Through our revocation service, we ensure at any time that certificates can be suspended or revoked quickly and easily. This reliably prevents misuse of the certificate.

• A revocation of a certificate is final. In the event of a suspension, however, this suspension can be lifted within 10 days by means of a code sent by e-mail.
• You can suspend your primesign signing certificate yourself. This requires that you know your registration code (VOUCHER CODE) with which you had the primesign certificate issued. You can find our online service at the following address: cm.tc.prime-sign.com
• To revoke a certificate, however, you must use our telephone revocation service. The prerequisite here is also the knowleadge of your registration code (VOUCHER CODE) with which you had your primesign certificate issued.

If you no longer know the registration code/ VOUCHER CODE you used for the issuance of the primesign certificate, or if you have any other concerns regarding certificate revocation, you can contact us during our regular business hours using the contact details provided.

For security reasons, we kindly ask you to suspend or revoke your primesign signing certificate as a precautionary measure (see "How can I suspend my primesign signing certificate").

• Forgotten your primesign signing certificate password

For security reasons, we cannot reset your password for your signing certificate. You will need to purchase a new primesign signing certificate. We kindly ask you to suspend or revoke your current primesign signing certificate as a precautionary measure (see "How can I suspend my primesign signing certificate").

• Forgotten your primesign online service account password

You can easily reset the password of your primesign online service account yourself: Reset password

Unfortunately, it is currently not possible to change the name in the primesign signing certificate. If you want to use your primesign signing certificate with a different name (e.g. change of name due to marriage), a new registration, and thus purchase of a new registration code for the issuance of a new primesign certificate is necessary.

Depending on the clearing variant purchased, different termination modalities apply:

• FLAT-FEE: Term of the contract: One year. Cancellation is possible no later than three months before the end of a contract year. If you cancel in time, you will not have to pay any further costs.
• PAY-PER-USE: Signature transactions are billed monthly. Term of the contract: One year. Cancellation is possible no later than three months before the end of a contract year.
• CREDIT: Cancellation is not required. After 5 or 10 signature  transactions, the contract ends automatically. If you want to continue using primesign, you must purchase a new primesign signing certificate

Good to know: Cancellation is also not required for "Signing with eID" as the primesign signing certificate thereby created can only be used once for signing, and its validity expires automatically after a few minutes.

We continuously monitor our services and if problems occur, they will be published on our status page.

However, it can happen that SMS providers have difficulties with delivery. To ensure that you receive the SMS-TAN reliably, we offer the option of requesting a new SMS-TAN with "Send new SMS-TAN". This SMS-TAN will be sent via an alternative SMS provider. Sometimes restarting your cell phone can also help.

We continually strive to provide you with the highest level of service.
