Your Gmail account contains lots of private data and information that you don’t like to share with anyone. If you sign in to Google using a public platform and close the browser the browser without signing out of the account, there is a chance that somebody else can have access to your account. This is why it is risky when you use a public device to sign in Gmail account and forget to sign out of it. We suggest making a habit of Gmail sign out when you complete your tasks in Gmail email.
