    Hello, can you remove the encryption keys on my forms?

    What are they used for?

    Hi there,

    Happy to help!

    Encryption keys are in place to keep your form submissions secure: without the key, you may not be able to view your form submissions, so we highly recommend keeping them, just in case.

    Guide for reference: encrypted-forms-and-how-to-use-them

    Upon looking in your account, it looks like you have it set to automatically create new forms as encrypted forms:

    If you'd like to disable this feature, you can de-select the checkbox from the Data section of your Account: https://support.jotform.com/myaccount/data

    I hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any further questions.
