Using Public/Shared Computers Safely

Critical security checklist

  • ✓ Use Incognito/Private browsing mode
  • ✓ Check keyboard area for hidden cameras or keyloggers
  • ✓ Never save password when browser asks
  • ✓ Be aware of shoulder surfers watching your screen
  • ✓ Type URL directly (gamwiz.com) - don't use bookmarks or search
  • ✓ Do NOT check 'Trust this device' or 'Remember me'
  • ✓ Avoid entering sensitive info (withdrawals, password changes)
  • ✓ Cover screen when entering password/2FA code
  • ✓ CRITICAL: Click 'Log Out' - don't just close browser
  • ✓ Clear browser history (Ctrl+Shift+Del on Windows, Cmd+Shift+Del on Mac)
  • ✓ Close ALL browser windows, not just the tab
  • ✓ When you get home: Terminate that session in device dashboard

Forgot to log out? Go to Settings → Security → Devices from YOUR device and terminate the public computer session immediately.

Detecting Hijacked Sessions

Warning signs someone else is using your account

Mobile Device Security

Additional protection for phones/tablets

  • ✓ Enable device PIN/fingerprint/face unlock
  • ✓ Turn on 'Require authentication for app' in settings
  • ✓ Enable 'Find My Device' (iOS/Android) for remote wipe if stolen
  • ✓ Avoid public WiFi - use mobile data or VPN
  • ✓ Keep OS and apps updated to patch security vulnerabilities
  • ✓ Don't jailbreak/root device - removes security protections

Frequently Asked Questions

How many devices can I have logged in at once?

No limit, but each device is a security risk. Regularly review and remove devices you no longer use.

If I terminate a session, can I still log in from that device later?

Yes. Terminating just logs out that session. You can log in again anytime (will need password + 2FA if enabled).

What's the difference between 'Log Out' and 'Terminate Session'?

'Log Out' is done from the current device. 'Terminate Session' is done remotely from another device to force-logout a different device.

Should I trust my work computer?

Generally no. Work computers may have monitoring software, and IT can access your data. Use personal device for sensitive accounts.
