Avoid using the same email address for all your accounts. Keep important services like banking and account recovery separate from newsletters and casual sign-ups to reduce the risk of phishing, hacking, or missing critical alerts.

Use simple security rules to protect yourself: if something feels urgent, pause and take time before acting, since pressure is often used to push bad decisions. If something feels too good to be true, question it carefully, because real opportunities rarely come without effort, risk, or limits. If something feels strange or uncomfortable, trust that instinct and avoid it, as personal safety and awareness matter more than politeness or curiosity.

Never share or lend your accounts to anyone, even people you trust, because your account represents your digital identity. Others can make mistakes—such as clicking malicious links or misusing features—and any action taken will be recorded as yours. You are fully responsible for everything that happens on your account, so keep your login details private to protect your security and reputation.
