How I keep my private key safe
</summary>
### Master key
My private master key is only used for the following purposes:
* Add or revoke UIDs
* Add or revoke subkeys
* Change expiry for subkeys or the master key itself
* Sign other keys
My private master key is only ever accessed on an airgapped machine,
with no internet or wireless communication capabilities, no camera or
microphone and no persistent storage. This airgapped machine is booted
with the latest version of [Tails OS](https://tails.boum.org). The
master key is protected by a long and secure passphrase and stored on
an encrypted storage medium, which itself is stored in a safe place.
### Subkeys
My subkeys are stored on an OpenPGP smartcard for daily use. The
smartcard makes sure that the local machine never has direct access to
the keys. It is protected by a pin-code and requires a physical touch
on every cryptographic operation.
### Revocation and expiry
I usually set my master key to be valid for 2 years at a time. I will
always extend it at least 1 week prior to the expiry date. The same
goes for my subkeys, which are set to be valid for 6 months at a time.
If my keys are ever compromised, I have a revocation certificate,
stored in a safe, that I will publish to this website and various
keyservers.

Key signing policy
</summary>
### Certification levels
These are the certification levels I use to sign other keys, and the
requirements for each level.
#### Level 0: Generic verification (`sig`/`0x10`)
This certification level is used if I have somehow verified that you
are in control of the email address(es) of the UID(s) to be signed.
No assertions are made about your identity.
#### Level 1: No verification (`sig1`/`0x11`)
This certification level is used when I have not safely verified you
as the keyholder, but I merely _believe_ that you own the key in
question.
#### Level 2: Casual verification (`sig2`/`0x12`)
This certification level is used when I have verified your identity
with at least one form of photo ID (government-issued or equally
secure), that your identity matches that of the UID(s) to be signed,
and that you are in control of the email address(es) of the UID(s) to
be signed.
#### Level 3: Extensive verification (`sig3`/`0x13`)
This certification level is used when I am _absolutely sure_ that you
are in fact the keyholder. This means that either you are someone I
know personally and trust, or that someone I ultimately trust have
notified me that you want a signature and have given me your key
fingerprint in a secure manner.
### Signing process
The signing process consists of 2 steps:
1) Verification will take place either in person or over video call.
If we meet in person, you will give me a physical copy of your key
fingerprint. If verification takes place over video call, you will
give me your key fingerprint verbally.
2) You will have to send me your public key from the email address
associated with one of the UIDs to be signed. I will then sign the
key and send it back to the same email address in encrypted form.
