Your account
Last updated:
You only need an account to act: to register a burn, check in, or subscribe to notices. Checking the status never needs one.
Signing in
There is no password. Enter your mobile number or email address and we send you a 6-digit code. Each phone number or email you have proved is yours is a way to sign in, and a way for us to reach you.
Add another phone or email
- Sign in and open your account page.
- Choose Add an email or phone.
- Enter it, then the code we send to it.
You can remove a phone or email at any time, as long as one is left to sign in with.
Two accounts for one person
If the phone or email you add already belongs to another account, we offer to merge the two. Both histories are kept. If that does not work, contact us and we will help.
Download your data
From your account page you can download what we hold about you: your contact details and your burns.
Delete your account
Choose Delete account on your account page and confirm. You are signed out on every device.
- Your account, ways to sign in and contact details are deleted straight away.
- If you have a burn today or in the future, the agencies keep your contact details for that burn until the burn day ends, so they can respond to it. Then they are deleted.
- Burn records that agencies must keep stay, without your name or contact details. If a public-records law requires an agency to keep contact details for longer, they are kept out of sight until that period ends.
