## Sign in

Open [Fous Studio](https://app.fous.com) and continue with your email address or a Google account.

- **Email**: enter your address to receive a 6-digit one-time code. Codes expire after 10 minutes. If the email does not arrive, check spam and wait for the resend cooldown before asking for another code. Disposable email domains cannot register.
- **Google**: sign in with Google. If an account already exists for the same email address, the sign-in links to that profile.

Inactive browser sessions expire on their own. Signing in again does not change saved workflows, keys or connections.

## Two-factor authentication

Enable it under **Account → Security** (open the Account menu at the bottom of the sidebar and choose **Account**):

1. Select **Enable 2FA** to get a QR code and a setup key.
2. Scan the code or paste the key into an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator, 1Password or Authy.
3. Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

From then on, each sign-in asks for a current code after the email or Google step. Disable it on the same page by confirming with a current code.

## Change your email address

Under **Account → Personal info**: confirm with a code sent to your current address, enter the new address, then confirm with the code sent there.

## Recover access

- **Lost authenticator**: ask your organization's Owner or an Administrator to review your membership, or contact [support](mailto:hello@fous.com).
- **Rate-limited codes**: wait for the cooldown shown on screen before requesting a new one.

## Delete your account

Under **Account → Privacy & Data** you can delete your personal account. Deletion removes personal information and session tokens. If you are the sole Owner of an organization, that organization and its resources (keys, request logs, connections) are deleted with it. Transfer ownership first to keep it.
