Understanding the "Keep Me Logged In" Function on a Login Form
What Does "Keep Me Logged In" Mean?
When logging into various online services, you might have noticed an option labelled "Keep Me Logged In" or "Remember Me" on the login form.
This feature is designed to offer convenience and ease of access, but it's essential to understand how it works and when it's appropriate to use it.
Here’s what you need to know about this function.
1. Purpose of the Feature:
The "Keep Me Logged In" function is intended to save your login credentials on the device you're using, allowing you to stay logged into your account across browsing sessions without needing to re-enter your username and password each time.
2. How It Works:
When you check this option, the website stores a small piece of data, known as a cookie, on your device. This cookie contains information that tells the website you've previously logged in and opted to remain logged in.
3. Duration:
The duration for which you remain logged in varies depending on the website’s settings. For some sites, this could be days or weeks, while others might require you to log in again after a shorter period or when performing certain actions. For Evendo.com we will keep you logged in for 14 calendar days.
Benefits of "Keep Me Logged In"
- Convenience:
Saves time by allowing you to access your account quickly without repeated entry of login credentials.
- Enhanced User Experience:
Provides seamless access to services, which is particularly beneficial if you frequently use the site or app.
Considerations and Security Implications
1. Use on Personal Devices:
Only enable "Keep Me Logged In" on private devices that you own or trust. This prevents unauthorized access if others have access to the shared device.
2.Understand the Risks:
If your device is lost or stolen, someone could potentially access your accounts if the feature is enabled. Consider using additional security measures like two-factor authentication for enhanced protection.
3. Managing Cookies:
Regularly review and manage cookies and other stored data in your browser settings to maintain your privacy and device performance.
How to Disable "Keep Me Logged In"
If you wish to disable this feature, log out of the website manually from your account settings, which typically removes the active cookie keeping you logged in.
Clear your browser’s cookies and cache to ensure no saved login session remains.
The "Keep Me Logged In" function offers added convenience when accessing your favourite online services, but it's crucial to use it wisely. By applying this feature on secure devices and being mindful of potential risks, you can comfortably balance convenience with security.
