# Import via Private Key

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Your** [**private key**](/glossary/definitions/self-custody-wallets/private-keys.md) **allows for full control of your wallet. Do not share it with others.**

* All For One™ is a [self-custody wallet](/glossary/definitions/self-custody-wallets.md). This means that you and you alone should know your private key. 
* By design, the team behind All For One™ does NOT backup your private key for you. This means that if you in any way lose access to your private key, we WILL NOT be able to recover your wallet(s) and any associated crypto assets.
* It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to secure your private key away from prying eyes.
