Google Gmail Signout Procedure

It’s a huge privacy risk to leave Gmail open while using an unknown computer. Fortunately, signing out is a simple process—even if you don’t have access to the device anymore. Here are the four different ways to exit Gmail.

How to Logout of Gmail from a Computer or Laptop

Remember to log out of your Google or Gmail account when you’re finished using it on a shared computer. You won’t be signed out of your Gmail account if you just close the tab.

Open the Gmail website in the browser you used to log in and sign out of Gmail. In order to sign out of your Google Profile, click the Google Profile icon in the upper right corner of your browser window and then click “Sign Out”.

(This button will read “Sign out of All Accounts” if you’re logged into multiple accounts at the same time.) As there is no way to selectively log out of multiple accounts from here, you’ll have to sign out from all accounts.)

You’ll be logged out of the browser in an instant.

However, your email address (but not your password) will be stored in the browser to make future logins easier. If you’re concerned about privacy, the best course of action is to delete your account from the browser completely.

Select “Remove an Account” from the “Choose an Account” drop-down menu that appears.

For faster logins, the browser will keep track of your email address only (and not your password). If you’re concerned about privacy, the best course of action is to delete your account from the browser completely.

Select “Remove an Account” from the “Choose an Account” drop-down menu that appears.

After that, click the red account deletion icon (a minus sign in a circle) next to it.

To remove the item, click “Yes, Remove” on the confirmation pop-up.

Your browsing history will be cleared, including all of your saved passwords.
