
Add a new event
To schedule a one-time event in a calendar managed by Infomaniak:
- Click here to access the web app Calendar Infomaniak (online service calendar.infomaniak.com).
- Click on the More button at the top left of the interface to create a New event.
- Fill in the most important fields, such as the title (subject), date/time or duration, possible participants (read below), location, relevant agenda, event color…
- Click the green button to add a link to kMeet if the event is a meeting with multiple people.
- Display additional fields by clicking on SHOW MORE FIELDS at the bottom right (and some of these fields may be automatically reused during a possible follow-up).

You can also click directly on the calendar to add a new event by dragging the mouse pointer over the desired time period.
To add an attachment from kDrive to your events on Calendar, refer to this other guide.
To add reminders to your events on Calendar, refer to this other guide.
Add participants to the event
To invite users, add their name or email address when creating the event or afterward:
You will be notified of their attendance or refusal if they follow the procedure sent by email when the event is created.
Any update to a scheduled event is also sent by email to all participants.
Find the best time automatically between participants
Before creating the event and therefore before invitations are sent to participants, it is possible to determine the best time that suits everyone based on each person's availability (e.g., other appointments in their calendars):
- Click here to access the web app Calendar Infomaniak (online service calendar.infomaniak.com).
- Click on the More button at the top left of the interface to create a New event.
- Choose a date and time that would work for you for the event.
- Add the participants.
- Click on the dropdown menu below the participants to find the earliest available time for all participants closest to the initially desired time:
In the example above, 10 am is not suitable for a one-hour appointment because Jean Dupont already has a scheduled appointment in his calendar at 10:45 am, so the system suggests 11:45 am, the closest time when all participants will be available.
An asterisk *
next to a participant means that the user's availability is unknown because…
- … or the invited person's email address is not an Infomaniak user: no user account exists with the specified email address…
- … or the invited person does not share their availability: they do not share their calendar at least in read mode with the event organizer or have not transferred their calendar into at least one of the organizer's Organizations…
Meeting room
Refer to this other guide if you are looking for information about meeting rooms that can be preconfigured to link an event to a location of this type.

Infomaniak takes pride in securing data through a comprehensive and diverse approach to security. For whistleblowers, the company has implemented an internal system for reporting irregularities safely and anonymously, without fear of reprisals. This protection mechanism is known and accessible to all employees, thereby strengthening transparency and accountability within the organization.
Processing times
Infomaniak demonstrates its commitment with concrete and effective measures to protect those who report anomalies. The company commits to processing each report submitted through its abuse form within defined deadlines to ensure optimal reactivity and maintain user trust.
To ensure effective and transparent processing, Infomaniak has established a structured process with specific deadlines:
- It commits to acknowledge receipt of all reports within 24 hours of their submission, thus allowing reporters to confirm that their request has been properly received by the competent technical teams.
- In a second step, the company conducts a preliminary assessment within 5 business days to determine the admissibility of the report and identify the resources necessary for its processing. This phase allows for the classification of the priority level and the referral of the case to the appropriate specialized teams.
- When an investigation is necessary, Infomaniak conducts an in-depth analysis within a maximum time frame of 30 business days, depending on the nature and complexity of the reported case. This period allows the security teams to carry out the required technical checks, collect the necessary evidence, and assess the potential impact of the reported situation.
- Finally, the company commits to completing the analysis and implementing the appropriate corrective actions within a 60 business day deadline when technically possible.
This final step includes implementing preventive measures, communicating the results to the relevant parties, and following up on the recommendations issued to prevent the recurrence of the identified problems.
