How to keep my account safe?

To keep your account safe, we strongly recommend you to:

• enable 2 factor authentification (2FA);
• use complex passwords: use capital letters, numbers and special characters;
• user long passwords: passwords should be at least 8 characters long;
• avoid using commons passwords, e.g. passwords containing you first or last name, date of birth or other common words like 'password', '123456' etc.;
• avoid sharing your password with other persons or store them in easily accessible places, like paper notes or any kind of unencrypted applications and devices;
• constantly update your password;
• avoid using same password for multiple accounts and services;
• avoid connecting to your account on public, unsecure networks and devices;
• avoid connecting to your account on devices not owned by you;
