The only thing you need to complete this process is your WAL-key. You will have gotten that through your invitation for the free tier, or from one of our resellers if you paid for a month of patron or family status. You can safely enter your WAL-key in the field below and follow the registration steps, it will not use up or invalidate your WAL-key until you click finalize at the very end.
If you already have registered an account and want to enter a patron or family status WAL-key then you're in the wrong place, kindly follow the url found in the message that contained your WAL-key.
We are currently not accepting any more users, but this will change shortly.
Here's a JSON dump of your account data. MAKE SURE YOU BACK THIS UP! venti-late.com is a zero knowledge system, which means we will not have a copy of this data. That way we cannot sign your data which ensures that any updates to your account can only be done by you. But that also means that if you lose this data then you permanently lose your account. There will be no way to recover your authentication data. Your will never be able to edit or delete a comment again.
domain - your domain is a lock ensuring that comments cannot be added to your site if they originate from another domain.
publickey - this is your publickey in base64 encoding. This will be embedded in your site's html and enables everyone to verify that signatures really were made by you. This is essential to make sure that any edits or deletions of comments really were made by you. If an edit is made with a signature that cannot be verified by your publickey then that edit will be discarded by clients. This key is, as the name implies, public and not secret at all.
privatekey - this is your privatekey in base64 encoding. This key will allow you to sign updates you make to comments on your domain, ie if you delete or edit a comment. When you do so you generate a signature using the privatekey which every visitor can verify as authentic using your publickey. It is essential that you never share this key with anyone, including us. Anyone who asks for it is trying to scam you. Possession of this key enables anyone to delete and edit comments on your site. Loss of this key means that you irrevocably lose control of your venti-late account. Your privatekey is stored encrypted on our servers using the password and salt. Thus even we do not have access to it.
password - your auth password, along with the salt, is used to decrypt your privatekey when you request it from our servers. This password is not stored on our servers, if you lose it you lose control of your venti-late account. Nobody will ever ask you for your password, including us. Anyone who does is attempting to scam you.
token - this is your auth token. Along with your password you will enter this to authenticate as the owner of the comment flow. You can think of it as a login username, although it's not quite accurate. Nobody will ever ask you for your token, anyone who does is attempting to scam you.
salt - used to help decrypt your privatekey when you request it from our servers. Should never be shared with anyone. It is stored unencrypted on our servers but not acessible if you do not have your token. Communication with us at venti-late might ask you to provide all or parts of the salt as a way to authenticate you.
Everything looks good on our end, simply hit "finalize" below and your account will be up and running. Do note that this will permanently use up your WAL-key. Make sure you want to continue and triple check that you've backed up your JSON data in a safe place.
