What is Master Password?
Master Password is the only decryption key that unlocks your data Vault. It is the ONLY password you need to remember, and you are the ONLY person who knows it. A strong Master Password should meet these requirements:- At least 12 characters long.
- Includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.

Tips to avoid losing data if you forget your password
Because Locker uses a zero-knowledge security model, we cannot recover your password for you. Consider the following precautions:- Set up a password hint: Locker will send an email containing your hint to help you recall your password.
- Add an emergency contact: Users on the Premium plan can grant a trusted contact access to their Vault in case of an emergency.
