@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ This chapter discusses the handling of private key material within OpenPGP.
Private key material is associated with component keys, which are integral parts of [OpenPGP certificates](certificates_chapter). For a discussion of packet structure internals, see the chapter {ref}`zoom_private`.
## "Certificates" and "private keys" explained
## Terminology: "certificates" and "private keys"
Recall that in this document, the term *OpenPGP certificate* refers to what are commonly known as "OpenPGP public keys." OpenPGP certificates are the combination of component public keys, identity components, binding self-signatures, and third-party certifications,
as discussed in the previous chapter ({ref}`certificates_chapter`).
