How does login with Facebook work? Will Encyro see my Facebook password?
To login with Facebook, click the “Continue with Facebook” button on the Login page.
If you have never signed in to Encyro using Facebook before:
- You will be taken to a Facebook page. Note the web address in the browser window - its a web page from Facebook. Your login information is only being sent to Facebook. Encyro will not see your Facebook password. If you are already logged in to Facebook, you will go directly to Step 2.
- Once you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook will ask you if it is OK for them to share your email address and public profile (what is anyway shown to anyone on Facebook) with Encyro. Facebook will not share your password with Encyro. Encyro cannot read your Facebook posts or post on your Facebook timeline.
- Click “Continue as <your name>” and then you will be logged in to Encyro.
- In some cases (when you already have documents stored in Encyro), an additional verification is needed - if so, you will receive an appropriate message and an email will be sent to you. Click the link in the email to verify your account and then you will be logged in to Encyro.
If you have signed in to Encyro using Facebook before: If you are already logged in to Facebook, clicking the “Continue with Facebook” button will take you directly to your Encyro account. If you are not logged in to Facebook, you will be taken to a Facebook page where you will login to Facebook. As soon as you do, you will be taken to your Encyro account.
