Aċċess fil-portal tal-web

Il-portal tal-web TachoData jagħtik aċċess għall-kont TachoData tiegħek minn kwalunkwe kompjuter — Mac, Windows jew Linux — permezz ta' browser tal-web, mingħajr il-bżonn tal-app mobbli.

Fejn issibu

Fl-intestatura tal-paġna prinċipali, il-buttuna Idħol tinsab fil-kantuniera ta' fuq lemin ħdejn is-selettur tal-lingwa. L-URL diretta hija tachodata.eu/portal/login. Fuq mowbajl, il-link tinsab fil-qiegħ tal-menu hamburger.

Tliet modi ta' aċċess

Il-portal juża l-istess kont bħall-app mobbli TachoData. Agħżel il-metodu li bih oriġinarjament irreġistrajt:

Idħol bil-Google — jekk irreġistrajt fl-app mobbli b'kont Google.
Idħol bl-Apple — jekk irreġistrajt fl-app mobbli b'Apple ID.
Email + password — jekk irreġistrajt b'koppja tradizzjonali email/password.

L-ebda reġistrazzjoni fuq il-web

Kontijiet TachoData ġodda jistgħu jinħolqu biss fl-app mobbli (Google Play jew App Store). Il-portal tal-web jaqdi esklussivament biex tidħol f'kontijiet eżistenti. Jekk għadek m'għandekx kont, l-ewwel niżżel l-app fuq it-telefon u rreġistra hemm.

Sigurtà

Wara l-aċċess, il-browser tiegħek jirċievi cookie ta' sessjoni naħa tas-server. It-token ta' awtentikazzjoni TachoData qatt ma jasal fil-browser — jibqa' fuq is-server, li jipproteġi l-kont tiegħek minn attakki XSS. Is-sessjoni tiskadi wara 2 sigħat ta' inattività.

Jekk insejt il-password u rreġistrajt bil-Google jew bl-Apple, sempliċement uża dak il-metodu ta' aċċess. L-irkupru klassiku tal-password huwa disponibbli fl-app mobbli.
