1. Password Power! πŸ’ͺ

Think of your password as the lock on your front door. The stronger it is, the safer you are!

  • Go Long: Aim for a password that is at least 12-16 characters long. The longer, the better!

  • Mix it Up: Don't just use words. Combine uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols like !@#$. πŸ”’

  • Be Unique: Never use the same password for different websites. If one account is compromise, all your others could be at risk. 😬

  • Try a Password Manager: This handy tool can create and remember strong, unique passwords for you, so you only have to remember one master password. It's a lifesaver!


2. Ditch the Password with Passwordless Sign-in! πŸš€

Tired of remembering passwords? We've got you covered! You can sign in without one using our passwordless feature.

  • How it Works: Just enter your email address, and we'll send you a special, one-time link. Click the link, and you're in! No password needed, and it's super secure. πŸ“§


3. Watch Out for Phishing Scams! 🎣

Phishing is a sneaky trick where scammers pretend to be a company to steal your information.

  • Don't Click Suspicious Links: If you get an email or text that looks weird, don't click on any links. Go directly to our website instead.

  • Check for Red Flags: Be cautious of emails with typos or strange greetings. 🚩

  • We'll Never Ask for Your Password: We will never email, text, or call you asking for your password. If someone does, it's a scam!


4. ⚠️ Never Share Sensitive Information via Email ⚠️

While email is a convenient way to communicate, it's not a secure way to share sensitive information. Think of an email like a postcard: anyone who handles it along the way could potentially read what's inside. We will never ask you to provide sensitive information such as Credit Card details etc. via email, texts or calls.


5. Secure Your Devices and Connection πŸ›‘οΈ

The security of your account also depends on the devices you use to access it.

  • Update Your Software: Make sure your computer, phone, and apps are always up to date. Updates often include security fixes that protect you from new threats. πŸ“±πŸ’»

  • Avoid Public Wi-Fi for Sensitive Info: Public Wi-Fi in places like coffee shops can be risky. It's best to avoid logging into important accounts or making payments on these networks.

  • Lock Your Screen: Always use a passcode, fingerprint, or face ID to lock your devices. This keeps your information safe if your phone or computer is lost or stolen. πŸ”
