Account data formats: login, password, 2FA, token, cookie, and JSON
These labels are not interchangeable: each describes a different credential, recovery method, or data container.
Login and password
These are ordinary sign-in credentials. A password does not imply that a recovery email, phone number, or second factor is included; check the exact product page.
2FA and recovery data
2FA is an additional check after the password. The product page should say which second factor or secret is included; the label 2FA alone does not promise access to a phone number or recovery mailbox.
Token, cookie, and session
A token grants an application scoped or session access, a cookie lets a website remember a browser session, and a session file stores client state. Any of them can be as sensitive as a password and must not be shared.
JSON and Base64
JSON is a text data structure, while Base64 represents bytes as text characters. Base64 is not encryption: decoded content may still contain secrets. Never upload delivered files to an unknown online decoder.
