How do I save my information onto the Data Tag?

Once you have entered all the information you wish to upload simply click on the button marked “Create Emergency File.”

What if I don’t have access to a computer?

Data Tag is designed to be read by the computers of medical personnel so you do not have to have a computer for the product to work for you. However, you must have access to a Windows based computer to install your information on Data Tag. If you do not have access to a computer, SOS Alert Emergency ID Dog Tag may be a more appropriate item for you.
