Keep Me Signed In: What It Means and When to Use It
The “Keep me signed in” option is designed to make your browsing experience faster and more convenient. When you select this box during login, your sign-in details are saved on the device you are using, allowing you to return to the site without entering your User ID and password every time.
This feature is especially useful if you frequently visit the site from a personal computer, tablet, or phone that only you use. Instead of going through the full login process each time, you can access your account more quickly and continue where you left off.
However, it is important to use this option carefully. If you are signing in from a shared computer, public device, workplace terminal, or someone else’s phone, it is safer not to enable “Keep me signed in.” Saving login information on a device that others can access may put your account privacy at risk.
If you choose to log out manually, your saved sign-in information will be removed. This means that the next time you visit the site, you will need to enter your User ID and password again.
For the best balance of convenience and security, only use “Keep me signed in” on trusted personal devices. If you ever suspect that someone else may have access to your device, log out and avoid saving your login details.
