We talk a lot about just how easy it is to sign up for an account on TARTLE. But why should you take our word for it? It\\u2019s past time that we just go ahead and show you how easy it is. If you want the visual, head on over to TARTLEcast where Alex and Jason walk you through the whole process on the site. If you don\\u2019t have time for that, we\\u2019ll provide you with a brief overview right here. Let\\u2019s jump right in.

First off, we have you put your name in to sign up. Why? Since we are always so careful about your information and your identity, why do you even need to give your name? Because there are other variables at play. Namely, we have to run your name against lists of known terrorists and criminals like money launderers. If we let those guys into our data marketplace, it not only helps bad people do bad things, it invites some unwanted attention. What kind of unwanted attention? The CIA breathing down our necks and demanding access to our servers. We\\u2019d tell them no, but we really don\\u2019t want that headache. So this little measure keeps people out of our hair and yours as well. Besides, we encrypt it all and don\\u2019t share it with anyone. So you are doubly protected.\\xa0

Next is your birthday, which is used for the same reason, not to mention making sure that you are of an appropriate age to be making online accounts on your own. Again, laws.\\xa0

Next, put in your email. That way we know who to notify of any changes to TARTLE and most importantly when people are looking for data you might be willing to share.\\xa0

Then, naturally you put in a password. For crying out loud, don\\u2019t share that with anyone. And use a new one, not the same one you use for your Gmail and Netflix account. If we and you are going to all this trouble to ensure your data is protected, it would be a shame if someone got a hold of your information because they saw your password.\\xa0

Of course, we have a privacy policy and terms of service you need to accept. Don\\u2019t worry, you won\\u2019t need a team of lawyers to understand it. The terms are incredibly simple and clearly state what we are doing to protect you and TARTLE and how.\\xa0

Create that account and navigate our anti-bot feature. We don\\u2019t want automated bots any more than we want terrorists in our system. Put the puzzle piece where it is supposed to go and then \\u2013 bang! \\u2013 your account is created! Well, we aren\\u2019t quite done yet. Get over to the email account you gave us.

There, you will find an email from us asking you to verify your account. Yes, it is there. If you don\\u2019t see it right away, check your spam folder. We know our servers work and send out emails when we want them to. So please don\\u2019t contact us saying you didn\\u2019t get the email. Or that you can\\u2019t log into the site. If you created your account but can\\u2019t log in, it\\u2019s because you still need to verify your account by clicking on the link in the verification email.\\xa0

With that done, you have completed your first step to working with TARTLE in order to take control of your data. Next, you are ready to get started setting up your profile and synching your accounts. We will get into that and more as we continue this tutorial series on signing up with TARTLE. When we are done, you will know everything you need to know to regain your data privacy and actually get rewarded for sharing your data.\\xa0
