Buttons Used
Throughout My Recovery Plan you will see buttons to help you keep all of your information so you can access it when you need it.
The Save Button is used to save the information you entered to your web browser's local storage (also referred to as cookies). All data entered in this manner is securely stored within your browser and only you will have access to such data while using this browser only on this device. Unfortunately, this may not be a viable option for public or work-related systems. Please note that deleting your browser history will remove all of your saved data.
The Print Button will open your computer's/mobile device's print options. If you are connected to a printer you can print to that device. You may also have the option to save to a PDF or other usable format. Your options are controlled by your computer/mobile device.
The Email Button will open your computer's/mobile device's default email and auto-populate all of the data into the email. All you have to do is enter an email address to send it to.
*NOTE — If you do not have a default email set up on this computer/mobile device this option will not work for you. It is suggested that you set up an email first.
The Download Button allows you to download your data to your computer/mobile device in Microsoft Word format.
*NOTE — If you do not have Microsoft Word installed you will not be able to open the download.
Delete all saved data
You can delete all data that has been saved to this browser's local storage and every account passcode. By doing so, all your information will be lost, and you will be logged out. You will be unable to recover anything once it is deleted. Select the Delete All Data Button to begin the deletion process.
