# Recovery Phrase

### Your Most Important Wallet Credential

A **Recovery Phrase** is a sequence of words generated for your Web3 Wallet.

It may be used to restore access to the wallet if the wallet needs to be recovered.

Because of its importance, your Recovery Phrase should be treated as a highly sensitive credential.

#### ⚠️ Never Share Your Recovery Phrase

Never provide your Recovery Phrase to:

• ARBYDEX support\
• Telegram administrators\
• Customer service representatives\
• Friends or other users\
• Websites requesting wallet recovery\
• Unknown applications\
• Anyone claiming to help recover your funds

**ARBYDEX support will never require you to disclose your Recovery Phrase.**

#### How to Store Your Recovery Phrase

We strongly recommend storing your Recovery Phrase in a secure private location.

Consider:

**Write it down**

Record the words carefully and keep the physical copy somewhere secure.

**Keep multiple secure backups**

If you create a backup, make sure every copy is stored securely.

**Keep it offline**

Avoid storing your Recovery Phrase in locations that can easily be accessed through your online accounts.
