Tauschen: Has a notion of "trade" in it. You give something away and get something from the person you gave it to. So both of the 2 persons get what the other person had before:
Karten tauschen.
Kleidung tauschen.
Rollen tauschen. (change parts (acting))
Austauschen: Here both people get something they haven't had before without loosing something:
Informationen austauschen.
Erfahrungen austauschen.
Umtauschen: Mainly used for giving back something you bought to get another article at the same shop for whatever reason:
Das Hemd umtauschen.
