@HashtagGo Usually with a signup form you’d create an account for the user as soon as the signup is completed and then validate their email address, etc as a separate follow up step.

For extra properties you want to attach to the user account in Nakama but you **don’t** want to be visible to other users you’d store it in a storage object with a private read (1) and private write (1) configured on the object. That object belongs to the user and can only be read or written by them.
