This article digs into how our website’s “Save my User ID and Password” feature actually works. We’ll talk about why we designed it, and how you can use it safely—or not, if you’d rather skip it.
With years of digital security and user experience behind us, we want to show you the trade-offs between convenience and protecting your info. That way, you can decide if this option feels right for you.
What the “Save my User ID and Password” Feature Does
Our login system has an option to store your credentials right on the device you’re using. If you pick this, you’ll get into your account faster and won’t have to type your info every time.
Basically, it cuts down on repetitive typing while letting you decide where and when your details get saved.
How It Works Step by Step
When you sign in, there’s a checkbox labeled “Save my User ID and Password”. If you tick it before logging in, your credentials stay on that device.
Next time you come back with the same device and browser, your User ID and password pop right in. You can get to your account with fewer clicks.
Device-Specific Storage of Your Login Details
This feature sticks to just one device and browser at a time. We set it up that way on purpose—it keeps your login details from spreading around.
Your saved info doesn’t move with you from device to device. That’s by design, not accident.
What “Device-Specific” Really Means
Let’s say you turn on saving on your home laptop. Only that laptop remembers your login.
If you try logging in from work, or on your phone, you’ll need to enter your details again. You also get to choose—do you want to save them there, too?
This means you can set security levels for each device. Maybe you save your login at home, but not on a shared computer at the library. Makes sense, right?
User Control and Personal Preference
Using “Save my User ID and Password” is totally up to you. We know everyone’s got different comfort zones and security habits.
No one’s forcing you to save your credentials. It’s just there for convenience, not a requirement.
When You Might Choose to Use It

Convenience is great, but you’ve got to keep security in mind. That’s why this feature works closely with how you log out.

Best Practices for Using Saved Login Information
If you want to use this feature safely, think about where you’re logging in. A few simple habits make a big difference.
Saving credentials is a handy tool, but it’s best for low-risk situations. Public computers? Probably not the place for it.
Recommendations from a Security Perspective
Alright, let’s keep it simple. If you’re thinking about using this feature, stick to personal, trusted devices.
Don’t mess around with saving your info on public or shared computers. It’s just not worth the risk.
Seriously, always log out before you walk away, even if you think you didn’t save anything.
Take a look at your devices now and then. If you might lose one, or hand it to someone else, probably best not to enable this feature there.
