When you choose to "link your device with another account", you have to enter the password of your account on your first device and a PIN. This PIN is generated by the first device, when you click on "Link this account to another device" (Generally in Settings=>Accounts=>Choose your account=>Link this account to another device), the account will be sent on the DHT during 5 minutes and a PIN is generated at this moment. This is the PIN you need to enter on the other device.
# How can I delete my account?
If you delete the account's archive, your account will no longer exists. If you uninstall Ring, your datas will be deleted too. And nobody will be able to retrieve your account. Never ever.
