      Access key rotation for Anti-Spam and Security

      In case your website is connected to CleanTalk it uses a special Access key to exchange information. We have improved its functionality to guarantee you the safest user experience.

      Connect your website to CleanTalk in 5 minutes and forget about spam.

      Improved Access key safety

      Your Anti-Spam and Security Access keys don’t have any expiration date. So don’t worry, you don’t have to do anything about it.

      Access key doesn’t need to be manually renewed except several cases:

      • In case you gave your website access to web developer or a freelancer and it may be compromised.
      • When your website had been hacked.
      • When you expect your CleanTalk access being given or copied to a third party.
      • In case you have any other issues and risks with CleanTalk account access.

      Also you can always change your password or email in CleanTalk dashboard.

      Step 1: Add your website to dashboard using the button below. If your site is already connected to CleanTalk pass to Step 3.

      Step 2: Input your website URL in “Site URL” field.
