How do I recover my Secret Key for a new account?

I just started a 30 day trial of a 1password account. My Secret Key was displayed on the screen but it told me there's no need to write it down. Then, when asked whether I wanted to store my Emergency Kit I clicked "Remind me Later" and logged out of the website. Now I can't log back in because it requires a Secret Key. Any attempt to log back into my account requires my Secret Key which I do not have. I'm confused why I was allowed to click "Remind me Later" and log off without any warning that I wouldn't be able to log back in.

How do I recover my account and continue my trial? Thanks.

    Hey @Meek

    I haven't received a response to my email, and I'm still unable to continue the trial. Should I just not expect to hear anything until next week at this point?
