# Proxy

> Note - when setting a proxy all members of the HR team will be notified by email. When using a proxy, all actions are logged.
>
> As an additional security measure, the proxy feature is only available upon request. Please email your request to <hello@crewmojo.com> and we will enable it for you.

**Proxies are used when a human can view and perform actions on behalf of another human. For example, a PA could proxy for an executive to set up a 1-on-1 for them.**&#x20;

## Setting Proxies

HR can change the proxy settings for any individual by going to their profile. Open the person's profile and navigate to the "Proxy" tab.&#x20;

![](/files/-MdQ_qmNq02WoPvVgY3o)

Here you can set inbound proxies (humans that can act as a proxy for the subject) and outbound proxies (the humans the subject can act as a proxy for). Click on the "select" button and add the relevant person(s).&#x20;

The corresponding setting in the other persons profile will show the change right away.&#x20;

## Using a Proxy

Once you have proxy privileges, the person will show up in the side menu. Click on the human you wish to proxy for.&#x20;

The platform will appear as normal, except with a message at the top to remind you of the proxy status. Click the X on this message to end the proxy session. The session will timeout after one hour, logging you out.&#x20;

**Proxy sessions are set to automatically time out after one hour.**&#x20;

## Permissions

Proxies are allowed to do anything in the platform except view any private notes, or file notes/reviews about themselves. &#x20;

Only HR can change proxy settings, but they can enable anyone to use proxies.&#x20;
