Logging in

Here's how you log in to your Private.Ki account:

Step 1: Logging in with username and password

Entering your data

Navigate to the Private.Ki login page.

Enter your username and password:

Click on Sign in.

Can't remember your password? If you have set up a password recovery method before, it's easy to login nevertheless.

Two-Factor Authentication (if enabled)

If you've enabled two-factor authentication for your account, you need to enter the code now:

Open the authenticator app on your device which you've set up before.

Enter the 6-digit code from your app:

Be quick, every code expires after a couple of seconds.

Click Verify.

Step 2: Decrypting your data

After you've signed in, all your data is still encrypted.

To decrypt it, we need to access your secure PGP key pair.

Your key pair is secured with your passphrase.

If you had set up Password only during sign-up, this happens automtically. You don't need to do anything.

In case you're using Passphrase + Device Authentication, your device will ask you for secure verification of your biometics (fingeprint or face scan) to unlock your secret key.

If you're using a unique Passphrase, you'll have to enter it now:

Click on Submit to continue.

You're logged in

After that, your data is securely decrypted on your device.

No decrypted data is sent to our servers, the decryption process is handled solely on your local device.

Congratulations, you're logged in now, and you can access your messages.
