About Password Expiry

Track password expiration dates and get reminded before they expire. Regular password rotation is a good security practice. Set expiry periods based on your security policy (typically 60-90 days). Export reminders to add to your calendar or task manager.

How It Works

This password expiry reminder tool helps you track when to change passwords across your various accounts with customizable notifications and schedules.

The reminder management process:

Account entry: Add accounts with names, URLs, and optional notes (never store actual passwords).
Schedule configuration: Set change intervals based on account importance (30, 60, 90 days, or custom).
Notification setup: Choose how far in advance to be reminded (1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month before).
Local tracking: All data is stored locally in your browser with no server transmission.

The tool provides a dashboard view of all your accounts with color-coded status indicators showing which passwords need attention soon.

When You'd Actually Use This

Compliance Requirements

Meet organizational or regulatory requirements for periodic password changes on specific accounts.

High-Security Accounts

Ensure critical accounts (email, banking, primary services) get regular password attention.

Shared Account Management

Coordinate password changes for accounts shared with team members or family.

Post-Breach Vigilance

After a security incident, set shorter intervals for affected or similar accounts.

Habit Building

Develop regular password maintenance habits until using a password manager becomes routine.

Legacy System Accounts

Track passwords for systems that don't support modern authentication or password managers.

What to Know Before Using

Never store actual passwords here

This tool tracks metadata only (account names, dates). Store passwords in a dedicated password manager.

Browser storage has limitations

Data is stored locally. Clearing browser data will delete your reminders. Export backups regularly.

Modern guidance questions rotation

NIST now recommends changing passwords only when compromised. Use this tool if required, but prioritize unique passwords.

Prioritize by account importance

Set shorter intervals for critical accounts. Low-risk accounts can have longer or no rotation schedules.

Notifications require active checking

This tool doesn't send push notifications. You need to check the dashboard or enable browser notifications.

Common Questions

How often should I actually change passwords?

Only when there's evidence of compromise. Forced rotation is no longer recommended by security experts unless required by policy.

What accounts deserve the shortest rotation?

Email (controls password resets), financial accounts, and primary cloud services. These have the highest breach impact.

Can I export my reminder list?

Check if the tool supports CSV or JSON export. Regular backups protect against browser data loss.

What if I forget to check the reminders?

Enable browser notifications if available, or set a recurring calendar reminder to check the dashboard weekly.

Should all accounts have the same rotation schedule?

No. Risk-based scheduling makes sense: high-value accounts more frequently, low-risk accounts less often or not at all.

Is this better than a password manager's built-in reminders?

Password managers are more convenient. This tool is useful if you can't use a password manager for certain accounts.

What happens when I change a password?

Mark the account as updated in the tool, and the rotation timer resets. Update your password manager too.
