### πŸ‹ Own your identity

The username you choose for your identity is *public,* and is shared with websites that you login to.

When you create an identity, you should download the seed file and keep it safe. To recover a missing identity, click "import" and upload the seed file. The seed *is* your identity, so don't lose it, don't share it. Whoever has the seed owns the identity *forever.* Outside websites don't need a seed to facilitate a login, so if they ask for your seed, it's a scam.

**Own your identity.**

When you create an identity, download the seed and keep it safe. The seed *is* the identity. Don't lose it. Don't share it. Never give your seed to another person or website. It's yours, forever.

You can create as many identities as you'd like. Authlocal stores your identities locally for as long as your web browser allows, which in some cases like Safari may be only 7 days, is why you must download your seed file. If you see *"Persistence on"* in the footer, then your browser has pinky-sweared to keep your identities safe.
