If this is your first time logging, click Generate Keys. Confidencial creates your public and private encryption keys at this time. If you have logged in before, your private keys are assembled at this time.

The private encryption key created during this step is generated on your local machine. The key is then split into multiple parts, with each part stored in a different location. Your private key exists in assembled (un-split) form only on the machine on which you use Confidencial. Confidencial does not store your private key in assembled form on its servers.
