Last updated:

Find out about the password rules in Formcentric and how you can protect your account effectively against unauthorised access.

What does a secure password look like?

We accept passwords with a minimum length of 8 characters. For security reasons, however, we recommend a length of at least 12 characters.

Your password also needs to meet the following criteria:

  1. Uppercase letters (A-Z)
  2. Lowercase letters (a-z)
  3. Numbers (0-9)
  4. Special characters (z.B. !@#$%^&*)

Password validity

The password you enter is valid indefinitely.

You can reset your password in the My profile area whenever you want to. → Resetting password

Forgotten password

How to reset your password if you have forgotten it:

  1. Click ‘Forgot password?’ on the login page.
  2. Enter your email address.
  3. Check your email inbox – you will be sent a reset link.
  4. Click the link (valid for 5 minutes).
  5. Create a new password according to our password rules.
