🔒Security & Privacy

Serial Number = sensitive

Your TimeCapsule Serial Number should never be shared. Anyone with it may try to claim or activate your device.

⚠️ Treat the Serial Number like a key. Never share it publicly.

Real email addresses (important)

When creating users, make sure each account uses a real email address. This is important because password resets and verification steps are sent to the user’s email — not to the Admin.

Why the Admin can’t view your library

TimeCapsule is built for families, and privacy is a core promise:

  • Each user has their own Immich login and private library.

  • On first login, users change their password inside the Immich app.

  • Changing sensitive credentials requires verification (for example: current password + email OTP).

This means:

  • the Admin does not know your password ✅

  • the Admin can not view your photos/videos ✅

  • the Admin can only manage the account (for example: delete it) ✅
