Paste the certificate from your deletion email. Verification runs in your browser using the published Ed25519 public key - your certificate never leaves your device.
How verification works
Each deletion certificate contains your workspace identifier, the deletion timestamp, and the original encryption-key creation timestamp. Pocodot signs that payload with our Ed25519 private key. The verifier downloads our published public key and checks the signature mathematically. There is no way to forge a valid certificate without the private key - which never leaves our key-management system.
For the public key location and the offline verification command, see the deletion-key page.
