How to securely log out of Gmail.com

Particularly if you are using a computer that is not yours you have to make sure that you securely log out of gmail.com after you are done reading your emails. This is important to make sure that the next person using this computer is not able to access your gmail account. Signing out of Gmail is quite easy and can be completed using the three steps below:

1. Point your browser to www.gmail.com where your gmail inbox will open if you are still saved in. If you are redirected to the login page you can stop here, you are alrady logged out.
2. Find your profile picture at the top right corner of the screen. Clicking this round profile picture will open a dropdown menu with several options related to managing your gmail account. At the very bottom you will find a link that will allow you to sign out of your gmail account.
3. Once you have clicked the sign out link, you will be redirected to the Gmail log in page. If you want to regain access to your email inbox, you can then use your username and password to log in to your account as it is described above.
