Guides for getting into your VPSDime account and managing how you sign in.

## Signing in & creating an account
- [Signing in](https://vpsdime.com/knowledgebase/client-area/account/signing-in). Email and password, "verify you're human", forgotten passwords.
- [Reset a forgotten password](https://vpsdime.com/knowledgebase/client-area/account/reset-password). Use the "Forgot password?" link to get a reset email and set a new one.
- [Sign in with Google or GitHub](https://vpsdime.com/knowledgebase/client-area/account/sign-in-with-google-or-github). One-click sign-in, the confirmation email, "no password needed".
- [Creating an account](https://vpsdime.com/knowledgebase/client-area/account/creating-an-account). Signing up on the site or during checkout.

## Two-factor authentication & security
