Account and security

How you sign in to Byteflare, how to recover an account you cannot get into, and what deleting your account actually removes.

Who this is for: Everyone with a Byteflare account.

Method	How it works
Email and password	You set a password at signup and confirm your email address before the account is usable.
Google	Choose Continue with Google on the sign-in page. Google returns you to Byteflare and the session is established. There is no separate Byteflare password on this route.

Reset a forgotten password

Choose Forgot password on the sign-in page
Enter the email address on the account.
Open the email
It contains a link back into Byteflare that signs you in for the purpose of setting a new password.
Set the new password
You land on the update-password page. Enter it twice and save.

Account details

Settings → Account holds your display name, your default hourly rate used when generating scopes, and your password. The hourly rate can be overridden for a whole organisation by a Team rate lock — see Admin and workspace management.

Appearance

Settings → Appearance switches between light, dark and system themes. The choice is stored in your browser, so it is per device rather than per account, and it is applied before the page paints so there is no flash of the wrong theme.

Sessions and signing out

Your session is held in a cookie in the browser you signed in with and is refreshed as you use the product. Signing out ends it on that device. If you think someone else has access to your account, change your password: that is the action that protects the account, and do it before anything else.

Delete your account

If you own an organisation that has no other active members, that organisation is deleted with you, including its projects, templates and pending invitations.

Cancel any active subscription before deleting the account, so no further charge is attempted. For data-protection requests rather than self-serve deletion, see Privacy, data and AI, or write to support@byteflare.app.
