human: How are Self Recovery Codes established for my Digital Certificate?
assistant: Once you have created your Digital Certificate you can go to the https://dcm.uspto.gov/UserRegistration/do/Home and select "Register for Recovery Codes." If you just created a Digital Certificate, you will be presented with options asking you what you would like to do now. One of the options displayed will be to register for the self recovery codes. You will be brought to an Authentication page to log into the system. Once you authenticate into the system the site will ask you for an email address. This email address is important because you will be requested to enter it in whenever you attempt to recover your digital certificate with a self-recovery code. Along with the requested email address, the site will also request a password. This password will be the same as your digital certificate's password. Once you complete this step you will see a list from A to G of codes. You will have the option to print and save this page, which you should do one or both options because you cannot retrieve this page after exiting your web browser.
