We recommend that you do not sign in to Chrome on a public computer. Even if you sign out of your Google Account in the browser window, you may still be signed in to Chrome. This could allow other people to access your personal information, email, and saved passwords. For more information about privacy in Chrome, check out our lesson on Chrome Privacy and Security.
