Secure your account

Available onFreeProResearch

Readsira emails you whenever someone adds a sign-in method to your account, such as a password or a connected provider. If you added it, ignore the link. If you did not, the email has a Secure my account link. This page explains what it does.

  1. Open the link from the email. It opens a page titled Secure your account.
  2. The page removes the sign-in method the email was about.
  3. It signs your account out on every device.
  4. Readsira emails you a link to set a new password.

When it is done, the page says Your account is secured. Check your email, set a new password, then press Sign in.

Opening the link in a mail program that previews links does not trigger it. The action runs when the page loads in a browser.

The page says This link does not work when the link has expired or was already used. If you did not add the sign-in method, press Reset your password to request a password reset. That locks out anyone who does not have your new password.

After that, review your account:

  1. Sign out other devices.
  2. Check your sign-in methods and turn on two-factor sign-in.
