# Roles and permissions

The dashboard is engineered with an emphasis on security and data integrity, incorporating role-based access controls that ensure users only access information and functionalities pertinent to their responsibilities. This not only safeguards sensitive information but also optimizes the workflow by aligning features with user roles.&#x20;

The Evolv ecosystem is structured around a hierarchical role system designed to streamline management and operational efficiency. This system distinguishes between **Super-admin, Bharat Aggregators, Brands, Brand Managers and ground staff** with distinct capabilities and responsibilities as mentioned below.

### **Super-admin**

The Super-admin holds the highest authority within the Evolv ecosystem. This role is currently occupied exclusively by **Evolv Team.**

The Super-admin is responsible for the creation and management of all new tasks, rewards, and points features. This role is the involves creating tasks and assigning points to each, ensuring a cohesive and controlled operational environment.

### **Brand Aggregators**

Aggregators are entities that manage multiple brands within the Evolv ecosystem.&#x20;

Aggregators have the ability to enable specific tasks and rewards for the brands they manage. They also oversee the management of points associated with these tasks and rewards, tailoring the engagement and reward strategies to suit the collective needs of their brands.

### **Brands**

Brands within the Evolv ecosystem can operate either independently or under the management of an aggregator.

* **Under Aggregators:** Brands managed by an aggregator are restricted to the tasks, rewards, and points configurations enabled by their respective aggregator. These brands cannot modify the pre-set tasks and rewards.
* **Independent Brands:** Brands that are onboarded independently have access to Evolv’s default tasks, rewards, and points. These brands have the flexibility to edit and customize these settings according to their specific needs and objectives.

## Implications of Role Hierarchy

1. The structured hierarchy ensures that each level of operation within the Evolv ecosystem has defined roles and responsibilities, enhancing operational clarity and efficiency.
2. This system supports scalability and flexibility, allowing Aggregators to effectively manage multiple brands while providing brands the autonomy to operate independently if they choose.
3. The central role of the Super-admin as the primary issuer and manager of tasks and rewards ensures uniformity and standardization across the platform, crucial for maintaining system integrity and user trust.&#x20;
