# My Account
## Why Do I Need an AgeGO Account
Creating an AgeGO account has several advantages:
* You verify your age only once for any website that uses AgeGO.
* You can manage your AgeGO account easily.
* You can delete your AgeGO account at any time.
* Your account's email address is encrypted.
## How to Create an AgeGO Account
Start the age verification process when you visit a website that uses AgeGO.
After a successful verification, you can create an AgeGO account to make future access faster.
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Follow the age verification steps and verify your age. Use one of the verification methods displayed on the screen.
{% hint style="info" %}
This image is an example. Available verification methods may vary depending on your location and local regulations.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
On a successful verification, AgeGO prompts you to create an account.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Choose how you want to create your account:
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Passkey" %}
Select **Passkey** to create your AgeGO account with a passkey instead of an email address. You confirm on your phone or tablet, the same way you unlock it (Face ID, fingerprint, or PIN).
{% hint style="info" %}
Setting up a passkey on iPhone is only available in **Safari** and **Chrome**. In Firefox, the **Passkey** option isn't available, so continue with **Google** or **Email** instead.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Google" %}
Select **Google** to create your AgeGO account with your Google email. No one-time code is required.
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Email" %}
Select **Email**, enter your email address, then enter the one-time code sent to your inbox to access the site and create your AgeGO account.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
On future visits to websites that use AgeGO, you log in with your AgeGO account.
{% hint style="info" %}
If you select **Skip For Now**, no account is created and your verification is not saved. You need to verify your age again on your next visit to a website that uses AgeGO.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
## Future Access to Websites Using AgeGO
Once you have verified your age through AgeGO, the process is much simpler. The next time you visit a website that uses AgeGO:
1. Visit the website you want to access.
2. In the age verification pop-up, click **Log In**.
3. Choose how to **log in**:
### Passkey
* Select **Passkey** (available if you have set up a passkey).
* Confirm on your phone or tablet, the same way you unlock it (Face ID, fingerprint, or PIN).
* You now have access to the website's age-restricted content.
### Google
* Select **Google**.
* Sign in to your Google account.
* You now have access to the website's age-restricted content.
### Email
* Enter your email address and click **CONTINUE**.
* Enter the one-time code sent to your email.
* You now have access to the website's age-restricted content.
## How to Set Up a Passkey
There are two ways to set up a passkey with your AgeGO account. You can create a new AgeGO account with a passkey right after completing your age verification, or you can add a passkey to an existing AgeGO account.
### Option A — Right After Verifying Your Age
The fastest way. Set up your passkey right after verifying your age, before leaving the site. If you don't have an AgeGO account yet, this also creates one for you. No email needed.
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Complete your age verification using any available method. See [Verification Methods](/verification-methods.md) for the full list.
On the **Save Your Verification** screen, select **Passkey**.
{% hint style="info" %}
Setting up a passkey on iPhone is only available in **Safari** and **Chrome**. In Firefox, the **Passkey** option isn't available, so continue with **Google** or **Email** instead.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %}
If you'd rather not set up a passkey now, select **Google** or **Email** to create your account instead. You can add a passkey later from [My Account](#option-b-from-my-account). If you select **Skip For Now**, no account is created and your verification is not saved, so you need to verify your age again on your next visit.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
On a computer, a QR code appears. Scan it with your phone or tablet to continue.
On your phone or tablet, the passkey prompt appears straight away. Confirm the same way you unlock it (Face ID, fingerprint, or PIN).
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Once your device confirms the passkey, a success screen appears and you have access to the age-restricted content.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
### Option B — From My Account
Use this if you already have an AgeGO account.
{% hint style="info" %}
Adding a passkey from My Account is only available on a computer or an Android device.
{% endhint %}
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Log in to [My Account](https://www.agego.com/login) with **Email** or **Google**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Select **Add New Passkey**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Follow the on-screen instructions to create a passkey. You confirm on your phone or tablet, the same way you unlock it (Face ID, fingerprint, or PIN).
On a computer, a QR code appears. Scan it with your phone or tablet to continue.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Once created, you can log in with your passkey next time.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
### How to Manage Your Passkey
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
From [My Account](https://www.agego.com/login), view your registered passkey.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Select the remove icon to remove your passkey.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
## Your Data and Privacy
When you create an account, AgeGO stores:
* Encrypted email address — if you registered with **Email** or **Google**.
* Age verification status (Verified / Not Verified).
* Account creation date.
* Passkey details — if you set one up. The passkey itself stays on your phone or tablet; AgeGO only keeps what it needs to recognise it.
* An account ID — if you registered with a passkey only. No email address is collected.
You can delete your AgeGO account at any time. AgeGO does not retain any information once an account is deleted.
The age verification status is the only information AgeGO provides to the website you are verifying your age for.
For more details on the processing of personal data, see the [AgeGO Privacy Policy](https://www.agego.com/privacy-policy).
## How to Delete an AgeGO Account
You can delete your AgeGO account in [My Account](https://www.agego.com/login).
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Log in to your AgeGO account with **Email**, **Google** or **Passkey**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Select **Delete Account**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
To confirm, select **Delete**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Your data is removed and you return to the Log In screen.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
If you log in with a passkey, delete your AgeGO account first (steps above), then remove the passkey from your phone or tablet (in password and passkey settings).
If you remove the passkey before deleting your AgeGO account, AgeGO cannot identify which account it was linked to.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
Deleting your account is permanent and cannot be undone. All data linked to your account is removed according to the AgeGO Privacy Policy and applicable data protection laws. Any associated passkeys are no longer usable.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.
## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.agego.com/my-account.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
