# How do I create my My Secret Santa account?

You need a My Secret Santa account to **organize an event** (create, manage and follow your Secret Santa draws). To **take part** in a draw, you don't need an account: your personal invitation link is all it takes.

Go to the [Sign in](https://www.my-secret-santa.org/connexion) page and choose:
* **one-click sign-in**: sign in with Google, Apple, LinkedIn or Facebook. Your account is created automatically, with no password to remember.
* **or an account with an email and a password**: click **Sign up** (under "New to My Secret Santa?"), enter your email address and a password, then confirm your address with the confirmation email ([How do I confirm my account?](https://faq.tirokdo.com/en/article/how-do-i-confirm-my-my-secret-santa-account-1axnz03/)).

|| Your password must be at least 8 characters long, with at least one lowercase and one UPPERCASE letter.

|| By creating your account, you accept the [terms of use](https://www.my-secret-santa.org/content/conditions-generales).

|| Tip: you can also create your draw before signing in. My Secret Santa asks you to sign in at the end to save it: no email is sent to participants without your go-ahead.
